  1. What a difference a day makes…was feeling good about my tree situation this morning but I’m losing chunks of them left/right now. Grateful we haven’t lost power and glad I got some major trimming done last fall, but losing natural cover and beauty around my house is heart breaking.
  2. Team is worlds different with Cisse healthy
  3. Most reasonable people believe an intelligent mix of sources is desirable, with some capital-scale storage projects being wise investments to bring down reliance on fossil fuels in a controlled manner. But this is Texas, so let’s set aside money to pay crypto miners for idle time and make jokes about Greta. The fact we are relying on coal at all in 2023 is regarded as far as I’m concerned. The future is renewables and for the sake of my kids, I’d love to see Texas lead the charge but something tells me that won’t happen with any help from our government…so hooray private industry I guess.
  4. Get your ass down there and straighten them out, soldier. Tell them DickButt sent you
  5. RRISD school canceled again tomorrow. Fuck
  6. Didn’t the state just have a huge surplus? I know they have most of that earmarked for the homeless problem, education and health care but maybe they can spring some loose for infrastructure.
  7. Why do you care about ice on your trash bin?
  8. I’d like to express my gratitude to the city of cedar park, for their newsletter email states ‘we are reaching out to make sure you’re aware the NWS has issued a winter storm warning’.
  9. Here in cedar park I walked outside for five minutes to inspect my own situation…during which I saw two huge branches fall of neighbors trees and hear an ominous buzzing every 90 seconds. I know what PhD said about once-in-a-thousand-years but I’m still getting major snowvid flashbacks from the ice alone.
  10. Weren’t you, just an hour ago, hoping for a work cancellation because you’re still drunk and not interested in navigating the streets?
  11. I don’t care what happens so long as my 6yo goes to school Thursday. The 9yo is cool as shit and we can hang, but his sister is not made for snow days.
  12. As expected RRISD closed tomorrow. Wondering if the slight warm up / non-freezing rain will keep it closed Thursday too.
  13. I figured schools would be closed Tues/Wed. Here’s hoping that doesn’t extend into Thursday…after 2-3 days of kids cooped up they’re safer on icy roads than at home with their burned out parents
  14. “I'm doing like one of them marriage counselors. Charge by the hour to tell some fool he need to bring some flowers home. And charge another hour telling the bitch she oughta suck some cock every little once in a while. You know, keep a marriage strong like that.”
  15. I put the faucet covers on outside, since it’s even easier thing to do than SA’s mom. I honestly don’t think they make a shit, because even with those + towels + hand warmers they still freeze up…but since my pipes seem to live on after multiple freezes I am concluding that PEX flexes enough that it’s not a huge issue. Besides one of the spigots is on a garage exterior wall so it’ll freeze no matter what.
  16. Surprised they didn’t call Wednesday too. I’m just counting on two days
  17. RRISD canceled as well. Isn’t Wednesday supposed to be the worst?
  18. I comment the same every time this happens…armies of (mostly women it seems) berating the Twitter/FB feeds of RRISD anytime there’s weather. My conclusion is that they don’t have jobs. So I’m with you, I want my kids in school so I can work. Feeling like it won’t be bad at all and my kids will be bouncing off the walls while I try to get shit done.
  19. So far RRISD agrees with you. Canceling after school but normal dismissal
  20. One of my close friends in Memphis is dating a cop administrator there and sent me this:
  21. Every year. I can hear the Facebook Karen’s preparing to inundate my districts FB page with demands to close school the rest of the week, just to be safe, because apparently they don’t have jobs and secretly just want to homeschool them.
