SNOWING

This morning, on my car radio, I heard Cheryl Crow's version of Led Zeppelin's "D'yer Mak'er" & U2's version of John Lennon's "Instant Karma". None of the new stuff ever turns out to be any good, though I have heard the occasional worthy remake every once in a while. It's snowing. I should hope it doesn't amount to anything. Last February, around Valentine's Day, there was a major blizzard & I'm not ready for another one like that. Gas prices have been going down lately. That's always very good to see. Yesterday, because it was Friday, I ended up having to spend much of the day pigging out on haddock & French fries. I've never been all that crazy about fish but it was cool. I especially enjoyed the potatoes. As soon as I finished "The Possessed" last night, I immediately moved right on to yet another try at Jane Austen's "Emma". I've been trying to find my millions of missing books but they're nowhere in sight so far.
