The Weather Has Conspired Against Me

so firstly - do you remember when i entered dee's book dish contest to win The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson? and so i did this?

well, i won!!!!!!!!!!! but my computer was being persnickety and didn't like me - so i didn't KNOW until i was in concord helping my gramma celebrate her 93rd birthday (there's a post coming about that) so i needed to e-mail with my iPhone.

and i was planning on leaving today to go to corte madera's Book Passage to see Joshilyn and get her book and have it signed as well as getting Between, Georgia signed and reminding her how we had been but one degree of separation of being best friends ever (b/c of Lydia). i was going to go with my girlfriend, tanya and irene and rose would probably be going with us while curtis watched rhys and max and i was hoping my friend jaye would also be able to meet us there...

but.....the dadgummed weather over the pass (between northern nevada and the bay area) decided to go from beautiful to SNOWY!!! ARGLE!!! it's supposed to snow and snow and be windy and snow this afternoon and all day tomorrow. because i'd have the kids, i'm going to have to skip it. the thought of many many hours on the road due to snow and chain restrictions. i'm bummed. i'm missing out on visiting friends as well as meeting joshilyn and getting books signed etc.

so that's why my little punky girl is frustrated.
