Snow in the South, Baby!


It actually snowed here. We haven't left the house all weekend. I'm pretty sure the city doesn't own any snowplows, and now the roads are all covered in ice.
Other Tidbits:

The following is an actual conversation that Jon and I had the other night.

Me - "What are you watching?"
Jon - "It's called, 'Left Behind'. It's about the rapture."
Me - "Is it a documentary?"


Think about it for a minute.

Shifting gears completely -- the pictures below are the result of a gardening project. Jon bought a mushroom growing kit online, and, when he left town for a couple of days, I kind of forgot about the project for awhile.

Real Genius

I'd never seen this ancient Val Kilmer classic, but was sure I'd heard about it. It brings back memories of jr. high GT. What I especially liked was the moral: don't take yourself (smart kids, especially) too seriously. But don't get so lost in having fun that you fail to consider the impact of your actions on the world around you.

Personally, I'm still trying to lear that lesson. Anyone else need a refresher?
