The Salt Wars

I am currently fighting in the "Salt Wars." It sounds very dramatic and interesting doesn't it. Like maybe we're fighting some sand people over the last salt deposits on the entire earth and I'm a medic in the paratroopers!! I wish it were, but what it really means is that I have to constantly clean up the salt that "they" ("they" meaning the sand people) sprinkle everywhere to melt the snow on the sidewalks and that people track in all the time. A tad disappointing.

Also, I am going completely crazy because I hate driving this time of year when people are just milling around, only they're doing it in large metal machines that crush human bones and flesh into pulp. All right. The tortellini is done so I am going to go eat it.
