The Zoo over Ambuscade Street

I have both. Lots, and lots of both.

I get up early today, because I have piles of work waiting for me, and two meetings I have to go to today. I get my car all scraped off, get in, and try to leave.

Note the operative word in that sentance there. Yes, while I had no problem getting out of the Driveway From Hell yesterday, today I find myself completely and totally unable to get my car from the driveway to the road. I stalled out more this morning fighting through the snow than I did the first month I had this car.

So, fine...I decide to break out the shovel and get more of the snow pile gone - this is pretty much all I did Monday. Little problem. I can't get the driver's side door open!!! Still can't, from the inside or the outside. Lovely situation, that - I had to climb out of the passenger's side to get out. Then, I come inside to vent, warm up, and finally decide to do that shoveling. I bundled up again, headed outside....

Only to discover that my snow shovel is...gone. As is my spade shovel. I am awash with feelings of joy and happiness!
