At the end of the article, they are calling for a wild winter with higher than average snow fall.

Oh.

Crap.

Looks like I picked the perfect year to start walking to work =P

Perfect... if you have snowshoes!

Ug. Time to buy some cross country skis for the trip to work! :)

You could get a snowboard and one of those magnetic grapple guns from Snowcrash!

You'll just have to be a little less hard core this winter! ;)

That anonymous someone is obviously me.

Stupid mail client...

[identity profile] cris.livejournal.com 2005-10-25 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
no worries ... and my rejoinder was that there are certain days when I don't have the choice to be hard core. car's in the shop today, but I still need to go to work.

I'd just like to go on vacation until the sun comes back.

My jacket's still wet, too. :/ I'm hoping that wearing the fleece under it will soak up some chill. *crosses fingers*

Damn, and I'll be on a Greyhound.

as it turns out, today was chill and dry, and there was this strange glowing thing in the sky. So, it might all be for naught.

Winter could still be wicked cold, though.

See, you're a skiier, so you're probably all psyched for this.

...and lo, the snows did come, and bring with them the scavengers from the northlands. The battles were mighty, the warriors courageous, and furry little creatures from Alpha Centuri were furry little creatures from ALpha Centuri... wait. No, that's not it..

Speaking on behalf of Jersey and my good friend Jope Swanson... BRING IT ON! WHOO! WHOO! YEAH!

[identity profile] silas7.livejournal.com 2005-10-26 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
You can have all the snow in Jersey you want! *grin*

those furry creatures can be tricky.

mmmmm....snow days...
This means my winter will be filled either with leisurely days where I make mulled cider and read or with me going farking stir crazy from being trapped in my apartment...

[identity profile] silas7.livejournal.com 2005-10-26 01:37 pm (UTC)(link)
well, snow days are a nice thing.

Mulled cider, reading, perhaps some painting... good times.

and hey, we all go a little mad sometimes...
