snow! snow! snow! oops, melted.

Filed under: vancouver, really not a super crucial topic — meg @ 10:29 am

So I woke up to a foot of snow this morning.

Well, in all honesty, I can’t really gauge what a foot of snow looks like, and I didn’t have a ruler, so I just ASSUMED it was a foot of snow because it ate my boot! Up past my ankle! Woo!

It was even kind of dry and fluffy, which was AWESOME. That’s not the kind of snow we get here at all. I always compare Vancouver snow days to living in a 7-Up Slurpee.

And true to form, that’s what it looks like outside now. Two hours and two degrees make ALLLL the difference.

(Unless the degrees are in Art History and Comparative Literature.)

Blech.

Also? My boots are SOAKING WET.

Also? PEOPLE KEEP POKING AT MY PUFFY COAT.

Also?

Wait, I don’t have another also. I’ll think of one, though.

    Equating/transitioning/melting forms of snow to Comparative Literature: well done. An enjoyable diversion in my day.

    I wish I could complete two degrees in any discipline in two hours.

    One of my twitter friends in Texas asked me to post some pictures of the white fluffies. I quickly obliged with a quick Skitch post. One thing I realized is that my neighbourhood is ugly - it’s new dev with lots of ugly construction. Also, it seemed lifeless because there were NO kids playing outside. I say that NO type of snow comes to life without the sound of kids playing in it.

    Having said that, we’re going to pick-up our six-year old from school. Then the fun will begin!
