Bah Humbug

We have decided to cancel Christmas. Or at least postpone it for a while and see if a gathering is possible on New Year's Day or that weekend. We're supposed to get anohter 2-6" tonight and then more snow on and off through Saturday. Boo. My parents would never be able to make the drive over two mountain passes that are already treacherous before this next round of snow (which is sure to amount to more than 6" up there!)

And the way around the mountains through Portland is closed due to snow and ice storms.

So yay, good times. I don't really like Christmas anyway, but now I'm just annoyed that I don't even get to snack and drink all day! (Trust me, the two of us have been doing enough of that while snowbound!)

So we'll keep an eye on the roads and see if maybe we can get a reservation for brunch or dinner on Christmas day. But if we end up on the 6-inch side of the snow accumulation on top of all the compact snow and ice we already have, we'll be stuck at home AGAIN.

Boo! Boo and boo!

How was the McDonald's yesterday?

The most notable thing about McDonald's: They have a flat screen TV! Since when did McDonald's install flat screen TV's? And the one by our house is a tiny, unremodeled McDonald's. I wonder what the remodeled ones have. Granite countertops?

Oh well, at least the fries were fresh.

Sucks. Sober and locked up. Sounds like prison.
