I fucking hate snow
Snow is evil.
It creeps up by stealth (or by big globby colors on a radar map, whatever) and buries you with its cold, icy, horribleness.
Snow made my interview get cancelled b/c our town basically shut down yesterday after 9:00 am.
Schools were cancelled (hence, the interview), daycares were closed, stores were closed, streets were nightmarish.
I think we got six inches total.
I stayed home with the boys yesterday. How did I ever do that for four years? (I had my two year old home with me on Wednesday, b/c he was sick. So two days stuck in the house.) UPS came to check on us, driving down the snow covered street in his big brown truck. Who needs a knight in shining armor when you've got that?
Today the sun is out and melting it into muddy slush. We're supposed to get rain all weekend and then Monday...it's supposed to be 64 degrees. Yep. Snow today, 64 on Monday. I love living in the Ozarks.
So today I'll sit and stare out the window at the sloppy street and eat my Necco conversation hearts...but only the white ones. The white ones have this weird wintergreenish-pepto bismolish taste that intrigues me. I like my conversation hearts white, and my jelly beans black.
I keep finding hearts that say "marry me". Just a warning to all the men out there, who think it might be cute to give your girl a handful of conversation hearts - Check them over carefully. She might take them seriously, so watch out for that one. It's sneaky.
One minute you're sharing your candy, the next minute you're engaged, and you have no idea how it happened. So be careful.
I probably won't be posting again until Tuesday, so I'm sorry there isn't anything earth shatteringly fascinating to report.
Have a good weekend, everyone!
Editing to add...This birth months description from a meme REH did over in his neck of the woods. Since my birthday is this month, and February's description sounds good, I'm posting it.
