Snow Day!! Yay!!

I skipped work today, logistic issues. But it turned out it was a wise decision, because the office closed anyhow, so now I don't lose any time. All the schools were closed, state offices closed, and a snow emergency was declared. Don't know if the buses are running at this point.

So now here is a three part photo series, called, Don't Park Your Car on the Even Side of the Street During a Snow Emergency in Somerville, Bitches.

Cause Somerville, they don't mess around!

Watching out my window today has been quite entertaining. First the cop came, blaring lights and sirens:



Then quick like a bunny, the tow truck comes:



Buh bye:



Fun times. Good thing I bought a parking space yesterday. I walked to Target in this madness, down a very busy street, and saw at least 10 - 15 people coming out of stores, looking confused, saying out loud, "Where is my car?" And warning other people to move their cars.

Have you ever seen a frozen newspaper before?



Here is a quick video of the snow, don't know how well you can see it. It is coming down at two inches an hour, very quick. This is my first real snowstorm, since I was a kid up north. So I am very delighted, although I am probably the only one who is!



This is how Mogwai weathers the storm, in bed, with her head on my pillow. So sweet!
