When fighting for freedom, never wear new pants: a typecast.



Click to read it big.

The first snow fell today. It wasn't even real snow, it was the occasional flurry, but everybody went insane anyway. You'd think people that have lived here their whole lives would be able to handle seeing the yearly cold white drifty thingies in the sky, but apparently not.

We eventually got an xmas tree, though. Even if my mom's last-ditch effort didn't work, thus we purchased a pile of crap, and had to take it back to a different store. The second store's paint section didn't look like it had been run over by a truck, but the people were just as fucking nuts, so the experience wasn't much different.

I got the paint though.

This was hilarious. And I thought this only happened in New Mexico, where snow is intermittent enough down in the cities to warrant such behavior. I feel better now, knowing that over-reaction to a change of season must be somehow genetic.

BTW I enjoy your blog, keep writing.

The world is just crazy, that's the only answer. It's Michigan. Michigan! It snows here! A lot! Every year! Same time of year! People need to get over it. I'd understand if it was in fact New Mexico or Georgia or California or somewhere it never really snows, but srsly. In a month, we'll have three feet of the stuff. Why is everybody acting so surprised. ><

And thank you, thank you kindly. :3
