Winchester Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 [quote name='CatherineM' post='1874374' date='May 24 2009, 02:51 PM']He's got half a dozen of his buddies out there right now sitting on that furniture that was covered in snow just a couple of weeks ago. He's lucky he hasn't gotten the plague or something from it.[/quote] So snow carries the plague? Or his buddies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 A little of both actually. His friends are of the "over 40 and still living at home type." There is something here called snow mold. It's what comes out after a 6 month pile of snow defrosts. Turns out I'm allergic to it. Didn't run into much of that kind of thing in Florida. Lots of regular mold, but not the frozen tundra kind.

The Bus Station Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Awesome story Catherine, thanks for sharing. One of you should write a book ( or better yet, a screenplay ) about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosie O'Donnell would work if she was taller. Bea Arthur was suggested, but she just died. Besides, I looked very young during the time the book takes place, so it would have to be someone 20-25ish tops. Maybe a WNBA player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That would not work then. I have never been 'hot' that I know of. There was a time I looked a bit like Geena Davis, back before you were born, and really big hair was in. Of course, big hair is always in somewhere in the South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmotherofpirl Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 [quote name='CatherineM' post='1874327' date='May 24 2009, 02:09 PM']My husband wrote a half page article for the Lifestyle section of the Edmonton Journal yesterday. It's basically all about me. Here's the [url="http://www.edmontonjournal.com/news/near+normal+love+story/1624486/story.html"]LINK[/url]. I still think the photo is ghastly. The next time he wants to write a love letter, I hope he just leaves it on my pillow. This is why I try to edit all this stuff, it either comes out like stereo instructions, or is sappy beyond belief.[/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
