I can't speak for the snow belt, or even the rest of New England, but the first snowfall every year here in Boston, not one person remembers how to drive in snow.
It stands here too, Cindy.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

What is even happening?
I'm surprised, Lilty. I figured Mainers were the least likely to get rattled by it. It would make me laugh here, but it's always too scary. I just spend my time muttering.
Okay, gotta go watch whispering Jack. Goodnight, everyone.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
You'd think so. But it seems like first snow, it doesn't matter. Of course, I live in wussy Southern Maine. We aren't as hardcore as the northern folk.

Some guy named Noah just dropped by. Is this a bad sign?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Honestly, I think people everywhere always freak out about any weather that's not between 65 and 75 and partly cloudy. I mean, I've seen traffic problems due to sun glare, for chrissakes!

But it's always supposed to be 72 and sunny here! It's in the guidebook!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I haven't driven in a bad snowstorm in ages. I miss it when you drive through a drift on the highway and the snow explodes around you as you crash through it.
ION, I can win a staring contest with my cat. This somehow disappoints me.

Even though I know it doesn't, I like the idea of this referring to my staring contests with my cat.
