Ever walk outside on a really cold and windy day without checking the weather report first? I did that the other afternoon. Walked right outside and was met by a stong, gusting wind that almost made me take a few steps back. It was as if God took his right hand, stuck it in the freezer, then swooped down and delivered a chilly pimp slap to my face and chest.
Come to think of it, maybe that is what it was. I haven’t been to church in awhile, so I’m a little behind on my tighing and offering. I think the Good Lord Above was trying to say “I didn’t see you in 8:00 or 11:00 service…B*TCH YOU GOT MY MONEY?! Don’t try to hold out on me! I know when you’re holding out!”
Maybe I’m thinking too much. Maybe it was just wind. Or maybe it was a sign from above. Probably the latter, because navigating the ice patches on the sidewalk this morning was treacherous! I did the right thing, shoveling the snow on my front steps and sidewalk, then putting snow salt down to avoid the ice problem. Apparently, none of my other neighbors felt compelled to care about their own safety, or that of people walking past their houses. I should have taken the shovel door-to-door and offered to clear porches for $10 a pop, since I’m the Hustleman.
Instead, I went in the house, and watched Allen Iverson drop 51 points on Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. The funny thing is, the Lakers STILL WON! Granted, Denver played little to no defense, but Kobe pretty much took over in the 4th quarter. As much as I’ve made jokes about Kobe on here, there aren’t too many people in the league wose games are on the same PLANET as that guy. Tim Duncan obviously…LeBron James is pretty close…Kevin Garnett and the Celtics are kicking ass and taking names…but that’s about it. My favorite player in the league, Gilbert Arenas, is hurt and won’t be back until February at the earliest, so this season is going to be another Kobe Show, with your usual Vince Carter highlight dunks scattered throughout.
Now that I’m officially off on a tangent, I’ll end this entry. Enjoy your afternoon.
At least you could walk in that wind. I on the other had literally got blown away! I had to ask someone to help me down the sidewalk! It was certainly a day when it did not pay to be petite…
(commenting under my actual blog name for once LOL)
I say to hell with this winter crap! We need to pool our money and get the hell outta Dodge until April.
Who’s with me?!?!?!
I couldn’t open my car doors this morning. The maintenance man got my back door open and I had to crawl to the front to turn my car on. I’m not digging winter so far!
i busted my ass i know that much. i had on 5 inch heals and lil ole me didnt check the weatherman because i never do. i looked real cute until i stepped down the stairs not knowing it was ice and made my way down the stairs on my butt thanks to good ole mr jack frost….damn him!
I think it’s your imagination. If God was gonna b*tch slap you, I think he’d do worse. A little church does keep you honest though.
Ahhhhhhh………:basks in sunny Florida sunshine:
bask in the sun and wait for them killa mosquitoes to come get that ass! lol
