Combatting Snow

When the night has come

And the land is dark

And the moon is the only. light we'll see
Stand by Me
-Ben E. King

Did I mention that Cocolah.com loves you.
No. Really, really loves you.
Just checking!!

STOP!!! Do you see me poppin' my turtleneck. Yeah kid.
Upgrade your colla?! Then POP IT!!!!

So the snow was coming down all day and every hour I'd look up at the clock and think.....
Hmm I should really head to the supermarket.....yeah i still do my own grocery shopping...keeps me humble.

Finally at about 6pm...lol...yeah I know. I finally decide to get dressed and brave it through the snow cus I'm hungry, gotta make dinner and definitely don't wanna go tomorrow morning.
In my fantasy....ok, close your eyes and picture this, tomorrow morning "insert name" will make me breakfast in bed mmmm yes..... I'll eat, roll over into a fetal position and fall back to sleep...ahhhh. In my dream-state I'll listen to the sound of dishes being washed, closet being reorganized and the bathroom cleaned. siiiiih.

Reality check!! tomorrow morning I'll still be on this computer working...but let's move on cus that's a sensitive subject. AHEM.
As I mentioned in an earlier post I do not own a pair of rain boots so you KNOW I don't own snow boots....really makes no sense cus it's pretty much a necessity if only to ensure the safety of the shoes you do love. I'm still in search of a fly ass pair hold up....let me rephrase that.....A fly ass pair I can afford.

Snowboots for the snow? I said NO!! NO! NO~
AyO NatuRe! You wanna battle me?!?! Let's go! Meet me outside....I can take you. ESPECIALLY in my combat boots! wut?!

I'll throw the snow right back up at cha!! In yo face fool. uh oh...

No offense Mama Nature i was jus jivin'.....eeek!
Respect!

SO!!! I put on my boots and go get a tail to hang on my belt loop but no decide to throw all em on. UH OH!!!

A vintage HOLSTER, Yakblaks of course and then kids...THEN!!!! I pull out this silver grey cropped motorcycle jacket....this is the moment the jacket was waiting for!!!
