You're a strange aberration // In this land of potted plants

Buried. Mountains of snow have paved the streets, painted the houses and colored the trees. It is glorious! Just like Bright Eyes says: "Winter came to Omaha and left us looking like a Bride // A million perfect snowflakes now and no two are alike" Can't much improve upon that. Just see:

As pleasing as it is to the eyes/heart, it doesn't do many favours as far as leaving your home goes. So really with finals being in the rear view mirror and no work (for a change) today has been the 'Spring cleaning/deep thinking day'. So far I've come up with:

~ I have added 'Street Name' to the select list of most important things for when I actually get my own slice of the Earth. Working at the Pharmacy you always see the person's address as a means to properly identify them, and there are just so many wonderful ones. Almond Lane. Mockingbird Lane. Moonlight Drive (hello The Doors). I think my favourite one to this point (and somewhat ironic given the current forecast) must be Snow Apple Drive. Lover-ly.

~ I think I have come to the complete realization about the utter importance true dedication is when you are the first car waiting for a green arrow in making a left turn at an intersection. Most any other car down the line is important, but that first car is the true leader. Whatever that car does once the green arrow appears will chain reaction down the line until the next cycle. You can't (CAN'T) be the first car and be on your cell or looking for a disc and delay when it becomes green! Wow that is unreal, and then you are the first or second car that doesn't make it because of that drop of the ball. You have to bring your A-game, I take it as a great responsibility to take that turn with speed and precision. Oh yea.

~ I am really really really getting into this thing called Singularity. Baun sent me a link on it and I thumbed through at first, but the more and more I go here and here, the more it seems I am of this thinking/belief. It just really fills some holes I knew/didn't know I had (btw not pushing things on to you guys, if in fact anyone is reading at all, this is just where I am going. I dislike when I get the impression that people are trying to convert you or someone into something when the believe in something different, but I do like to hear other perspectives while I might hold different feelings)

Well time to figure out how I can dig my auto out of the white stuff. Ciao.
