Happy February! Yeah.
Well, I wonder if anything looks new, blogger's out of beta now (has been for awhile) and they made me switch over today. So, if stuff sucks then I'm sorry. If, however, stuff is grand now, well, then, I'm sure that's because of something I did and, therefore, you're welcome. ;p
Did you guys notice I got my first blog comment spam? Pretty cool, huh? Now you can come to my blog to get the hookup on cialis. What can I say, I aim to please. Seriously though, if I get more then I may have to implement some spam protection. It won't be too painful though, so don't you fret none, ya hear?
Yesterday Thea and I celebrated our eight year anniversary. After July we'll have to start our anniversarys over at zero. Humph! Anyway, we went to the Bayou restaurant for some cajun food and jazz. Very nice. Very. We had some of their Alligator Cheesecake - cheesecake with alligator sausage in it. It was savory, not sweet. It was good, though a little spicy thanks to the roasted red pepper coulis.
As a special treat, and because Thea really wanted me to (so she could show some people), I have taken some pictures of the inversion that "occassionally" occurs (read: occurs all winter long) here in lovely SLC. It is a condition in which hot air above the valley creates a sort of forcefield that traps the cold air and, much worse, the pollution below it. Inversions can theorhetically happen anywhere, but are much worse in valleys ('cause the mountains help form walls for the heat forcefield). This trapped pollution (namely particulate matter here in SLC or, in other words, tiny particles of burned wood) creates a sort of orange (if seen from high enough, white otherwise) haze that blocks out the normally omnipresent mountains. So we're left hoping for some strong winds or a nice snow storm to blow that wacky hot air outta here. It's crazy - check it out!
Oh yeah, these pictures were taken from my office. Not a bad view (of the inversion in this case), eh? You should see it when the mountains are actually there. lol

a general purpose blog about whatever, thus the blah in the title. Hopefully not all blah, but sure to be some, read away if you feel so inclined, surf away if not.

Nasty Inversion!
It's pretty though isn't it? We need some non-inversion pics up for comparison!
Alligator Cheesecake is the coolest!
Yuck!
I read, "...non-inversion pick-ups", and was left wondering what such a thing might sound like.
"Hey, wanna check particulate matter levels at my place?"
"What's a nice girl like you doin' in localized weather phenomenon like this?"
"They say it's a forcefield caused by heat. But enough about me...let's talk about you."

@John: lol absolutely hilarious. ^^
You can use the inversion to your advantage should you have children. "Now, Timmy, you had better be a good boy... or the inversion is going to come down and GET YOU!!!"
