Snowverkill

We’re from the north, and we appreciate seasons. A little snow here and there can be nice, even in warmer climes. But for the record, this DC snow is getting ridiculous. I mean, 55 inches this season? That’s as tall as a small child. Or Snookie from Jersey Shore. And after today’s blizzard, I would assume the majority of it has come in the past week.

In an attempt to be positive, here’s a list of good things and lessons that have happened because of Snowmaggedon:

• Time off work means more clean work clothes!
• Hanging out with friends in and watching sporting events with them is as fun as back at school, and especially is a treat on a typical work night.
• We’ve been able to explore parts of the city within walking distance that had previously been ignored.
• Guy friends are good for a lot of things, but they are especially good at making pancakes. We’ve been treated twice this snowmaggedon!
• Wellies/hiking boots are essential for the slushy sidewalks.
• Getting stranded in Metro Center is scary, but surviving it is worth the story.
• Everyone likes working so much more than they let on.
• Snow days are the perfect chance to go to Georgetown Cupcake early enough to get the free cupcake of the day, and a half dozen more to share with one's roommates.
• LSAT prep is a productive way to spend a snow day. Shopping works too though.

So, even when you’re stuck at home on a 4, 5 or even 6 day vacation, you can still learn thing or two J.

Much love,
