Yesterday I went to the Proletariat Kroger, figuring it couldn't hurt. I'm glad I did. You see, Sunday we got a little snow. School was canceled yesterday, because the school districts err waaaay on the side of caution here, due to the curvy country roads outside of town.
Last night we got some more precipitation. There's a layer of ice on the wires outside, school is canceled again, some towns in Kentucky have lost power, and the local Twitterverse is joking about having a big slumber party chez whoever keeps electricity.
So. Um. Yeah. What I said the other day? Forget I said it. Because snow + freezing rain = something I don't want to venture out in.
Too bad, too. Alejandro Escovedo is (supposed to be) playing at The Dame tonight, and we planned to go. Guess we'll play it by ear.
If you go tonight, please return home safely.

I hate ice on the roads.

If I remember right you told us in 2008 that the Dame was to disappear. Is it still up ?

Jean, yes, the Dame closed, and the block it was on was demolished. This past September the Dame reopened in a different location downtown. There was much rejoicing.

Why not have the builder who owns the City Council spread kitty litter on the ice. And while you're at it, please stop by my blog and vote for Glory Pearl so she can perform in London. She needs the break. Thankyouverymuch or merci beaucoup.

That's great that the Dame is back--as for the ICE, you already know how I feel about that. As long as I have a warm fire, coffee, beer and books, I won't budge out of the house.
