The Units- Warm Moving Bodies

Sittin’ On A Backyard Fence from Footlight Parade (1933)

CAT PEOPLE!

When I am awake at this ridiculous hour of the morning, I like to watch my favorite comedy show.  All this nasty weather has caused Fox and Friends to have a “poor quality signal.”  It’s like any other day, but without moving pictures.

CNN is merely “no signal” and MSNBC, with the atrocious “Morning Joe,” comes in clearly.

Mother Nature, by means of snow/sleet/freezing rain/rain, only wants me to watch “Morning Joe.”  All morning television sucks anyway.

Nijinsky still dances. Gloeden photographs youth.  Bacon reigns.

Mylene tells everyone to shut the fuck up and my simple head agrees. Some Fuck Buttons intervene with Fever Ray.

Terlene loves the snow. It makes her want to dance, sing, and express herself. She’s a special sort.

"Livin' the dream, baby. Livin' the dream."

Terlene explores more below:

Terlene knows how to kill the winter blues.

Update:  Terlene has a new boyfriend and a new pet.

12 inches! This is the second Snowpocalypse in the last two months.  I moved to the Asheville area almost ten years ago because I wanted snow like this.  YAY!

Here are some photos from around the yard.  Once the sleet and freezing rain stops, Terlene demands a photo shoot.
