Hmm, did I ask for this?

Well, I didn't ask for it but it is all mine. I stay home hiding from the icy roads, blowing snow storms and work. I did Christmas cards, between playing wargames and being uglier than my neighbors. My wife decided, since she stayed home day two, that she should get a picture taken in the snow, and her hair looks great against the dark of the forest - her picture is smiling, and mine is me - I can smile at times but don't really remember when that time was. Oh, it couldn't have been that long ago, nor too far away. I do think I can get better vibes from a real smile shared with a perfect stranger than I can with the cranky old man with attitude face.

Well, back to a long winter's nap... or is it too early for the night before?

LOL- Earl aren't we supposed to hibernate in the winter?

Not since the female of our species decided spending the Winter in caves with hairy old men wasn't cool.

I'm not a smiler either. Strangers think I'm cranky, but it's just thinking hard and hurrying. Stay warm!
