Amy had a half-day today at work, so we went out for breakfast.
Brrr!

Check out those sidewalks! Man they are pristine.
View to my right: more snow.

Guess who ISN'T going to be driving anywhere until the spring thaw? Me. Cuz that's the back view of my car.
Not alot of snow.

When she saw me taking a picture of the icicles, Amy scoffed, "You can make an 8 foot icicle," but I never asked her what technique she would use. Maybe she just wanted to make it clear that if the situation called for it, she could make an 8 foot icicle.
Icicle, Icicle, where are you going?

These trees don't have a stereotypical dusting of snow on them, which is too bad, because otherwise they are very satisfactory.
Brrr!

So, I took a picture of the dude plowing the parking lot. He saw me and gave me the thumb's up.
Aaayyyy...

Then he tried to dislodge the snow from his plow so I could see the sticker he had glued to his plow. "Most guys have plain plows," he said, "but mine says 4 X 4." He then promised me he'd get the snow off so I could see, and kicked the plow a few times. Sadly, it didn't work. (But I got a GREAT shot!)
4 x 4!

This is what happened when I said, "Okay, now pose with your plow."
Brrr!

At the time, I felt that there was something really amusing, really hi-larious, about a water ice place covered with a big snowdrift. Now? Not so much.
Brrr!

A local divebar burnt down again. Amy tried to tell me what an insurance nightmare the place must be, but I thought "Deedle-eedle-eedle" in my head until she stopped talking.
Brrr!


This is what the road looked like on the way back from breakfast. Note the mini snow-drift on the hood of Amy's car.
Brrr!

That's it!

Hee Hee Give that snowplow man a BEER!
The sky looks so CLEAN and clear and bright, and cold! I can almost see my breath just looking at the pictures. Breakfast out on a snowy morning sounds like heaven. That's kind of awesome that Amy's Insurance-sensetized mind was stimulated to imagine policies and coverages and claims at the sight of the burnt-out night club.
Here it's just dark and perpetually starting to, or finsihing up, a bit of rain. Temps in the 40's.

The dive bar that burned down again? It's not an insurance nightmare, it's an insurance cash cow. Arson, anyone?

OMG I LOVE SNOW!
Being pregnant and trying to get through 99 degree days frickin' SUCKS, especially when the nights don't cool down by much :| Send me some snow, it never snows here.
