There Is No Life Challenge
. . . that cannot be faced when one is fortified on a regular basis by fresh berries, topped with a little creme fraiche.
(I'll add the accents to creme fraiche if someone will give me the html; I'm busy printing out fiction; I'm going to let them have an important reveal tonight, and I'm shakin' in my boots. More later.)

My Husband Tells Me
. . . that I stop at horse crossings, but only slow down for stop signs.
I've explained that I can tell when there's another vehicle at a stop sign, and when there is not. But a stop sign in and of itself is very unlikely to jump out into the street in front of my car, causing a collision.
Whereas large mammals (horses, deer, humans) will do that every now and again.
He appears unconvinced. Which leads me to believe the Sheriff's deputies will likewise be a bit skeptical, should any of them observe my unorthodox approach . . .

It must me nice to live in a neighborhood that actually has horse crossings. Where I live the only wildlife that ever crosses the road are squirrels.

It is nice. We're very lucky.

I'm curious if the
humans category includes those driving massive weapons of destruction? maybe I've just gotten used to the notion that the other drivers are a bunch of
freakin' lunatics hell-bent on killing or being killed, but I've caught myself completely overlooking on-coming traffic and barely avoiding disaster.
YMMV, of course...

So . . .
We can call it a SoCal snow day. I've caught up on sleep. I dealt with a few of my volunteer commitments, and housework . . . um, no. Shall I watch TV? I'm not walking downstairs unless someone tells me it's going to be worth my while. Is there a new
Boston Legal on?
Or shall I just finish re-reading America's Secret War?
I only listen to you, my readers, on these matters. I used to have an id, but I traded it away for a package of crackers.

You'll have to sleep for a week after all that fun.

Perhaps I don't quite understand where you're taking my metaphor, Mr. Hackbarth.
