The Blizzard of 2010

Well, compared to all my friends who moved up north, we haven't really had to deal with too much wintery weather. But for Texas, we had A LOT of snow last week! It was definitely more snow than I've seen in my humble Texan lifetime. Here are some pictures I took on Thursday (without ever touching foot on the snowy ground).

The golf course across the street from my apt

The tree outside my apartment window (it snowed constantly all day, but my camera couldn't pick up on the falling flakes)

Snow Day

So we were out of school today. Here's what I did with the unexpected free time:

- go back to bed for a few hours and just lay there thinking about how nice it is to not be at work

- graze on snacks slowly all day

- clean the kitchen, including the burner pans from the stove

- vacuum the entire apt

- swiffer wetjet in the bathroom and kitchen

- build a fire and use up the last of my firewood

- make a facebook event for Josh

- text people

- facebook stalk random people I haven't talked to in a long time and contemplate how crazy it is that so many people my age and younger and married and have kids

- grade some papers

- dance around the apt to music

- clean the bathroom - counters, mirror, toilet, and bathtub

- lay on the couch watching basic TV

- talk to my grandma on the phone

- take pictures of snow (without ever stepping foot on the ground level of my apts)

- have a glass of wine because I've run out of entertaining things to do, and I'm somehow always more entertained when I've had a little wine!

So basically I ran out of stuff I wanted to do at like 3pm today, and if we're out again tomorrow, I might just go nuts! Snowdays just aren't as fun when you're completely isolated from everyone else. :-(
