In like a lamb, out like a lion

I spent a few days with the fam last week for Thanksgiving. Despite being quite ill, I enjoyed a great meal, the unseasonably warm weather, target practice, taking the dogs to the park, and racing RC cars. Fun times!

Since being back, I've had some long and somewhat stressful days at work. Tis the season, I suppose.

November, which started out so warm and beautiful, ended with a bang last night. Mid-MO has got a few feet of snow dumped on it. Long stretches of I-70 are closed, Columbia has practically shut down, and I get an adult snow day! Unfortunately, that means I don't get paid, and we lose a big day during this holiday season.

Normally I would wish that I was snowed in with Ed, but he has inexplicably shut me off from his life this week. I knew he was going to be crazy busy this week, and that I wouldn't see him much. But this is beyond what I expected. It's all exacerbated by the fact that we traveled separate ways for the holiday last week. Needless to say I'm left feeling bewildered, a bit hurt, and a tad angry stemming from being hurt. I have little recourse but to just wait for him to contact me. Meanwhile, I will take comfort in the fire we have going and the company of my cute puppy and funny pocket roommate.
