Hiddie Ho There Neighbor!
I'm playing on a pool league this fall. So far, so good. I have lost every match. I win a couple of games but overall lose the match. This is actually good because right now I am unranked. I will be ranked after this week. I want to be ranked low. That way, I will have a bigger handicap than better players. This will result in a lower number of games to win to win the match. Ultimately, this will hopefully parlay into more match wins for me. And I like to win...
Not much else is new. I teach a class at 9 so I need to sign off on this blog post.
PS: My spider bite turned out to be not brown recluse but some other creepy crawly. My arm no longer has a hole in it - just scar tissue and a 'dent'. I guess even when I eventually get myself out of this hellhole, I will have a permanent souvenir. At least it won't cost extra to move it. Baahahahaha.

Hidey ho
Use a hose on the freezer. The water melts the ice, you dry it with some towels and reload your stuff. Much faster than watching the ice melt.
Glad to see some things never change. Your loathing for small town life continues to grow! Oh, you city girl, you!
Looking forward to the Biden-Palin debate. I'm expecting some really good laughs.By 3:58 AM

More than a month...
When I got home and saw the tree from my carport, I freaked out a little. Once it stopped raining and I had a chance to calm down (and maybe drink about five frickin' beers), I saw that it wasn't as bad as I thought. It sheared off the entire overhang on that side of the carport (soffit, fascia, decking, drip edge, gutter, and shingles. It also ripped a large portion of shingles off the main part of the carport and poked a hole through it (which isn't clearly visible in the pics). The upside is that it didn't poke through the house part of the roof, only took off some shingles. It also didn't crash through a window or break my gas line (which comes into the house just about directly below and over 8 feet from where the tree fell. AND, I haven't yet painted that side of the house so the scrapes or other cosmetic stuff from the tree falling or when it gets removed won't be heartbreaking either. I'm just not sure what I did to the house gods to deserve this. First the plumbing, then the foundation, then the roof, and now a big ass tree on the (new) fucking roof! Well, maybe I am not quite over it...

I thought this was going to be so much worse. If the tree had to fall your way, it looks as though it hit perfectly to do the least amount of damage.
Hopefully you won't get involved in a long, drawn out argument with the insurance company and can get it fixed in time to paint.
Aren't you glad you didn't start on that side?
Maybe it's time to put in a fireplace??By 3:12 PM

Inclement Weather
I think an important side note is that the streets and sidewalks were almost ice-free. Bumkins in the country had trees falling on their three mile dirt driveways which is why we couldn't have school. It was fine in town.
