AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

I have never in my entire life experienced this amount of snow. 

There have been many moments during my time here in Harrisburg, when I have openely said outloud, "Why do people CHOOSE to live here?"   I say it when the humidity is choking you at 6am in the summer; when you step outside and think, snifff "Did I step in something?" and realize how close you are to farmlife; everytime I try to merge onto the highway and the person in front of me breaks; and days like today, when I can't even walk outside because THERE'S SNOW UP TO MY KNEES!!!!!

And yes, K, if you're reading this (although I don't think you do anymore because we now officially live together and you don't really care to learn more about me at this exact moment) you'll tell me that Seattle ain't so hot.  And I would say, exactly.  Its not hot, its not even cold, and never in my life have I ever seen so much snow there.  Well, maybe last year, but that's was a freak incident.

This is like Utah snow.  Which, I've only seen pictures of from my parent's time living there (awhole different topic...).

The dogs love it however.  Once I finally find the cord for my camera, I'll try to show you how much they love it. 

My life is a metaphor right now. Snowed in, boxed in.  Too much snow, too many boxes.  Not enough breathing room.  Its suppose to snow more this week, like Tuesday or something, which means schoool will be all screwy and we'll have to make it up somewhere down the line, because that's how it is here, and to that I say, "Why did you choose to live here, self?"

Plus, I totally spilled milk on my computer yesterday, and the keys stick. Sigh.

  1. 1. At least we throw down some salt here.
    2. I happen to remember an astronomical if not equivalent snow storm crippling Seattle in 2008, in fact I even remember my flight there getting canceled and having to spend an extra night in Philadelphia.
    3. And last but not least, take a look at this: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/22/us/22snow.html
