Pole Shift Preparedness

-
I was watching one of those dooms day prep shows while working out on the treadmill in my basement. These people had a year's worth of food, enough guns and ammo to start a small war, pickle barrels for storing water that they were somehow going to turn into a heat source,  and just about any other survival supply one would need.

Are we ready to handle the earth's the next pole shift?  Since I was already in the basement, it was the perfect time to assess the situation. Off to explore the storage shelves I went.


What the hell was I thinking? This looks like trouble, real trouble I thought - until I looked on the shelf below.


Yup. All good. I'll be sitting in my lawn chair on top of the hill on our back 40, drinking Jameson's and watching the fireworks. Enjoy sitting in your bunker Doomsdayers.

get a good supply of crackers and canned sardines, and you're all set.

During the awful weeks after the Loma Prieta earthquake, I did a lot of - um - medicinal drinking. Since we really thought the end times had come, I figured, what the heck?

Okay, I'm no longer in LA, I'm in Mass myself now.

It looks like I'll need to come over & help if we end up with a pole shift or end of the world scenario.

Just sayin.

Crackers! Love Ritz crackers Tara. I wouldn't mind at all having that as my survival food. I'm a little iffy on the sardines - I may have to go with peanut butter :) Medicinal martinis?

Hi Em! Welcome to Mass! Hope this cold weather isn't wearing on you too much. Yay, I may need some help with that whole pole shift thing!

Well, it's definitely a change from last summer, when I was in Palm Springs and the mercury couldn't seem to get below 110 and liked being higher most of the time.

It's a be careful what you wish for scenario for me. Sorry to drag the rest of you along. ;)

Now Boarding Rows 1 Through 10. Is There Room For Your Carry On?

Here's an interesting texting typo I created last week: And if airline seats get any smaller, I can see this being an actual problem. Can you imagine? I'm sorry ma'am, but there is no way both of you can seat in one seat. You will have to purchase an additional ticket for "her". What would happen then? Would she want the window or middle seat? That's assuming she would even want to sit next to me. I mean, we are together 24/7 so she may want a little alone time, out in the open air, where she is free of any restraint. And what if she is chatty, flapping her lips the whole time? I'm not a big talker when I travel, preferring instead to bury my head in a magazine so I can take my mind off the flight and enjoy my Ativan. I imagine the conversation going as such: She:  I hate that bike seat at spin class. You have no idea what it's like. Me:  Spin class is only 50 minutes. You can handle it. I bought you padded shorts. Those weren't

Things For Which To Be Thankful

My two nieces have had some health issues lately. First E was admitted to the hospital with severe abdominal pain. She ended up with a five day stay. Then my other niece S spent twelve hours in the ER due to a pain in her side (no, it wasn't me). Not feeling up to par can really bring you down. So I am sending them both some well wishes here today and hopefully convincing them that there are worse things in life. There is 80's hair: Oh, and a couple of more things to add to the list: red shag carpet and wrist corsages. Rock me like a hurricane girls, but you sure are pretty in pink (and black). Hey - didn't you have a cat that got lost at one point. I think I see it. ADDENDUM - THOSE PICTURES ARE NOT OF ME. SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION. TO BE FAIR, I HAVE POSTED MY 80'S PIC BELOW:
