Yup, we're having our first big snow of the season, a good old fashioned nor'easter*.
And all of a sudden, I am my grandparents. I was thinking: well, won't be able to drive anywhere this weekend. I can just stay home and catch up on my reading. Huh? Suddenly I have this flashback to college... driving the morning after a blizzard, sliding all over the road in 12 inches (at least of snow) to get the IHOP (on Erie Blvd, baby!) for brunch because they started serving beer at noon. In college, nothing stopped us from going out. You just put on your winter wear and out you go (the vain wouldn't even put on the winter gear. Some put fashion before warmth). These days I'm becoming a weather baby. It's cold! It's windy! Waaa.. I want to stay inside. How is it possible I am the same person - someone who seems one step away from battling a senior citizen for the last loaf of bread at the supermarket? I cry for my lost youth.. Perhaps I'll get some wine on the way home.

Al - snow itself doesn't suck. The snow storm sucks, cleaning up after the snow sucks, driving in snow sucks.
The day after a snow storm, when it's all clear and the snow is laying there, it's very pretty. And then there is snow ball fights, snow men, snow angels... there is some good.
