We got somewhere in the neighborhood of 8 inches of snow on Wednesday. This made me inordinately happy, because we haven't had dick for snow this year. It was great ... white-out conditions, stalled vehicles, horns honking, middle fingers liberally held aloft. I wasn't driving, so all I had to do was sit back, hope we'd make it home, and be moderately entertained by the whole scenario. News in Brief ... 1) Yesterday marked 3 weeks without cigarette-age. My sense of smell has become superhuman. I'm a homosapien bloodhound. The DEA should hire me to sniff packages at the airport. 2) In lieu of a cigarette addiction, I've developed a weird dependence on a generic-brand snackfood called "Shanghai Mix." In Shanghai, apparently, there is great fondness for small sesame crackers blended with dried peas and coated in an unidentifiable orange, somewhat spicy powder. Who knew.
