Chasing Shadows, Part Deja Vu
[alarm clock clicking to 6:00 AM]
[Sonny & Cher caterwauling to I Got You, Babe]
Ok, Campers, rise and shine! 'Cuz it's Groundhog Day!
Or, as Brenda here knows it:
"Did I do that?"
...drive around town with Bill Murray looking for a weather forecaster who has no shadow. Which I think makes the weather forecaster a vampire.
Ah, American holidays*.
Today is also the day when we find out if winter will end soon or not.
Hm...
Yeah. Good luck with that, every-state-but-Florida.
So, unless shadowless weather forecasters are run over by rodent and celebrity driven automobiles, I'd say most of you are due to see a lot more of this:
"Squashed octopodes?"
Er, no. I mean this:
"Blue crabs?"
No, no, no!
THIS:
[crickets chirping]
Oh, never mind.
Happy Grounn Dhog Day, y'all.
Thanks to Brenda M., M.Z., Melissa B., Saundra, Karen C., Jamie, & Kevin H., who would like to remind you to never drive angry. Especially with a quadruped.
See you tomorrow, campers!
*Actually, I hear Canadians celebrate Groundhog Day, too. Except their vampire weather forecasters use beavers** to raise the stakes. [insert beaver joke here] [insert 'BWAHAHAHA!' here] [insert apology for beaver joke here]
**May or may not be entirely untrue.
