Not Top 10 playlist

Thanks to Steve Jobs we can share some of our finest moments from last nights "blizzard of the decade".

And let me tell you, this is a pretty accurate summation of us as a group (with two lovely guests) in all our glory.

Soooo without further adieu, here's some of Club Belmont's finest singing and snow time activities!

Day 2: Nemo Rages On


Club Belmont survived the night of the "epic" blizzard due to pure will power.

I'd also like to attribute our success to Ks chili, a Disney power hour, the game for horrible people - Cards Against Humanity, a late night storm walk, and alcoholic beverages.

This afternoon we were productive citizens. Just as we finished digging out the sidewalk and the Red Dragon a truck full of men, shovels, and a snow blower pulled up to dig us out. Good work team Belmont! At least they thanked us for doing their job I guess...

The driving ban has since been lifted but who needs cars when we can stroll across the street to the godsend that is Papa Johns. They're my personal hero in this storm, being open like the all star business establishment that they are.

Fingers crossed we make it through another night of Nemo and there's enough spiked apple cider to carry us through. In the meantime enjoy this photo montage:

We're still alive

7:20 pm EST
We're all still alive.  Z made it home and it turns out KT has friends, they joined in on our party.  We started playing Cards Against Humanity.  Its totes innaprops.
I only have a couple updates to make at this hour.
1. My playlist is nasty.  Spotify is my sponsor and tell ya what....they tickle my fancy (lots of Sara Bareilles)
2. A bowl of chilli makes the world go round, add cheese and i get gassy.
3. Oh yea, 2 inches of snow on the ground...max. BUT if you stick your foot in a clogged gutter like the guys on TWC you'll see the puddles are 4 inches deep.  #CripplingStorm

Keep following Club Belmont for real updates of Nemo...

PS: When the fuck did we start naming blizzards?!

Nemo

For those readers not in the east coast area who have been subject to non stop news coverage about the cripling winter storm named Nemo, let me tell you its real, and its here. We're under a state of emergency.  Businesses are closed, I was sent home from work at noon.  Public transportation has been suspended.  Roads are to be clear by 4pm, those out driving will be subject for arrest...(solid use of resources)  

For real time updates on Nemo continue to tune into Club B...

2:58 pm EST
Meesh, KT, and McQ are all hunkered down in the apt.  We've lost M to the inclement weather and havent heard from Z in days so we assume she's fled the East Coast Area to avoid the white out.  Elise the Beast took the storm head on and traveled up to VT to shred some serious freshies. 
Our morale is high, we have bottles upon bottles of vino along with a stocked bar and about 20 assorted 6 packs.  Chilli is in the crock and there's an opened bag of Jax (cheese puffs) on the coffee table. 
We're tracking the storm on TWC and can see snow accumulating on car windshields.

Best of luck to you and yours,

McQ


Storm Watch 2013: Nemo's Coming for CB

Club Belmont's ready for you Nemo. Despite the fact that it's almost 9 AM and I have yet to see the flakes I was promised.

We have copious amounts of wine, beer, and residual Hurricane Sandy tea lights to carry us through. And that's mostly the extent of our preparedness because we refuse to join the crazies in hour long lines to get enough bread to last us till May.

Stay tuned, if we're lucky maybe we'll even capture an ill advised dance party or rap sesh on video.
