Blind Prophecy

Ken discusses taking a cat into the snow and suggests an awesome idea:

She would have nothing to do with the snow or the cold air, and kept looking back towards the door, perhaps measuring whether or not she could make it back inside if she jumped.

Which is really how I feel when I see the snow, like I would do anything not to have to be in it. In the back of my mind I begin counting how many packages of Top Ramen I have in the cupboard and how I might have someone do my grocery shopping for free. But what would really be ideal is an over-the-counter drug that would knock me out until spring, something like Vick’s NyQuil Hibernation, the so you can skip winter medicine.

When I get sick, there’s nothing like the Nyquil coma. Blacking out through February and March would be awesome. No Valentine’s Day. No boring after-the-novelty-has-ended snow and ice days. No lame-ass President’s Day Sale advertisements for car dealerships and furniture stores crapping up my television time.
