So, I lied

After a recent discussion about wintery weather, I decided that I miss the coldness that a former place of residence provided me. When I drove into work last night at 6p, it was 84 degrees and sunny. By midnight it was 34 and freakishly cold with a north wind blowing about 30 miles per hour. I don't miss the cold. I much prefer nice warm to cool weather. For the next several days, it is forcasted to sleet and snow. If you know Texas drivers, sleet and snow bring out the flowers. By that, I mean all the Blooming Idiots. Sleet and snow thankfully are not normal occurances here, but when they happen, absolutely nobody remembers how to drive. Amazingly the driving actually gets worse which is a hard thing to put into perspective. So, if you are going to be behind a wheel today, please remember one thing. If it is icy, etc., although you may be able to speed up to 80 mph, its the stopping part that becomes a bit difficult.
