Brrrrrrrrr

Holy crap it was cold this morning! Wind chill was -11 when I went to work at 9:00 am. I knew it was going to be cold...but not that cold. Oh well. And it's cold now...maybe 20 degrees...but it's supposed to get up to 70 again on Sunday for a high. There were even some snowflakes swirling around this morning. Strange.

A very easy day...'outs' turned into 'stays' so we were only here for about an hour and a half.

I am still waiting for packages. According to all tracking info...everything has left Mesquite and Dallas and should be in route to Alpine. Two packages were logged into Odessa at 11:01 last night. It's quite frustrating.

There are a lot of sick people in Alpine. BFFAL has not been feeling well for over a week. She hoped to go to work today and said she had gone to the DR who said she had 'a little bronchitis'...I thought you had it or you didn't...and was given an inhaler. She said it was helping, but now she was sneezing like crazy. She had to pick up more meds at the pharmacy and said she had gone there 3 times and it wasn't ready as they had so many prescriptions to fill! She finally told them to call her when it was ready! But she didn't look too good yesterday when I saw her. Her face was pretty flushed and her eyes were puffy. She looked like she didn't feel well. And the also has 'the cough'. Gail also still has 'the cough'. I still have 'the cough'. It just racks your chest. I know I'm sick of it.

This is Wednesday night...so it's 'Shooting Crap Shows' on the Outdoor Channel. Oh happy day. I think I shall take an hour shower and pretend they will all be over when I come out. I can dream. Even though I think there is nothing on any of the other channels...I find it more satisfying to bitch about these shows. I know Husband thinks I should absorb every word as biblical...but this sponge don't work today. 

"Did you see that??" he will ask, incredulously!

"No". I harrumph. (I have no idea what that word is....but I like it)

"You should really watch this...you might learn something" he states emphatically.

"Why?" I ask innocently. "Are they crocheting a holster??"

"I'm serious...this is very valuable information that you might actually have to use someday."

"Oh...yeah...I see what you mean! Just this afternoon I thought...damn! I need to whip out the old Gatling gun and blow a few cars off the road while I have nothing else to do. Yeah! You're right!! What was I thinking!!" Sarcasm drips off my tongue...all over the floor.

(I will remember that DR. Richard Gatling developed this gun when I am on Jeopardy...)

"Never mind...I just think you might want to learn about these things...you know...broaden your knowledge." Husband is being sincere.

"OK...you're right. Hey! I have an idea! I'll watch this...and take the test after...if you learn how to crochet! That sounds fair." More sarcasm. I chuckle and look at him....What the...!!!

HE'S ASLEEP!! I'll fix him. I cough. And cough and cough and cough some more.

He's awake now. I have changed the channel.

Have you seen Hot in Cleveland? It's funny. Corny funny. I love everyone on the show. It's on in about 15 minutes.

I bet they don't have a Gatling Gun on the show. Well...with this cast...they might!

See you tomorrow!
