Snowed In All Week
Well we've had an unusual bout of terrible weather and have been stuck in the house all week
took the car to the shops monday, and on the way down the hill to the main road i tentatively touched the brake, only for the car to, oh so slowly, pirouette sideways across the main road and end up in the wrong lane facing the wrong way
anyways, it's gotten worse since then, and now we can't even think about driving.
I would have taken a pic of my car which is completely burried under snow, but it hasn't stopped all day, so I snapped this out of the bedroom window:
that car hadn't been there very long btw
it better stop soon, I'm down to my last few drops of bourbon

We call that winter here.
Usual winters we get that snow every few days. That stuff looks wet though, and that's no fun. Hopefully you can get yourself some bourbon soon.

it's unusual where I am to get this bad in march, or any other time really
we're quite unprepared for it in terms of sorting out the roads etc, so it's a bit hairy

I bet, we are getting unseasonable weather here as well (it has been the weakest winter I can remember, but now we are getting lake effect snow, ice, etc.). I just hope this isn't a sign of a drawn out winter. I need teh heat and sun before I kill someone... oh, forget I said that.

forgotten
all that really bothers me about it is that the roads are pretty much impassable
I like a drive with lots of sing-a-long music every day or 2 to clear my head

Looks like good boarding weather.
I'm skipping school tomorrow along with about 25 other people to go snowboarding, going on Saturday and Sunday as well, and probably Monday after that.

I love snow.  Get some whiskey and some soup and go play some snow-football.

we don't usually get snow like this full stop, which is why I felt the need to post
wish I could take a piccy of our cars, one of them is completely burried, the other has only a wing mirror showing.
normally I like it, but I've run out of bourbon, and my new mobo is finally supposed to be delivered tomorrow, so I'm a bit at a loss.
4AM here, and it's coming down heavier than ever, so don't think I'll be getting my mobo

We have a lot of snow here. I love it. Studded tires for the win.
