A Little Mixed-Up
In the last two weeks, I have been to the office for work-type activities on only five days. Or is it four? I'll go with five because that sounds better.
So many days at home and I'm losing track of what day it currently is, or how many more days until the weekend is over. It is the weekend, yes?
To make matters worse, this morning there was a brief moment when I was sure I had lost my mind. Because wasn't Thanksgiving last week? Wasn't there already turkey and Guitar Hero and cramming small dogs into smaller obnoxious sweaters?
If so, then why would my television be showing me a "LIVE!" broadcast of Chicago's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
I had not lost my mind, neither had I gone back in time to relive the last week a la Groundhog Day, because that would suck and also it was a terrible movie. It's just that Alaska has really nothing better to air on television.
It has nothing to do with any writer's strike, but probably more to do with the lack of snow. I am convinced that we will not have snow for Christmas or the rest of the winter. I am already making plans to move to Canada for some good Canadian snow.
And the falling flakes in Chicago on Thanksgiving morning was more than enough to convince someone to air a week-old "LIVE!" broadcast. And I don't really blame them all that much.
Chicago, please. Send me some snow.

If it wasn't for the fact it'd melt before it got to you, I would quite happily box up all the stuff that fell here this morning.
Pack it in dry ice. It will make it.
hmm, no snow in Alaska, and yet it snowed here in Redmond yesterday most of the day (which around here is never something we need). Indeed, something is mixed up in the world.
