    In Shefford Bedfordshire, it is snowing outside, I am tempted to stay up and walk down my road with that lovely chunch sound underfoot.

    I am also tempted to take the RWD Volvo 340 out and have some fun but it is late and I am sure people in my road won't appreciate the sound of high RPM drifting at 1 am in the morning. :)

    You call THAT snow!? Pff.. :D

    We've had a storm for the past 2 days and it's dumped a few feet of snow. I'm tired of shoveling it, I'm tired of driving in it, I want it to go away - now.

    Yeah, got about three or so feet over here too. Big storm just blew over the Great Lakes area. Snow day today, college was cancelled, which is good, I wouldn't have been able to get out of my driveway. ;) That and it gave me a chance to finish my lab reports. :D

    I'll be glad when it's gone though.

    If I could, I'd send you every flake here. I am SO tired of snow it's not even funny. Seems like every week we're having either a snow storm or it's so cold that my nose hairs freeze when I go outside.

    I wish that it would snow like that here.. I love the winter and snow and cold.... errr. well maybe not really cold.. Just cold enough to keep the snow around :D

    One question.. If you hate the snow and cold weather soooo much, why do you stay in NY when it gets like that practically every winter?? huh? huh? why?

    We must live pretty close by... The same things happened here. I haven't had a full week of school for the past three weeks. The last two weeks had Thursday canceled. Now Tuesday and Wednesday are canceled.

    Snowed here in Northern Virginia again tonight coating the already iced up streets. Doesn't seem like much, but the icy roads are a big, big problem in this area as most folks don't have experience driving on snow and ice covered roads. Hundreds of accidents and some fatalities today. Something like 25 or more deaths related to the recent snows on the East Coast already and the number of deaths is climbing. All drivers should be sent to Canada for mandatory three-week winter driving survival course!

    Anyway, here's a little piece of the world out my apartment window. That's a metro station entrance you're looking at with a futuristic wing-shaped glass cover that went up a few months ago. No doubt it was expensive as hell, but doesn't protect anybody from the elements really.
