Brrrrrrrrrrrr...it’s cold.
Winter is finally here...sort of.
I mean, there’s still 6 weeks and change before winter is
"officially" here.
I know, I did the research...just to impress all of you naysayers
who are pretty sure, I usually don’t.
And you’d be usually right...but this time I did.
I’m adapting, because the last thing I want is to be accused
of “Fake Blogging”.
Which of course I do...on a regular basis...I just don’t
want to be accused of it.
Bada Boom....
Yeah, okay. I know....
I’ve use that particular “hi-larious”
set up more than a few times, in the past.
But it’s been a while and I’m hoping most of you don’t pay attention
to that kind of thing, let alone any of this stuff, at all.
Or you’ve just adapted to “I guess this is the most we can hope for, from this guy?” and let
it slide.
So thanks for your under enthusiasm...I’ve adapted to that,
myself.
Speaking of adaption, which you should know we were—even if
you aren’t paying all that much attention—since I’ve mentioned it now in some
form or another, five times, plus it’s in the title.
So...speaking of adaption—six—and getting back to the point I
was originally making—I think—winter is finally here...sort of.
The days have grown frosty, the nights have grown longer and
I’ve switched from gin to Jameson when it comes to evening cocktail time.
Also, I’m no longer sitting out on my back porch enjoying
the evening sunset, mostly because, now, it usually occurs while I’m enjoying
my afternoon nap.
So instead of sunsets and gin, I’ve moved onto warm toasty
fires and Irish whiskey to unwind from my long stressful day...after my nap.
Which is even more stressful, especially now, with the whole
winter/dark thing creeping back into the picture.
Plus, I can’t remember which pair of long underwear is mine
and which is Z’s.
But it doesn’t really matter since I kind of like the
bunnies and butterflies on the pair I’m wearing now.
Don’t let it be said, I can’t adapt to whatever life throws
my way.
I mean, I can’t...but
don’t let it be said.
Ha...see...I snuck another one right by you!
You never saw it coming.
No adaption there...I mean, by you...not me.
I’m actually pretty flexible when it comes to adapting...which
may or may not be the same thing.
In fact, I’ve finally adapted to that whole puberty thing.
But, man...was that a weird time.
So what’s a little darkness by five O’clock...or sub-freezing
wind chills, in the teens...in the middle of the day...in November?
Who cares if it was 70 degrees just a week ago and our
shorts and beach towels are still hanging on the chair.
We adapt.
Even with the thought of weeks and weeks and months ahead,
of more of the same.
We bundle up, lower our heads into the wind and relentlessly
trudge, through snow and ice.
Or at least encourage those that actually do have to do those
kinds of crazy things, while we sit inside, toasty and warm composing nonsense
for the masses...or at least a couple of people.
It’s what we do...or what I do...sometimes...when I’m not trying
to figure out what I already saw or didn’t see on Netflix...which can be
confusing...unless you adapt and just watch stuff twice...or more than
twice...which is fine, because you don’t remember most of it anyway.
Adaption...it’s what we humans do best...aside from all the
animals and other forms of life who never give this kind of stuff any thought
at all.
But then that’s why we have the Jameson, and they don’t.
Brrrrrrrrrrrr...it’s cold....

i guess we can't complain about the current chilly weather being the lake water was still warm enough for swimming in mid october. and with the toss of a stick, we are thrown into hibernation mode, and the wookie is happy about that bc all that doggie paddling was exhausting.
ReplyDeletecheers to your jamesons and the fire!
Oh, we can complain...cheers back...
DeleteWell, it's hard to adapt when your long johns don't fit under your skinny jeans.
ReplyDeleteVery true...which is why I wear them over my skinny jeans....
DeleteI hope this is the start of a new fashion trend.
DeleteI love sunset coming during the afternoon nap. Isn't it so strange? Why aren't all these people home in bed I think when I go to the Post Office at 4:30 (soon to be 4:00)
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed you actually go out...and at 4:30...so late...among people no less, awake or otherwise....
