I'll Start This Off Without Any Words

Well once again I am reminded that I LOATHE winter weather. Tried to take off to moms to spend the day with Gramps and had to turn (skid) around due to freezing rain. I left the house just as it started raining and had to wait for the geriatric dude at the gas station to pump my gas. By the time I hit Cornell there was already an accident. By the time I drove past after having turned around there were three separate accidents involving a total of 8 cars. Not to mention some jackass attempting to do a U turn.

It is still not above freezing out here in the boonies. Just tried to go move my car and nearly fell on my ass. Tomorrow night they are saying snow. Which sucks cause I can take the Max trains to work but not to pick up kidlet. AND until it defrosts here I can't make it to the store. Which also sucks as I want my Giada Pasta with red pepper flakes, lemon zest, Italian parsley and parm. I have none of any of those =(

We now have water rain on top of a layer of ice. Sucky. So I am sitting here, eating toast and being annoyed BY my toast due to the pasta craving. Watching Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil. Kidlet and I both have colds. Hers gave her a monster headache on Thursday and Friday. Mine is just head and sinus and a super sore throat. She is at her dad's now, I kept her extra since she didn't feel up to moving back and forth, but he picked her up last night.

Who came up with the whole starve a cold feed a fever adage? What if you have both?! I always run warm (99 or so) but it went up with the cold. Does fever trump cold or vice versa?
