Computers and Snow Plows

I have had an interesting last few days! I started a blog (for all my fans..lol) and a few hours later, when I tried to add to it, the stupid thing kept telling me I had no blog, so I started a new blog, and the old one showed up, so I deleted the new one and the old one disappeared! Argh! So, I pleaded my case to the blogging gods, and started to wait impatiently for help. Then, I noticed that when I posted comments on my blog, I noticed a had a few different identities. Hmm..got me thinking. So, when I clicked on one, there were both my blogs!! So, in a round about way, I am able to start blogging..don't ask me how, but I can! At the moment! We'll see what tomorrow holds! Sheesh! So, that'd be my first complaint..COMPUTERS! Can't live with em, can't live without em! Next complaint would be the stupid snow plows. Now, if you don't live in the lower mainland, then you may or may not have heard about our weather. Let me give you a little summary from the last few weeks: floods and pouring rain, leading to major wind storm with winds up to 120 km/h, destroying barns, grain bins, cars, knocking out power for days, which lead to a huge snow storm of 2 feet in 24 hours, now were getting another 10 or so centimeters, plus freexing rain tonite. Phew..okay, it's been a bit of a roller coaster! And I'm still driving! So here's complaint number 2..the stupid snow plows!!! You'd think they'd be clearing the main roads first, right? And maybe doing some upkeep?? Well, on my way to work Wed. nite, I had to drive 40km/h on hwy 1 (that would be the transcanada!!) because it was worse than the side roads!! Cars are littering the ditches and abandoned for days because tow trucks don't have the time to remove them. Then, I get onto the Fraser Hwy, that would be a secondary hwy. As in, not as important as the number 1. Anyhow, I pass 6 snowplows hard at work!! And they're on the side roads too!! Now, what kind of sense does that make? I mean, don't get me wrong, I very much appreciate the cleared streets, but what about the main hwy? It's treacherous! And I have no other option to get to work, other than the backroads, which are, believe it or not, worse than the hwy. Frustration! So, here's to computers and snow plows..neither of which are working well for me at the moment!!
