honey honey honey will you ever see?

THERE IS SNOW EVERYWHERE. I have spent the entire day in my pjs, dancing around my house like an idiot, wrapping presents, watching Psych, and generally enjoying not having to feel guilty for not leaving the house. :D


These are just from a few hours ago when there was still light. IT IS STILL RIGHT THIS SECOND COMING DOWN. My whole house will probably be buried when I wake up in the morning. I may never be able to leave again.







That's my car. Almost completely lost under the snow. THAT'S gonna be fun to dig out tomorrow. :p





It's just that we almost NEVER get this much snow, and certainly not this early in winter. IT'S EXCITING. I'm supposed to pick my roommate up from the airport tomorrow afternoon, but somehow I don't see that happening so much.

In March of '03 during my tenure in Boulder, we had a snowstorm of epic proportions... something like 3.5 feet over 2 days in the metro/burbs... parts of the foothills and mountains got 7' with 11' drifts. Colorado is used to snow and it never sticks around more than 3-4 days, but that was just insane. The whole state was shut down, so we made the best of it. My bedroom was over the garage and faced the street, so I opened up my window, pointed my speakers outside, and put on some Buena Vista Social Club while we went outside to drink spiked hot cocoa, dig out the cars, and throw snowballs. Great memory. :)

We just really don't get opportunity for that kind of thing around here much! The last time I remember getting any sort of paralyzing snow here was also way back in 2003 or so. Knee-high snow made the half-mile trek from my dorm room to the awesome snow-sledding hill nearly impossible, but totally worth it. I missed the snow!

Hey hey! Happy new year, Jeff! :D (Hee, Matt Pond PA just came up on my Pandora station.)
