It’s my neighbor’s fault, part deux

by Lynn on January 23, 2013

Oh, no. Not again.
My neighbor’s sign is causing snowy weather.

Doesn’t my neighbor know I have deadlines?
Doesn’t she realize I can’t resist snow?


Will she purchase new tires for my sexy minivan to climb the icy hill?
Will she purchase me a pair of new snow pants because my kids stole mine?

 Will she make hot cocoa when I finish my walk?
Will she help me make a snowman who looks like Gerard Butler?

Aw, heck. The snowman can look like Joe Manganiello, too.
Or Brian Urlacher, for that matter. How ’bout Daniel Craig?
Um, I feel like I’ve gone on a tangent .
What was I supposed to do today?

Oh? Write?
Oh, right.

…but I sure wouldn’t mind looking at a snowman right about now.
Especially if he looks like Gerard Butler.

Who will your snowman look like?

I would make you hot cocoa my friend. And I’d probably make my snowman look like “The Rock”. But I’d have to put him in your yard. Ha! Ha!
XoXo,
Kim

For my wife’s benefit I’d make a snowman that looked like Hugh Jackman if I could. But I’d probably end up with something that looked more like Remy from Ratatouille.

And something about your dilemma reminded me of the time in college when I was taking a test and it started snowing. And snowing. And then I started seeing snowballs flying past the window. It must have been some snow, because it didn’t seem like it took any time at all for the snow to rise to the level of the window, and we were on the second floor. I tried to maintain my concentration but finally had to cut the final essay question short. I added a note that no one could be expected to remember the differences between Foucault and Derrida because snow makes it impossible to concentrate on anything. I got the test back with a B+ grade and a note: “Professors can only control tests, not the weather.”

I have to start by saying I’m under five feet tall, so my options are limited. Danny DeVito, perhaps?

A snowman who looks like Gerard Butler? Sunny California, shmummy California, never mind, I LOVE snow. I’ll be right over.

Certainly not Gerard Butler. hate to burst your bubble but my friend’s daughter dated him a couple of years ago and let’s just say he is less than a gentleman. My snowman will look like George Clooney…aaaaaahhhhh!
