mom report

my mom: got a little stoned and called me up to ask if I ever went on a sleigh ride and if I was gonna go on one this weekend, and then told me a story about her dog walking on all four legs, I forgot to ask but I bet she's gonna make chili this weekend
bingo bango's mom: doing great, seems to be eating a lot of crab cakes, gave me a large jug of kombucha from the store for unclear reasons, and made me borrow a blender for also unclear reasons

hope all your moms are thriving in this time of bad weather, check in on them and make sure they're cooking up good stuff for themselves this weekend. if you're cold, they're cold. I don't have a dad report tonight because I didn't talk to him but allegedly he was taking a nap with Criminal Minds on.

:3: that's adorable! I never had a mom figure after my mom died when I was nine so i like the stories of functional, happy relationships. I'm glad the moms are doing well!

My temp custody deal before court gets my mum to give my boy rides a couple times a week so my mum ends up seeing me and it's always nice to chat a bit and see how she is. I always try to tempt her into eating gas station pizza kuz I think it's the best hot food at 8 am.
Hasn't snowed more than a dusting this year or I'd have been called up for shovel duty like usual. Like she'd have to ask, pshh she just needs to tell me when to have the cars dug out and it'll be sorted.

I honestly question if gluten free, vegan, and keto are healthy. Sounds a lot like bullshit that I'd eat and be lethargic from. I love carbs because I can honestly not function without them. I lost weight eating almost two loaves of white bread a day while condensing muscle and a diff point in life ate 60% noodles and 30% meat and lost weight while building muscle. Meat and gluten are the basis of life for me. maybe just how my poo poo works, ketosis for others can work but it makes me a useless pile. coffee does the same, i'll sit in my chair doing nothing for days if i have coffee but i'll get drunk and want to do planks and see if i can pick up large things and want to do anything

I need some attitude calibration from my orbs in snowy climates.

Say you're out shoveling your sidewalk and somebody comes up walking their dog, in the street. They say hello, then, after they've passed you, hop up onto the sidewalk that you haven't shoveled yet.

Is this a dick move, or am I just being overly-sensitive?

he died so you don't have to worry about your tangentially relevant username. If you want to pursue a god in underground hip hop I highly suggest either the Madvilliany record he did with Madlib, or Operation: Doomsday. I didn't always understand him but once the gate broke I became obsessed with him.

I blame no one for walking on the paths I've yet to shovel, personally, as a person in a Place Where It Snows.

Is the idea that they avoided being close to you? Or that they're packing down the snow where you haven't shoveled yet?

question - is there salt applied in the street or around the cleared sidewalk you were working on? salt is not good for dog paws and it's common that people will try to find a path that is sure to have no salt even if that's on an unshovelled sidewalk

Packing down the snow, turning it into icy footprints that are a bitch to scrape off.

No, they only use sand here. And our street doesn't get sanded or salted.

What I'm hearing is that I need to get over it, basically.

I might be cranky that I'm doing 5 houses every day and only one other house on the block bothers to do anything at all. One of the five is the widow next door to the people who keep packing down icy footprints before I get to that area.

do what i did and move next door to a neighbor who just loves to be busy and owns a snow blower so he clears everything while his dog happily runs in the snow

I'm afraid that's what everybody on the blocks thinks of me, actually, since I went out and bought a 10-inch snow broom after two years of doing five houses.

e: since y'all are indulging me whining, let me finish off the rant



Two of the five houses I do are the back yards of my neighbors. I've been doing their back yards for almost 10 years, hoping that one day they'll do the like eight foot section that's my back yard, and as far as I know neither of them has ever done it. Occasionally, when my neighbor to the west's aging mother was over, the mother would do it. She used to bring me champurrado after I did their sidewalk, so sometimes I'd do their driveway too. She died last year so that's the end of that.

It just pisses me off that everybody seems so selfish. I guess the end result here is that I stop doing my sidewalks too and that's just how the neighborhood works: nobody ever shovels the sidewalk and it's an ice sheet for months at a time. But I think that would make me mad also.

it's winter. it's a tough season. we all need to help each other out, and you are going above and beyond, but now you are snow shovelling at a scale that any minor annoyance is multiplied times five.

i have this instinct where if something needs to be done i'll try and do it, hoping that others will be like "oh better help wash the dishes" or "let us help stack wood" but in practice the response is mostly "oh thank goodness someones doing it i can continue to do nothing"

the map you provided gives me remarkably little. I do get that, yes, someone walked here already and how that effects your shoveling, but really. we all trying to get home or to work and whether you need to use unplowed roads or unshoveled walks I find it a problem for the future.

I only have excellent ideas
singing BYOB carols this morning as the snow begins to fall

I don't know about keto stuff but I love eating vegan although I'm not vegan, I always feel better if I can hold off from using animal stuff in a meal. That cereal looks pretty good and yknow, I don't think I've actually gotten a bowl out, filled it with milk and cereal and dug in since college, so I think the overwhelming nostalgia would make me cry.

Yeah, that was the bad version of a bad drawing.



What I was trying to illustrate is that the front of my house is the back of my neighbor's houses. So I've been shoveling their back sidewalk because I sure as heck am not going to traipse all the way to my 8-foot back sidewalk when there's a foot of snow on the ground.

Drawing that brought me some tranquility, so thanks for spurring me to do so :)
