Slicker 'n Sweat on a Doorknob

That's how the local DJ described the roads this morning after an accident closed a major roadway. I don't know anything about sweat on a doorknob but considering how much my car was sliding around, I'd say it's pretty damn slick.
In an effort to recover from all the fun I've been having lately, I'm going to save the posting for another night and get into bed with a good book. Which reminds me, I wanted to do a little book review here. I read The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls and loved it. It's about 4 siblings who grow up in extremely adverse conditions and is written by the third sib. It's no wonder I loved it, right? We may not have faced the conditions this family did (I think the first line of the book was something like, "I'm three years old and I'm on fire.") but we went through a lot and the book made me miss my brother and sisters. There's a point where she's describing a neighborhood brawl they get into and I actually had to put it down for a few minutes, I was all verklempt. Ah, the days of getting scrappy with bullies in defense of the sibs. Kind of like New Years really so I guess some things never change. Anyhow, the Glass Castle. Read it, you'll love it. Goodnight.
