Preparing For Battle
by Steve West on December 12, 2010
Yesterday, I saw the first flakes of snow of this winter season. Today, I bought a new shovel.
Brenda and I are preparing for a new house purchase this spring. It's about 50/50 if it will happen. The point being, the more winters I go through here (DC - Home of the Snowpacolypse), the stronger my arguments are to move to Florida.
"But I like Olivia's school, my family is so close, I moved from California to be here"...(whine, bitch, moan). Brenda's arguments, valid as they may be, don't get my spine re-aligned. I hope she noted the snow blower that was on my Christmas list.

Top Ten Top 10
Letterman has practically made a career out of his "Top 10" Lists. I'm shocked he doesn't have the copyright. He does, at least unofficially, as anyone who does anything similar immediately brings thoughts of him to mind. Go »So You Say You Want A 2007 List
Site that collects all the lists from other sites pertaining to 2007. Very handy. Go »Steve West: Punnyman
Recent conversation with Brenda: me: I've only been addicted to one thing my entire life. Brenda: Yeah? What's that? Go »Blue is the Hue
We (Brenda, Lauren and me) just returned from the Kennedy Center where we saw the Blue Man Group. This was Lauren's birthday gift - her birthday was in May and that's when we ordered tickets, but the show wasn't until today. It was worth every cent, and I envy Scott who lives semi-close to their permanent theater in Orlando. Go »It's Not Just Rhetoric
A personal pet peeve of mine is the use of the phrase, "That's just rhetoric." As if the speech being referred to is meaningless and/or uninspiring. The word rhetoric is to be used to define speech designed to persuade. Go »

If there's anything I can do from here to help, just ask. The collapse of the housing market has left a lot of nice houses here for fairly cheap. Florida is wonderful this time of year, but then it's wonderful just about all year.
