Weather in North Carolina
What is it with North Carolina and the weather? The news teaser just came on--usually they have some kind of scare tactic crap like "Is your child in danger from a popular breakfast cereal? Tune in at 11 to see!" and you stay up late only to be told "No, we just made that up."--this time they said the dumbest thing I've heard since the last bell rang at school: "Rain and cold, what does it mean for us? We'll tell you at 11."
What does "Rain and cold" mean for us? How about we will be cold and wet? Geeze! I love y'all but folks around here act like anything other than sunny and warm is some kind of apocalyptic sign from Jehovah.
I almost passed a pecan through my nose the first time I was here and the temperature dropped below 32 degrees. "FREEZE WARNING!" the TV intoned, "FREEZE WARNING! Put socks on the dog and turn your faucets on! Morter up the windows and shower with antifreeze!" Funniest thing I ever saw.
Next day I skidded on black ice and slammed into a guard rail, sending a teachers edition Chemistry book into the side of my face.
Stay warm. I'm gonna post my never-fail torn flesh gelatin recipe soon.
