february

February began with a giant snow storm. The threat of the incoming storm had been present since late last week, and as we both arrived home from work yesterday evening, we thought a trip to the grocery store was appropriate to get some dinner supplies, and while the incoming snow would have been a great excuse for chinese take-out and beer, we are upon 'No Take-Out Month' -Nate is very thankful that it is the shortest month of the year, he really likes pizza. I am for one, hoping it will instill a habit in me to NOT call Jimmy Johns. I get especially sucked into that habit when I am working on a show, and go from class, to work, to a show all night.



Nate curled up in front of the heating vent.

Anyways,so we made dinner,burgers and had a few beers and hunkered down to a nice movie....
or so we thought.We began with a romance movie that Nate had pulled from netflix, after I called the plot line in less than 10 minutes, he got frustrated with me, and found a different movie to watch. We watched The Machinist, which ended up fucking up my life for about 40 minutes, its dark, heavy, and not exactly what I had in mind.....in fact, it led me to believe that there were snow zombies outside, not that the film had anything to do with zombies, it was just dark.

That problem was remedied later in the evening, as my room mate Monica made brownies, we watched The Incredibles, made margaritas and then went to bed.

An excellent result of snowpocaplypse


So, this morning, we awoke to not as much snow on the ground as we had expected, but it is still snowing right now. Made a delicious breakfast, Nate zoned out to CBC Radio 2, and now we are off to do homework and the like for the rest of the day...Who knows if tomorrow will have work/class/practice or anything of the like



We've also decided that dining in, is a copout, if this month is no take out, then we cant just dine in either, that is cheating. That also means that no afternoon pit stops at the food places on campus for a snack.I just asked Nate if we are making The Ugly Mug and exception, he gave me his best puppy dog eyes, and nodded silently, yes.

He says if I want him to survive, he has to go to get his coffee. He also needs his coffee time, he is one for sitting in quiet and drinking his coffee. He likes it, I am willing to let coffee slide for now, March is no caffeine month, I suppose we will have to prepare for this somehow....

Anyways, here is February, no take-out,covered in a storm right now.See you doods later.
