My Thought Process Today

My brain made that!

Did your brain make anything today?

It is a cold day here in, The Canada.

I'm not sure what the exact temperature is.  My guess would be about -1 °C.  There's a light dusting of snow on the ground and it's not melting; goodbye summer, forever.

I know, there's always next year.  You don't understand though, unless you live here.  Summer flies by, I guess, because we're having fun.  Winter is like three years all wrapped in one.  It just goes on and on and on and on.

And on and on and on and on and on.

And on and on and on and on and on.

And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.

But I refuse to lose my mind so early in the season.

I must remain calm.

Some people think, "Oh look!  Snow!  How pretty!"

I don't know what kind of medication they're on but it sure would be nice if they sold me some.

Soon enough, there will be a blanket of this stuff on the ground, about two feet deep.  It would be deeper but every time it gets windy, the stuff blows around.  I'd hate to be on the other side of the wind.

Eventually, there will be snowbanks higher than ten feet tall in many places because of this wind.  Then we put our children on the top of these naturally forming snow piles and push them so they slide down, for fun, and it's not even considered child abuse here.

Soon, all of the ponds will freeze over.

Then we lace up the skates.  If you don't know what skates are, simply imagine a boot with a sharp knife glued onto the bottom.  That doesn't sound crazy at all.

We even strap those onto our children and it's not considered child abuse.  Everyone has two knives and nobody gets hurt unless they fall on their ass.

Then we drop the hockey puck on the ice and smack it around with sticks.  A hockey puck is a small black disc that easily fits into your adult sized hand.  An inch thick, three inches in diameter, weighs six ounces, and hard as a rock when frozen.  Yes, we do allow our children to get hit by these pucks but don't worry, we wrap the children in specially designed pillows first.

For the more adventurous types, we have snowmobiles.  If you don't know what those are, simply imagine one track of an army tank with a seat on top, two skis on the front, and an engine (sounds like a dinosaur) powerful enough to reach speeds of 100 mph or more.  I've been driving those since I was seven years old and somehow, I'm still alive.

I guess winter isn't that bad.

And the kids get to have a lot of fun.

Give me a beer, a chair, and a beach, though.  Why can't that last for three years?

Maybe I need to move.

Yup.

Please don't forget to support my work here.  I've decided I want to move somewhere warm.  Until then, I guess I'll just freeze my balls off and continue to produce the awesome eye candy you saw above this mess of thoughts.  I hope you enjoyed it.

Have a nice day.

I am going to have to teach my daughter to skate this year. Only problem is... I can't.

I learned when I was four, didn't learn how to stop until I was about seven. I played hockey as a teenager. These days, after an afternoon on the pond, I can barely move the next day. An entirely different set of muscles gets used and they stiffen right up after.

Maybe instead of teaching her, you both can learn, together. Don't forget the helmets.

I can skate 'okay' if I have a stick and puck. The only way I stop is to spin :)
don't ask the Australian to teach skating

A pro player friend of mine was meant to do the teaching but he moved back to Sweden.

I don't feel right on the ice in skates without a hockey stick. It's like what do I do with my hands? The few friends I had who went pro no longer speak to me. I guess they're too important now, or maybe just busy driving fast cars.

what do I do with my hands?

THis is why I have to skate at night.

The few friends I had who went pro no longer speak to me.

THere is a difference of Pro in Finnish leagues perhaps :D

Your best players come here. I think it has something to do with, money.

They only play for the love of the game, much like steem users.

I never thought of skates that way “a boot with a sharp knife glued onto the bottom”!

We're just used to it. Totally normal!

Haven’t put on a pair in eons.

I put them on every year. This winter I'd like to be able to get out every day. It's great exercise, good for the heart and lungs.

Definitely, this year I’m going to try riding my mountain bike year round! 6km to work. And no I haven’t moved out of Saskatchewan!

Do they make winter tires for bicycles? Maybe someone should invent a pedal powered snowmobile.

They do sell studded tires, I’m just deflating the knobby tires a bit for extra grip, we’ll see how it goes..

I'm taking this opportunity and yes! It looks good. I'm such a great supportive guy. So i won't tell you about the endless summer here where it never rains and it's blinding sun everyday. Over and over and over and over. I won't mention the skin cancer on my face or any of that other nasty sunburn stuff... Oh crap i've really gone off the deep end when i was trying to supportive and instead my thought process went south to the dark side.

Maybe, since I'm half frozen, I'll keep longer and won't go rotten.

Brilliant! Why didn't i think of that. We will just keep a long sleeve shirt on you and a safari hat and you will probably keep for at least six months!

I'm originally from Vancouver B.C. but i dried out back in the 70's here. My cousins come to visit and we have to wrap them up so they don't turn into fried red tomatoes

I'm talking about a Saskatchewan winter. It might as well be the arctic.

I just got a shiver thinking about it. My dad was from Saskatoon and my uncle drove trucks for a living. The stories were pretty wild. Stuff like people disappearing and they wouldn't find them until summer when the ice melted. You know, great stuff the adults tell kids!

My dad said when he was young, they couldn't afford hockey pucks, so they'd step on horse manure, flatten it out, let it freeze, then shoot that around with my uncles.

Classic! And buffalo chips for fuel!

Now I know what “blue screen” means.

That's the blue screen of the un-dead. That sounded so cool in my head.

That's fancy. Totally me, in winter, trying to warm up the world with the source of power contained within my hands.

I love the change of seasons it makes me appreciate each one more, but you are right having such long winters makes it easy not to like the cold.

-40 will be here soon enough. I like to experience the cold, but not in excess. Going somewhere warm for a vacation, then coming back, that's hard on the system and the mind; makes it worse. You can get used to it, and I suppose in many ways it's more comfortable than sweltering heat; it's just too much.

"Oh look! Snow! How pretty!"

That lasted for 5 seconds. I took a photo and posted it here. As soon as Christmas is over, the snow is welcome to leave.

You shouldn't depress me like that. I forgot to comment on your art. I like it! Blue alien insectoid creatures, but they're probably blue from the cold. From now until spring, please use warm colours.

I've been thinking of doing a red one like this. I'd say that's half painting, half sculpting. It kept my mind busy for quite a few hours and I'm really impressed with it, even though it's cold and dreary.

I'm teasing about the blue being cold but red is more typical of you. Yes, it is half sculpting. What do you think of having little greenish animal eyes all over it?

I did start to apply fuzzy-like little blue patches within some of the spaces but it became too much so I deleted those layers. I also tried to sandwich another color between two of the blue layers (that each consisted of many flattened layers) but it lost the feel I get from this simple mess of blue. Even the black is actually about the darkest shade of blue in existence.

How many layers is it?

The way I made it, I could easily say each line is a layer. I merge several together, as I go.

But in the end, how many are there?

End the end everything was merged to one layer, then polished up.

Blue is my favourite colour.

The skates and the snowmobiles are fun, but they loose their interest pretty fast when the winter keeps going

on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.

I like blue, but I see red better, if that makes any sense. The different shades of red stand out more in my eyes, so it's easier to work with.

I prefer walking on ground that doesn't threaten your life with every step and the dirtbike is a lot more fun. Leaves on trees. I miss leaves on trees. No bugs though!

Maybe with all this lovely snow to come you could try an make something from it. We don't get much here in Ireland so I have to travel to get my fix.

I might be a grown ass man but I still enjoy building snow forts.

Fuck snow.

Give me a beer, a chair, and a beach

Yes, and I'd stand if I had to.

Fuck shoveling snow. Fuck drinking beer in a snow cave. Actually, that's kind of fun.

Drinking beer and watching the construction of the snow cave also high on the list :D

Maybe I should do a live stream.

Why not. Throw in a @meesterboom type beer review, Canadian style..

"This beer will melt your igloo, eh!" "Oh look! A moose!"

I wonder if that tastes better than Moose-Knuckle.

I am a little drunkish, so pardon me if I make even less sense than usual! Wait, I didn't write anything yet....oh yeah, that piece is beautifully freezing. Er, it's beautiful and it makes me think of icicles. Wait, maybe all the talk about ice skating did that...nope, that is definitely a winter piece! Me likes! I've been really into blue lately, usually I prefer red but blue has been striking a chord....I'll shut up now!

Isn't it nice though! I fucking love that piece and I'll be making more. I might even do a process type post because it's actually quite interesting and far more work than simply pushing a button.

It is, I love it too! A process post, no way! That would be really cool!
