  • As many of you know, I'm prone to bouts of extreme stupidity. Well, today I had another unfortunate and painful bout. Let me explain first of all that for those you that don't know, we here in the Chicagoland area had a nasty winter storm the other day. It started with ice, then snow and then another layer of ice. This left the snow damn near impossible to shovel, but on the other hand the ice on top made it frozen so that you could walk on it like it was ice. It was actually pretty cool, although it would make your shoes wet, it would not leave them all messy like normal snow would. Well, last night I was leaving Mark's house and while walking out to my car I slipped and fell. Not that big of a deal, after all I think all of us in the midwest have fallen a time or 2 in the snow or ice. In fact, you might remember that last winter (I had a post about it in January of this year) I took one step outside and fell. Well, last night it was a rather comfortable fall, in fact the snow cushioned the blow and it really didn't hurt at all. Ok, so you are probably saying to yourself "Mike, there is nothing stupid about this, get to the fucking stupid part." Today I had to move my car and since I was just about to get into the shower I didn't want to put all sorts of clothes on to move my car. I was wearing shorts and no shirt and just threw a coat on and shoes. Now this afternoon not only is it butt fucking cold outside, its also windy as a motherfucker making it very cold, actually right now its 0 with a howling wind and I'm sure that the wind chill is probably -10. So I go outside, move my car in my shorts and coat. Its so cold that I decide to run back to the house. Well, we had a fresh coat of snow overnight which made things slippery and as you might imagine, I slipped and slammed right the fuck into the ground. This time, it hurt. And it was cold, since I had nothing covering my chicken legs.

    Ok, so I've had a couple of requests to see my private post, so I guess I will have to make it protected instead of private. Originally I thought private meant that some people could still see it, but that is not the case. Of course the worst part about it is that its not like its some sort of juicy post with all sorts of good stuff. Instead its just something that I think makes me look ridiculous, so I made it private. So I hope when you read it you aren't expecting something really good because I'm afraid you might be disappointed.
