Will the Tiger Woods thing ever die? Maybe I should know a little more about it; I'm not sure what all happened to his wife. There's always something to reflect on when these kind of stories hit the headlines, as far as how they represent gender roles in society. But really, you're 30 and think it's funny to join the "I didn't sleep with Tiger Woods" group on Facebook? Give me a break.

And the weather!!!!!!!! OMG it's fucking cold and there's snow on the ground agggghhh

Lenin over at Lenin's Tomb made me chuckle with their satirization of the dreadful weather apocalypse...that oddly enough strikes every fucking year, people, sheesh.

In other news, one of my doggies is missing. I scoured the roads for a few hours this morning, and I'm now trying to decide whether it's worth it to go back out. He stays outside, and takes shelter in a barn across the road and our garage/shack type thing. He's been gone for a couple of days before, but he now has a buddy that tags along with him (White Dog) and he is here, without our baby Leo. So I am a little on edge. A couple of good signs, though: I stepped on fresh dog shit in the yard that only a dog his size would be capable of creating, and there is a freshly-dead killed (as in hunted down) mouse out front too (he's a mouser). Looking and waiting for now.

Also, got some ideas churning...it's the closest I've come to sitting down and writing anything fictional since March of last year, when I had a little break with reality. One would think that type of slip would lend to some creativity, but alas. With saying that, I am reminded of those peeps out there (out where? in cyberspace mostly, I s'pose) who consider their bipolar disorder as a "gift." Ah ha. Now that's crazy.

Edit: I'm sure race was also a factor in calling out Tiger Woods on his infidelity. What would happen if a white big-shot athlete got caught? I'm guessing it would just be any other ol' day of the week.
