I know, SNOW. In Alabama. On March 2nd. Don&#8217;t even get me started. I am one pissed kitty. I hate cold. Speaking of cold, the Olympics came to an end last night, and I am a little upset about it! I feel like I didn&#8217;t take full advantage of the great games! I didn&#8217;t even watch closing ceremonies. I am a shaking fan apparently, but they just didn&#8217;t speak to me like have in the past. Is it because they just weren&#8217;t that awesome this year? Or because I have a life?
