Snomageddon Continues…
With another 6-12 inches in the forecast, I am starting to feel that Virginia is now part of the tundra. Instead of a political post, I wanted to share images from yesterday. After shoveling, I decided to take a walk around my community and take some pictures with my iPhone capturing the 30 inches of snow on the ground. It is amazing how beautiful snow can be and how it can capture the senses.
Snowpocalypse 2010: The Return of Insanity
I hate the snow! Absolutely hate it with the exception of the Federal Government going on shut down mode (yay…they aren’t destroying my liberties, so I am happy) and people losing their minds to load up on the essentials (this means beer, wine, Diet Coke (Coke for those not counting calories), ice cream, hot chocolate mix, frozen pizza, potato chips, milk, eggs, bread, toilet paper…anything else considered absolutely necessary for survival that Giant or the other retailers simply ran out of in preparation of Snowpocalypse 2010). The TV stations have decided to go 24/7 with their OMG…we’re all going to die coverage! Everybody is losing their minds, and I am loving every minute of it!
Otherwise, the snow is allowing me to catch up on the much needed sleep, baking, and watching several hilarious SNL episodes on Hulu and lots of TBS. I have a feeling cabin fever will infect me shortly, so it will begin looking like this.
So, in the meantime, I will allow you to have a glance of what winter is really like outside the above ground bunker in lovely Fairfax County.
Went grocery shopping at our neighborhood Giant…no bread (case in point, my pic), no cake mix, no chicken, no frozen pizza!
Bread…well, it’s slim pickings!
No Frozen Pizza…the World’s gonna end!
Forget about the chicken! Who needs it???
Yes, the snow has provided simple beauty. This would include the Caps win against the Thrashers tonight for win #13.
Surviving Tropical Storm Hanna
How am I surviving Tropical Storm Hanna’s rain? I am sitting at home, drinking coffee, watching the rain, catching up on reading, and applying for graduate school.
The rain is beautiful. I am not a fan of the wind, but I love the sounds of pouring rain against the window.
And you know how much I love a good cup of coffee, while watching the weather coverage on TV.
Even, Reesey (this blog-diva’s best friend) loves watching the rain.
