I Could Talk About The Weather

Most of the city shut down late Thursday night and stayed that way the whole weekend. I even had to watch SNL in a little window framed by all the news alerts with school and church closings, but the ice didn't come like the icepocalypse we had in our imaginations.  It did ice up enough to make all the trees look like they had been dipped in beautiful crystal winter fairy dust (or frozen snot, depending how you look at it).




I've been re-reading Three Uses of the Knife and love how it opens with a discussion of the weather.  I do love weather talk
