It will spring...

Icy crystals fly;
the bitter wind is blowing.
Only twenty days.

...marching right along...

The end is coming,
winter is almost done.

It's actually past
pretty quickly.

I'm looking forward
to Spring...

These thoughts
come
as it is snowing
heavily
outside.

LOL...

DB.

Bye bye, so long...

It's odd
knowing that somone
will be fired,
when they don't
have a clue.

I had a feeling
it would happen
before too long,
and today was
the confirmation.

Now it's only
when...

Those two growths
on Lemmy's left cheek
seem to be growing larger
as he grows older.

And what exactly are they,
sebaceous cysts?

I'm guessing he
doesn't have them
removed,
because it is a sort
of trademark now.

Ace of Spades

What a vicious smell
this evening,
on the Queen Street
Streetcar.

The so called snowstorm
that the weather forecasters
have forecast today,
has made everything rather damp.

People seem to forget,
that when there is major snow,
the temperature is generally
close to zero Celsius.

On these days when there
is major snowfall,
people wear their heaviest
winter clothing,
and end up sweating under it all.

And to make matters worse,
the heaters on the Streetcar
were making it very warm,
and the ventilation seemed
not to work.

Things smelled
pretty raw.
Like wet dogs.
With wet down filled
coats.

Engorged

When I think of the word
Engorged,
the image that comes to mind,
is a bloated bed bug.

...and the image of this
makes me ill.

But this week,
I have been feeling
engorged myself.

Bloated with air,
not blood.

I can't wait for Spring,
when I will be riding
my bike to work,
once again.

It has been a very
lazy Winter
for me.

I am close
to going
back to
the next
hole in my
belt.

yuck yuck

The other day,
while on the TTC Queen Street
streetcar, there were two
effeminate looking,
gentlemen.

They sat down across from me,
at the back of the streetcar.

I was listening to my new
Zen Micro,
enjoying some good music.

These two men
proceeded to take out their camcorder,
which was an older model,
not as small as current models.

The older looking gentleman
opened the monitor on the side,
and started playing the tape,
which was of a comedy act that they had just seen
at a local comedy club.

Instead of keeping it to themselves,
the volume was loud enough
for most of the people in the back
half of the streetcar to hear.

I could hear it clearly,
even with my earbuds on.

They just had to laugh
and talk loudly in French,
making comments of the video.

Very annoying.

I pulled out my camera,
and wanted to take a picture,
but felt self conscious about it.

There was another guy watching me,
as I pretended to look at
pictures on my camera.

If there was more distance
between us,
I would have snapped it.
