I Still Like Winter

While Brenda was at work, I went and had the oil changed on my car. I don't think of myself as less of a man, because I have someone else change my oil for me. If someone wants to crawl under my car in winter, they can go right ahead. I won't stop them.

People will pay for someone else to cook for them, but no else is going to touch their car. Hmm, let's look at this one more time. Its okay to ingest something cooked by a complete stranger, but you can't trust a person to change the oil on your car. Whatever.

I am starting to wonder if I could live in a state where there wasn't snow. Oh, they say that in California you have everything. The mountains and snow are just hours away from the beach, so you can have the best of both worlds. I personally do not think that it is the same thing. Winter in Wisconsin is not a pleasant afternoon distraction, but more of a state of mind.

Sitting by a window and watching the snow fall is so peaceful. Brenda thought that I was getting depressed, but I could sit looking out the window while listening to music for hours. If I ever do build my own house, it will have to have bay windows and skylights.

I must sound pretty pathetic going on and on about Brenda and me, but I can't help it. Here is another example of us on Friday night.

On Friday night, Brenda and I went by her aunt's house. On the drive over, Brenda was giving me directions. Then she stopped and asked me if something was wrong. I told her that nothing was wrong, I was just waiting for her to bark out the next order. She was telling me when to turn, which was fine. She was also telling me which lane I should be in which was not as understandable. Bark was not the best adjective that I could have chosen to describe her navigational skills. Some discussion followed on what I meant by the phrase barking orders.

Mental note to self. Bark is not a flattering adjective used to describe girlfriend.

Oh, I think something called the Super Bowl is happening today, but I could care less. I just want to shout please let it stop most of the time. I do not want to hear another word about the Packers or football in general for months. Just make it stop.

Once again I have created another terse entry. Perhaps, I will upload a better one tomorrow. I can only hope.
