Lifestyles of the poor and nameless

Let it Snow Let it Snow

Whoever wrote the song "Let It Snow" must not have had to shovel snow a day in their lives. This weekend gave new meaning to "the weather outside is frightful". However, I think this weekend's snow-removal exercise made up for the past month of sitting around stuffing my face and not moving. I am pleased to say that I worked up a sweat while I was outside in 10 degree weather.

The wicked thing about all that snow is that it started on Saturday and stopped promptly on Sunday afternoon....just so there would be enough time to clean up for work on Monday. And no offense to my white friends, but really....what's the deal? If you're a salaried employee, WHY are you so eager to get to work? You're gonna get paid regardless. Let's close work and stay home. Watch a movie, catch up with family and friends or something. Do not get in your 4 x 4 truck with the snow plow attached and try to clear out the street. That's what you pay taxes for...let the city sanitation do its job. Do not hop on your dirt bike/snow buggy and ride through the streets. Shovel your driveway and get back under the covers. Maybe this is why I'm not in charge.

The talk of the town this weekend is that the Philadelphia Eagles won their match against the Falcons so they're going to the Superbowl for the first time since 1981 or something like that. Woop dee doo. Unfortunately, I'm not a football fan and could care less about the Eagles (I know, for some people this is utter sacrilege) so all the celebrations and headlines mean nothing to me.
I'm the only person at work so far.

I'm running around at work in my socks because my boots are so cold (aren't Timberlands supposed to be "weatherproof"?) Or maybe my socks are just too thin. I want to get a pair of those socks that look like gloves for your feet....the ones with individual toes. They are slightly unnerving...especially when they're in those bright, "hey look, I have a rainbow on my feet" colors.

There is exactly one month left until the Bar exam. Yikes!
