The secret word of the day

Hello all who have made it through the exams to read this blog

Is it just me or does everything in our society have a password? It used to be just your bank account. Now it is your computer, your voice mail, your e-mail. Everything requires a password . Are we that paranoid or are people really trying to get us? I know that people are crazy and that is why we need some protection. It just seems like an overload.
We have a different password for every occasion. The passwords of old used to be the sequential numbers or your favorite animal. Now it is a combination of every type of character from all over the keyboard.
Experts say you should make your passwords at least 7 digits long. Now I have to combine my birthday and my dog's birthday! They also say to use characters like !, &, ) to represent certain characters. It is all very confusing.
Oh well as long as my secret is safe with me, I can put up with !+yp1n9 funny.

Grounded day

Dear fellow watchers of wacky weather and other weird things

I did not realize that tomorrow was Groundhog Day. So in an effort to beat out my shadow so we will not have six more weeks of randomness, here I am.
Well it did it again. Snow, that is. This time it started around 8 am. At least most of the state was shut down, school wise. I did see a few cars out early this morning. Granted I was one of them. However, I was out before the snow fell.
So it was half a day of work for some and others it was a whole day out of work. I could not imagine working for a company that one has to go out in the weather. However, I am glad that those people can.
Why is there nothing on television worth watching when you are able to watch? I have flipped through the channels and nothing. Every 30 minutes I hope it will change.
It also seems that dreary weather days make me so tired. They put me in a daze. I don't want to sit at home, but I don't want to get out in the weather. So I end up moping around. Fortunately, I lose consciousness every hour or so.
Good news is that it is supposed to stay above freezing tonight, so what melted earlier and the rain that is falling will not freeze. That is good because then tomorrow morning I will not have to clean up ice on the sidewalks at work. Plus the swerving I do while driving will not be due to the ice.

Stay warm and toasty. I will let you decide whether you want the crusts or not.
