Good Morning! Buenos Dias!

It is -9F below frigging zero, but it will get in the balmy 20's today. The wood stove is cranking. Come on spring! I am ready for 50F degree weather.

It was -1 out when I headed to work this morning. Nippy. And tonight/tomorrow we're supposed to get 6-12" of snow.

I've had enough. I want spring.

It was 54 when I left for work this morning. It's well into the 60 s now and headed for 70. I wish Bogart's would call and say my bike is well.

Got down to zero after dinner the back up to 14F and it began to snow. Last year for Valentine's Day we had almost 3 feet of snow in one day. Busted mt butt cross country skiing in deep powder.

O bullshit.
light a fire, get naked, and twist up a Marley...everyday doesn't have to be summer...I leisurely do shop stuff and loose ends when motorcycles get parked...the world doesn't have to revolve around mc addiction...go take care of the old folks...buy a new tractor...with chains...take the muffler off.

my dogs LOVE cold...they're 12-13 and have trouble on the stairs...the one can't hear worth shit...they get out in the cold and they revert to puppies...and what a joy to get infected with their enthusiasm...stars are nice in winter...and tell me what's wrong with a blowjob by the fire?

look at mankind...and it's the northern european winter guys who kicked ass because the weather sucked and they used their minds to explode in other directions...the equator guys just sat there picking their butts.


I can't ride my motorcycle...whine whine whine.

suck it up.

when the going gets tough.
the...uh... ... ... ... ...

one day you're off to Bennington for 3 days in the spring thunderstorms...you can pat yourself on the back and play daisy chain then.

throw any winter at me you want...I chew it up and spit it out...chicks dig guys with shovels and drip sweat on their alabaster breasts.

I just broke out my Beaner Duck Boots this morning for the ride into work. Even though no one is in the office at all this week I come in for a few hours and piddle around, make sure everything is working and then leave around 11:30 to make a good 12pm lunch meeting. Then I have many other little tasks to keep me busy for the rest of the day and finally I come back home early and surprise the wife with a nice dinner already prepared for her when she gets home. She makes a really nice living as well so it pays to stay on her good side! Monday is Presidents day and the markets are closed so my wife and i are off. I plan on spending the day down in the garage doing a bunch of mods! :-)

Stayed home today due the weather up here in Northern Maine, lots of snow followed by freezing rain.

I was stationed in Louisiana when I was in the Army and LOVED it. Mind you I am a Maine native, born and raised here until I was 22. Playing golf on Christmas and New Years day, being the only guy in New Orleans in February without a coat, it was great. Think I might move to Portsmount, NH, I hear the winters are milder there.
