As it still hasn't stopped snowing Corey's school was closed today, which he was very happy about.

But I wasn't happy when we went to pick up nanna to take her to the doctors and realised that there was no way our car was going to get off the estate. Snow measured in feet and an untouched road meant we got as far as the corner and had to turn back. Or more accurately, spin back, where the car got abandoned away from it's usual parking spot. So nanna cancelled her appointment and I hit the shops with James on foot. Which wasn't that bad at all, the snow is deep but looked pretty and I was all wrapped up, except for my feet which were freezing. But, what's annoying is a parcel got delivered on Friday and we weren't in. So, clutching the card today I went to the post office, only to be told my parcel had been left in the mail holder on my estate, and the post vans couldn't get up the hill to pick it up so redelivery or pick up could be arranged. So my parcel is right there but I can't get to it. Goodness knows when the vans will be able to get up either.

I am the most complain-ey, I know this.

I'm still very much on a Frank/Mikey kick, though even though some of you are enablers, I won't be pushing my WIPs aside and starting something new at this point. Especially as those WIPs are coming on nicely. Mainly due to mini_nano I've managed to get my 300 words at least in every day this month, even though sometimes it was a struggle, and I'm happy it looks like I'm going to finish the month on a satisfied note.

Man, now it's thundering and lightening while snowing. The hell weather?

Okay, plan for the evening includes coffee and a recently posted fic that may be very relevant to my interests.

I am the most grumpy. I'm so impressed with you people who deal with huge amounts of snow on a regular basis. It took me ages to dig out the car earlier, and then we got stuck! Bah!

Then we went to the local supermarket and the shelves were bare. No milk to be had, no potatoes or fresh vegetables or much fruit. I'm going to get scurvy and die!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Don't say that! You had me thinking about that the other day. How they'd have their own decorated space bikes and how Mikey would take his karate to the next level. Mega jumps and kicks! Spins in the air! And he and Frank would go zooming through space on one bike, music blasting and singing along, Frank's arms wrapped around Mikey's waist.

You should feel virtuous. That's awesome. I'm very happy with how both stories have gone. Though as I've just told you, it's about time I got some s in my gsf.

Luckily they clear the roads pretty well around here. In Philadelphia proper they often don't do the side roads which is horrendous for driving.

Oh, man! I have to go shopping tonight too. need more cat food. *g*

Oh, wow! You have the best ideas! We need that story STAT!!

I'm glad you are happy with your stories. That is the best feeling.

Driving in the snow is scary. A car bumped into the back of us on Thursday. The poor lady driving was almost hysterical.

That story would be amazing! A Mikey/Frank zero gravity sparring scene would be glorious.
