  • People are too freaked about the weather, for sure. Taint so bad, really. Last night, for instance, more snow, variable winds, more cold, more dark. Left work, got home and the lights on the street were out. So decided to stay out where it was actually lighter from all the miscellaneous incidental exterior illuminations and shovel the driveway snow--about 2 inches newly fallen. Well, I go into my snow-shoveling robotic "he's-going-to-have-a-heart-attack" routine just to knock it out and build up a sweat and, in the midst of that whirl of activity, envision myself running in and embracing the blinding blizzard. So what the hell are such visions for, if not to live out? Hence, after shoveling, I take that visionary run--and thoroughly enjoy it! Came back with more energy and mental acuity than I departed with. If only every seemingly-senseless whim in life worked out so well! Motoring on impulse power, live-or-die!
