UPSTATE NEW YORK DIARY Aug.12 Moved to our new home in New York. It’s so beautiful here. The mountains are so majestic! Can hardly wait to see snow covering them. Oct.14 New York is the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves are turned all the colors and shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through the beautiful mountains and saw some deer. They are so graceful. Certainly they are the most wonderfu1 animal on Earth. This must be paradise. I love it! I love it here!! Nov. 11 Deer season will start soon. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous creature. Hope it will snow soon. I love it here!! Dec. 2 It snowed last night! Woke up to find everything blanketed with white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the drivewày. We had a snowball fight (I won) and when the snowplow cane by, we had to shovel the driveway again. What a beautiful place. I love New York! Dec.12 More snow last night. I love it! The snowplow did his trick again to the driveway. I love it here! Dec. 19 More snow last night. Couldn’t get out of the driveway to get to work. I am exhausted from shoveling. Damn snowplow.

Dec. 22 More of the white crap fell last night. I’ve got blisters on my hands from shoveling. I think the snowplow hides around the curve and waits until I’m done shoveling the driveway. JACKASS! Dec. 25 Merry Goddamn Christmas. More friggen snow. If I ever get my hands on that son-of-a-bitch who drives the snowplow I swear I’ll kill the bastard. Don’t know why they don’t use more salt on the roads to melt the damn ice! Dec.27 More white crap last night. Been inside for three days except for shoveling out the driveway after that snowplow goes through every time. Can’t go anywhere. Car’s stuck in a mountain of white crap. The weatherman says to expect another 10” of the crap again tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10” is?

 Dec.28 The goddamn weatherman was wrong. We got 34” of that white crap this time. At this rate it won’t melt before summer. The snowplow got stuck up the road and the bastard came to the door and asked to borrow my shovel. After I told him I had broken six shovels already shoveling all the shit he pushed into the driveway, I broke my last one over his f-ing head.

Jan.4 Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back a damned deer ran in front of the car and I hit it. Did about $3,000 damage to the car. These damn beasts should be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all in November.

May 3 Took the car to the garage in town. Wouldyou believe the thing is rusting out from that f-ing salt they put all over the roads?

May 10 Moved to Texas. Can’t imagine why anyone would want to live in the Godforsaken State of New York. Sheesh!
