It is raining out today. The temperatures are a little below freezing, so when the rain reaches the ground it starts to freeze.

This resulted in about a three hour drive to work for me this morning. You did in fact read that correctly, three hours. Due to rain.

The glaring example of how bad it is:

I passed a sign on route 495 South that said the exit for route 111 was in one mile. By the time I reached the actual exit I had seen two accidents that involved police and/or tow trucks, and three other cars spun off the road. That was just on the left side of the highway, I couldn’t really see anything on the right.

I’m feeling like an elastic band that is stretched really tight and it’s all the weather’s fault. I think it’s time to move to San Diego.

Patches is trying to help take care of her sick mummy.

When I woke up I had seven song needing final guitars and all nine needing to be mixed. My mother is in the hospital awaiting her first chemo treatment on Monday, my wife is in bed with the flu, and it’s snowing like crazy outside.

I’m going to try to finish today, I’ve even just finished the guitars on crappy number 3, but I’m not holding my breath.

We all said it. If you don’t get sleep you’ll be sick and then you won’t be able to go and see Mom in the hospital.

Jen woke up sick today after having less than four hours of sleep in two of the last four nights. I’m getting sniffly and sneezy too.

We’ll try again tomorrow.

We’re watching Rocky and it inspired Jen to look up this Classic Carl “Apollo Creed” Weathers moment.

I’ve sung this song before, but is this progress we are seeing?

Hope so.
