Fun Grumbling About the Weather

sprocket in the snowThis week we had a snowstorm and I got to drive to work in it. It was fun, really. I love driving 40mph on the freeway.

Well, in light of all this winter frivolity, I thought I’d share with you two things: a song about the weather and a picture from Sprocket’s run in the snow last January.

First, the song, sung to the tune of “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow.”

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But in here it’s not so delightful
The furnace is turned down low
Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow!

It doesn’t show signs of stopping
And knuckles, they won’t stop popping
I can’t get warmth from the Christmas tree’s glow
Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow!

When its time to go to work
How I’ll hate going out in the storm
But if the heater will quickly work
All the way there I’ll be warm

Oh, my muscles are sore from shiv’ring
And my neck is stiff from hunching
But as long as I have to go
Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow! Stop the Snow!

Now, take a close look at Sprocket’s feet.
