Snow!

So, i guess the top issue today was the massive amounts of snow the valley floor got today. If you live outside the Eugene/Sringfield area, especially in an area where it snows often, then this wont seem that interesting. I think i was in 2nd grade the last time it snowed a significant amount. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that we got about 4 inches at my house. Again, this might not seem like that much to some of you, but it was none the less exciting to me. So i was sposed to work this morning so i got up at about 9, but the lady i work for told me not to come bc it was too icy, plus she lives on a huge hill. so i went to sleep again...for 3 hours...it felt good. anyways, at about 12 i signed onto aim and talked to 5 people about how cool the snow was. Well, 4. the 5th person was bitching about how much it sucked, he was the only one who had been out to try to drive. I guess i didnt really realize he was right untill about an hour ago when I had some anxiety about having to drive home. just walking was kinda nerve racking, and the thought of driving up all the hills to my house wasnt something i was looking forward to. I believe the best part of the snow was the snow lady we made at the park. I made the boobs, and i must say, they were really good. Robin went to his house to get a camera and he only had time to take a couple pics before the whole thing just fell over it was so top heavy. but really, i think it was one of the best snow people ever....besides the head, which was really quite ugly.

That wasn't all that boring. I mean its kinda amusing to read about my own day, since i'm mentioned twice, and I really liked your perfect redundency on the first like that was awesome.

I'm up in the Portland area and I work in Salem. It was quite the drive to work yesterday. I am originally from Florida, so any snow is fun for me. At our house, we didn't get any snow that stuck, but at work we had 4-5 inches in the parking lot. On my way in, I passed through a few areas that had near to 8 inches on the sides of the road.

We do have a forecast for more snow tonight though, so maybe we'll get lucky and get some up in Portland metro.
