The Blizzard of '05

Have no fear, I have survived the great Blizzard of '05. Not only have I survived that, I have also survived many conversations starting with "You are probably too young to remember the Blizzard of '78." To which I respond, "If you by 'too young to remember' you mean 'not alive.' Then yes, I was too young to remember." I find it funny that people refer to storms in this way because in Wisconsin you would pretty much refer to snow storms by the day of the week. Such as, "I remember that great storm of last Tuesday. There was three feet of snow and today we only have two feet." See, this blizzard is kid stuff.

The snow has made things a lot of fun. Yesterday I was outside (yes Mom, I know to my own peril) and I was walking down a side walk which had about one foot of space shoveled out and the snow was up to my waist. There are very few times in your life when you can feel like an artic explorer. Also, I don't need to use the blinds in my ground floor apartment anymore because the snow has pretty much covered my windows. I made the brave trek into work this morning only to find that there are about three people here and we pretty much have a snow day. Yeah, I'll be leaving early.

I plan to take pictures of the winter wonderland as soon as I get a disposable camera. So hopefully I will be able to share with you the wonderful winter wonderland that Boston has become.
