Let It Snow

Today is my great-grandmother’s 100th birthday!

We were going to have a huge party today, but due to Snowpocalypse ‘08, nobody from out of state can get here and most people in-state (including my family!) are stranded as well. Plus she (the birthday girl!) has a terribly unfortunate cold.

My aunt doesn’t want to deal with weather issues again so she wants to postpone until February.

Now, my great-grandma might be healthier than the rest of my family combined…but 100 is really effing old. You cannot postpone someone’s birthday party for two months–especially if they are into the triple digits.

My uncle is going off about how he’s never planning a birthday in December ever again. Because we get actual snow every five years or so? Seriously?

He’s even angry that she “decided” to get sick. Really? She decided to get sick? That’s a new one.

I love my uncle, but needless to say, he can be a bit of a self-centered bastard. My mom showed great restraint in not strangling him over the phone when she heard that.

Another New Layout

Another new layout, but this time a bit more permanent as I’m actually fond of this one whereas the last one was far too bright with a header that was too tall (though the file itself was only 6 KB in size).

Amusingly, now that I’ve put this layout up, it’s sunny in Seattle. Last night, when I was making it, it was pouring.
