maybe i won't come after all. on tuesday it says there will be "a bit of freezing drizzle". what is a bit? am i supposed to be comforted by that? arg tuesday there's gonna be freezing drizzle! wait no just a bit it's going to be great! not to mention that patrick might get stuck at the airport on the way home. because we are supposed to get 11 plus inches of snow. i wouldn't be happy about that one either.

the best part of the weather forcast is the real feel temperature guage. that one really makes you pissed off. i don't want to know that it's going to feel like 0 outside. let me guess that one for myself, ok?

now i'm worried i didn't pack correctly for this trip...but i'm not planning on going out in the snow more than the time it takes to leave the car and go in a heated place so i think i'll live. i know it will be cold in my moms house because it always is even in the summer. i'm prepared for that. i've had many people over to my house that leave their coats on.

i am excited to be rid of my mold allergies from the leaves but i'm exchanging them for my indoor allergies to cats and dogs. that's the other bad part of this trip. i will be sneezy and stuffed up. yes i take medicine but anyone who is an allergy sufferer knows it only helps so much for so long.

wow this sounds like the making of a griswald vacation already....

song lyrics of the day:
omaha
somewhere in middle america
get right to the heart of matters
it's the heart that matters more
