Blizzard

Wow, long time no see.

The title says it all, I am under three feet of snow right now. And I am stoked about it, as well as happier than I have been in months. I think I am far over the whole depression thing now.

While I'm at it, why don't express my sincere and whole-hearted appreciation for snow days! And stoking the fire, and the swish of snow pants as you walk out the door to the beach in the blizzard, and thinking absolutely no good could come of having the flu for three days, then waking up on the third day and discovering you've lost a ton of weight, and my eyes getting five shades lighter in the winter, and Garnier Fructis shampoo, and tea tree conditioner, and cheap gross hot cocoa, and skiing.

Friday was one of the awesomest days of my life. I got up really late by accident, like, 6:00, (told you I was a morning person) and then I pulled a Fred Flintstone on some ice outside. I was about ready to give up and go right back to bed in my snow pants, but then I realized it was kinda funny. And, my school has skiing as a class, so we all trooped over to the little tiny ski hill near my school. (By tiny, I mean MINI. Like it should come packaged in a set of twelve.) My friend somehow scored a lift ride with this incredibly cute snowboarder (is there any other kind?), and I just about died from jealousy. I texted my friend from the top of the "Mountain" (which is actually more like a speed bump), did all the black diamonds, and didn't bail once. I was so ridiculously proud of myself, it was sad. I love skiing. I love snow. I love Fridays.

Anyway.

Now I am doing absolutely nothing. Except reading at the table with my friend. And now we will go to the beach and go on the pirate boat. In the 15 degree weather. Remind me to tell you about that later. Homework.... moooaaaannn. Bye!

Interesting thing of the day - did you know that in 1962, there was an outbreak of laughter? It started with these three schoolgirls, and ended 4 MONTHS LATER. That is just so funny to me, me who laughs entirely too hard at everything. Google it if you don't believe it!
