I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

No snow in sunny Seattle.

So bored.

We just had 15 minutes of snow flurries. The mountains have a very light frosting on them. People went to the windows and pointed in amazement. In Utah.

It's been snowing here since 7am, and we've only got about 2 inches. Very light, very fluffy. (Sorry to say, that snowman build was probably a bust - this is not packing snow.)

It's been snowing here since 7am, and we've only got about 2 inches.

Yeah, when Channel 9 was talking about 4-9 inches, I was suspecting we'd be lucky to see the low end of that.

(Sorry to say, that snowman build was probably a bust - this is not packing snow.)

Several people on that FB thread asked about that, and the organizer insists it will work great with spray bottles of water to make the snow stick. I think this is a plan that sounded WAY better in his head.

I'm checking FB periodically for pictures (either of snowmen or dejected hipsters whose snowmen failed).

Very light, very fluffy.

That's Utah snow! That's our famous powder. Give us back our snow!

(please do not send me packages full of snowballs, they'll only melt)

We have snow here! I'm celebrating with homemade chili and cornbread.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yesterday I drove down to DC to drop Dylan off with my parents for midwinter break, today I drove back to Brooklyn. My poor knees are not happy with me spending that much time in the car two days in a row, but since I've got a week off work between jobs I can spend the next five days being kind to them. (And thank goodness for butt-warmer seats. I went out this morning with my mom to take the dog for a walk and my legs were icicles by the time we got back.)
