today's icicles

last night, helen and i dipped into our wine supply, as well as our jalapeño kettle chips (no trans fat! no cholesterol!). the night was full of 500 rum, canasta caliente, sorry! (yes, the board game) and shithead (yes, the card game). we did not quite make it through the third bottle of wine, which means that the games can continue well into tonight.

this morning afternoon, we awoke to what we call a light dusting back in erie, pa. in texas, it is called, of course:


everything around town is closed due to the unstoppable ice. apparently, it is quite slippery. i wouldn't know. my car is encased in ice.

helen is in absolute heaven today. tiny snowflakes lighted on her dreads as she sampled the january snow.

this is the face of a girl who has not tasted snow since 1985.

all the pets are sleeping now. i'm huddled under my quilt of tshirts, and i am going to attempt a few written words since i am officially snowed in by ice storm '07.
