snow day

here are some things i have learned about when it snows:

when it snows everything gets silent. i'm guessing it's because there are more things to buffer the noise and there are less people out and about. at any rate, when it snows the entire city goes silent.

when it snows and you stick out your tongue you can feel the snowflakes but you can't taste them.

when it snows just enough to make everything covered in slush it looks exactly like white cherry icee. exactly.

when it snows and you go to get the mail and your coworker throws a snowball at you it will stick to your coat and everyone will know exactly why you both had to go to get the mail.

when it snows the life force is sucked out of you and you will just want to sleep on the couch for days.

when it snows the most important foods in the entire world to have are milk and bread. and then you realize you don't just sit around eating milk and bread and you should have bought food that is actually good to eat.

when it snows the only items people can use to dig their cars out are large kitchen spoons, brooms and dust pans. (note: the dust pan actually works ridiculously well)

and now some pictures:

Good pictures! Mine are always the same boring backyard (my own) because I fall victim to the life force being sucked out of me and just want to sleep all day.
True dat on the bread and milk.
