Snow Day

First real snow of the season was a bit of a disappointment. They had been calling for 6-10 inches. I moved my car. People busted out the (hot pink designer) salt and sand. We got maybe 4 inches.

I woke up with my alarm at 8, thinking thoughts of being productive, but looking out the window, I went into full-on Snow Day mode. I rolled over and slept for another hour. When I woke up, I brushed my teeth, and climbed back into bed to watch Pride and Prejudice in my jammies, eating peanut butter out of the jar. There is something about Jane Austen that is so conducive to lounging and crappy weather. (And the movie was not-too-shabby. Not BBC, but I liked how it captured the social energy.) So cozy. Took a snooze, watched the snow taper off before heading downstairs for some tomato soup and grilled cheese. Ah.

Braced myself for weather by donning my fleecy socks and W&M sweatshirt. I look like a way dork when I am all bundled, but I have not resorted to Big Red Coat yet.

And the weather was just perfect for the 1st preview of Snow Queen. And topped off by a yummy hot chocolate.
