Snow Sucks

Posted in Blog, Daily Life

I’m back! I can’t believe I haven’t posted anything in so long but I was working on the road. Actually, that just means I had more time than usual and screwed around but it sounds like a decent excuse.

Often when I work on the road I learn something new about different locales. For instance, this time I learned that when a light dusting of snow obscures your view while driving, the solution is not to use the wipers AND wiper fluid. That just creates a windshield slushee that’s apparently impervious to windshield wipers (BTW- I just remembered that up until about age 10, I thought they were called “wincho wipers.” It was quite a breakthrough when the real term dawned on me).

I also learned that when you have a windshield slushee with about 5% visibility and no way to pull over, the solution is not to turn on the defrost full blast. That just makes a small crack in the glass slice across the entire windshield. I love it when the cost of getting to a gig is more than the week’s salary.

Finally, I learned that it’s convenient when the comedy condo is right next door to a 24-hour liquor store. But the term “right next door” has an entirely different meaning when you decide to walk across the powder at 2 am in flip flops.

Snow’s only good for snowboarding and for viewing outside a window while sitting by a fire sipping hot cocoa. I don’t know how people live with that stuff for weeks or months at a time. You all are crazy.

    No good can ever come of leaving southern California.

    Rain is no good either. Especially in 4 inch heels. Left foot slid forward and I landed on right knee. Ow. And oh what a bruise.
