Winter is wearin’ on me today. I just finished shoveling 5 inches of “no significant accumulation” off the driveway, and it’s still coming down. My winter hacking cough just won’t go away, and I don’t want to go see some doc who will overreact to my colorful medical history and order a chest CT that my insurance company will try not to pay for. Some friends at the Hotel aren’t having a good day today and I’m worried about them. If I owned a gun and a freezer, I’d be using the former to blast some holes in the latter. So, melanoma, just don’t f**k with me today.
From The Rolling Stones, “Gimme Shelter”…
Oh, C’s storm keeps threat'ning
Our very lives each day
If we don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, we’re gonna fade away
War, mel friends, it's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
War, mel friends, it's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
Ooh, see the snow is sweepin'
My very street today
Lays like a thick white carpet
Snow plow lost its way
War, mel friends, it's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
War, mel friends, it's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
Claims not paid!
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
Rays murder!
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
Fate burdens!
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
The flood is threat'ning
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away
War, mel friends, it's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
It's just a scan away
I tell you cure, sister, it's hit or miss today
It's hit or miss today
It's hit or miss today
It's hit or miss today
It's hit or miss today
Tutu Brothers

Seriously loved your last line of your post. Thinking of said friends today, too...
ReplyDeleteHi Neighbor! Gotta love CO weather. Where else can you experience 67 degrees one day and a foot of snow the next. I am so with you on the weather. kinda tired of the snow this year. Not the way I wanted to start the day off.
ReplyDeleteI hope this finds that you day was better then predicted and that your friend is doing well.
And yes, the last line of this post is perfect!
Thanks you two. The sun is out and I'm feeling a lot less "postal" today.
