SNOW DAY!

.





Note: No cars were hurt in the making of this snowstorm. Or rather, no little blue Acuras with Wisconsin plates who live in this parking lot. There was a bit of backbreaking labor involved in reversing the snowstorm in order to free said car. These pictures were taken on Wednesday evening (Snow Day! School Closed and Everything!). By Thursday, I had to dig out the license plate. With a saucepan. Cause in apartment life, you're generally able to leave the shoveling, and the shovel, to the landlord. A nice random bystander from Minnesota offered his help, and his plastic trash can lid, so it only took 45 minutes to uncover the car and excavate a 5-foot path from its back wheels to the plowed lane.

I knew that if I believed in winter hard enough, it would finally come to visit.

This is a test. This is only a test. Don't panic. Don't go back to your regularly scheduled programs, they're boring. Have a snow day instead.
