Where'd this shit come from?

Fuck this! I really need to do laundry--I am running out of underwear. The weather wasn't looking so hot, though, but coming home from work, Kendall Square was fine--just a few puddles. I thought, "Eh, not so bad, I can still do laundry tonight!" But my part of Somerville is a MESS. The ground is covered in several inches of slushy freezing water. And my galoshes broke weeks ago. And my sneakers got SOAKED on the seven minute walk from Davis to my house. There's no way I'm trundling a wire cart full of tons of laundry down to the laundromat tonight. Nope.

Well, looks like I'm in for the night, then. If I'd known how bad things would be in this neighborhood, I would have stopped at the grocery store and at least had food to bring home and cook for dinner. :(

Maybe I'll be bad and have Chinese and shake my fist at the weather. I'll give the delivery person a big tip if I decide on that.

Feck feck feck.

my 'winter' boots, which i bought this season, gave up the ghost weeks ago. yes, they were cheap. but also waterproof, and warm.

but i also have a pair of waterproof short boots that i got at the same time - not warm, but waterproof. THOSE i'm wearing today.

yesterday i had on my docs. and i stepped in a puddle that covered my foot. yay cold wet foot!!!

arlington has snow - not much, but snow. and it's all slushy. bleh.

Yeah, I bought myself a good pair of winter boots with the money my mom gave me for Christmas, and I'm glad I did. My galoshes were from Filene's Basement. The back seam on one of them split. Not like a sewn seam, but I'm assuming a glued seam. That was weird. Need new ones.

Remind me to tell you about the Samuel Vimes "Boots" Theory of Economic Unfairness someday. :)

Mother Nature SO needs to go back on her lithium. (And I'd love to hear the boots theory...it sounds familiar.)

You may have heard something similar from me.
Hell, I may have tried to actually 'splain it to you.
