Friday Miscallany | East Texas Photographer

One of the many snow images captured on February 12, 2010 … I’m not sure why my neighbor’s siding doesn’t match on that bottom right portion …

Hello Friday. You should come around more often …

Randomness from this week …

The Thankful: Thanks to everyone for their prayers and positive thoughts sent the bro’s way … he’s beginning to feel more along the lines of a human

The Wishful: Mother Nature needs to stop being a tease. I want another snow day before spring arrives!

The Shocker: Big news coming to the blog on Monday. Here’s a hint … if you’re an Athens Review subscriber, check out the special insert that’ll be in the Sunday (Feb 28th) edition. I’m still a bit on the stunned and speechless side …

The Annoyance: Dear NBC affiliate in DFW, please work on putting out a stronger signal that can withstand 15-20 mph winds. Its sad that I can pick up the DFW affiliates for ABC, CBS, and PBS in nearly any kind of weather … and yet your tower stands right alongside their towers over in Oak Cliff …

And now for the quote of the week …

“Still … that’s just wrong to do to a blizzard, your supposed to eat it not long after you get it to enjoy its blizzardly goodness. Do you not know anything about blizzard eating etiquette?”
– the bro.

Its not often I admit he’s right, but I’ll concede the fact this time around. Mi padre was kind enough to drop me off a Blizzard Full Meal Deal w/ a Chocolate Truffle Blizzard at work yesterday. I saved the Blizzard as an afternoon snack — sticking it in the freezer at work. With the spoon still in it. Three hours later I went in search of some chocolate ‘willpower’ to get through the remainder of the workday. Needless to say, I had to let it thaw for a half hour so I could get the spoon out to eat it … torture, I tell you. So much for willpower …

And … on that note, have a great weekend!
