Thoughts of the day

  • Suck it, Phil.
    You didn't see your shadow and we were supposed to get an early spring.
    Liar!!  
    Really nice, groundhog.
    Who would have thought that marmots don't make great weather dudes? 

  • As much as I complain about the weather on my blog, you would think I could get sponsored by The Weather Channel or something.
    I do spend a fair amount of time caring too much about the weather.
    I don't know when this kicks in but it seems to have ramped up in the past few years.
    Maybe it is me prepping for my retirement when I will sit around with other old men and talk about the weather.
    In my defense, I do remember caring about the weather as a kid because of baseball.
    I played a lot of ball and would always do a lot of amateur meteorology as I stared out the living room window praying that those dark clouds would go away.
    I even came up with a chant.
    Maybe you heard it. 
    "Rain, rain go away. Come again some other day."
    Yep, I am pretty sure I came up with that one. 


  • What in the wide world of fudge is this?
    Aunt Poonie?
    Pound cake?
    Creamalicious?
    Oh, how the teenage boy in me was howling when I saw this ice cream in the store.

Meme dump







Thanks for stopping by.
Talk to you soon.


I will persevere.
I will keep moving forward.
I will be the stream.

  1. Okay I went to the same place with that ice cream. Too funny. We are both 12 aren't we? I too talk too much about the weather but not until June, July, August, Sept. Summer here sucks! Winter, Fall and Spring are divine!

    1. I play and coach softball in the spring so I am always hopeful for decent but I am usually disappointed because spring here in Idaho takes a little bit to make up its mind.

  2. OMG that ice cream!
    Now I want ice cream, for sure.
    And the weather here in Chi has been INSANE. I'm going through a bout of the fucking allergies cause it's been so warm a ton of plants are... flowering. In March.
    And these memes are the best! OMG I'm still laughing about being understaffed. And I did know you say 'me importa un pepino' in Spanish!! LOL

    XOXO

  4. I'm hoping that the weather gods send better stuff your way soon. I LOVE (LOVE, LOVE!) the first meme with other languages.

    1. I am looking forward to telling someone it can oxidize my anus.

  7. We got snow that day too and although our winter hasn't been that bad; I'm over it. I talk too much about the weather also!

  8. The advertising jargon for that ice cream is fantastic. But some of those phrases are even better.

  9. That ice cream sounds delicious in spite of the sketchy name. I am twelve every time someone on the Great British Baking Show makes spotted dick. :) Sorry about the wintry weather. It's been cold(ish) here too but beautiful today with sun. The mountains do need snow and they appear to be getting it. Go, snowpack!

    1. I think I am going to have to try it, Margaret. We finally got some sunshine. Yay!

  10. Before I can slap my balls on something I'm going to have to stretch them out a little.

  11. You got a snowstorm instead of a warm up and we're having a heatwave or two when we are supposed to be cooling down. But we are used to it, nothing realy cools down here until after Easter every year.

  12. That pound cake it hilarious. I talk about or post pictures of weather a lot too. But I like dark clouds.

  13. Everyone complains about the weather but no one wants to sacrifice a virgin to change it. One of life's mysteries.

    1. It's about time we talked about it, Ami. I don't remember hearing about the Mayans complaining about the weather.

  14. I'm going to need to start using the "understaffed" excuse instead of "my mom had another crisis" - it's a lot funnier :) Thanks for the great memes, Mr. S. I hope your weather improves soon.

  15. I hear ya big time on the weather. I think as we get older we just don't adjust as well to the cold, or the ugly, or the too hot. Our level of tolerance is less. I used to love winter and the snow and would purposely go walking in it, go skiing etc. Now, I start counting down til spring as soon as it's fall. I really can't stand winter, the gold, the ugly, the lack of sun etc. Fun meme's...particularly the calm down one.
