I don't think I can sing the praises of the snow often enough. It is so gorgeous here right now! It's sparkly and glittery and crisp. Okay, a little more than just crisp, but it's still fabulous. You can actually see the snow crystals. I always thought they were so small you needed a microscope. Nope, every flake looks like a Christmas ornament. I made a snow angel today.
Okay, enough about the snow already. Nate's in town for a little while, so he is crashing here tonight. We went out to a German restaurant and chatted. Due to his crazy schedule and the whole buying a house thing, he has even less contact with the folks back home than I do, even though he's within a few miles of them. It was a little weird seeing him in this setting, but it was fun. Tomorrow we are both taking our cars into the shop. What is it with everyone having car problems all at the same time? Very strange.
Okay, I am not feeling witty, or even literate tonight, so I will say adieu. My eyelids keep drooping. And yet again, I am waiting for two more parties. Sigh. Well, I'll sleep when I am moving again. That's a little strange. I have to be moving to be at rest.
You know, I was exactly your age when I first saw snow fall and found out that there really WERE snowflakes in snowflakes. I was wearing a long blue woolen coat, and I just stared and stared at them on my sleeves, not wanting to breathe on them. It was magic. I think it's awesome we discovered this at the age where it can become a permanent memory of discovery (and not at, say, three). I was knocked OUT. xox

You two are so cute.
I talked to my mom yesterday and she told me how much it snowed. It sounds heavenly and beautiful.

Hmmm. I haven't lived around snow now going on my fourth year. Prior, I lived around it all my life. I do miss the first few days when it is still so pristine. Don't miss the dirty, salty or sandy mess after that. Keep the underside of your truck hosed off, or run it through the auto carwash occasionaly. Wouldn't want Tach to get a rusty butt! Cheers & All the Best!!

Enjoy the holiday snow for me - it'll be in the 50's and raining here in South Carolina. Sigh.

Oh, I miss snow! It sounds lovely.
About your break-in the other day, Bethany, I just wanted to say YOU KEEP A THOUSAND CDs IN YOUR CAR, YOU LUNATIC?

In response to Alison: I have nowhere else to keep my CDs! Things go missing in the hostel, and it's not like I could have left them somewhere prior to my trip. I can't live without my music for that long! Yes, I have a problem. It's like crack - I can't stop buying them. And I listen to them all! I went through them to see what I could sell... nothing!
