IT IS SNOWING!!!
And now it is icing. But at around 5 am, the snow was beautiful.
I was just out in the ice and snow with my dog so she could take care of her doggie business, and in moments I was ice incrusted. My dreadlocks are still mostly chunks of ice. My beard turned white and frozen. It is kinda weird, even after living with my locks for a couple of years now, I am still suprised by their effects. When I first went out and my head got wet, I was cold. Once my locks iced over and formed a shell, well, I don't know of any other way to describe it, but once they iced over and got all hard my head became so warm that it started getting a touch uncomfortable for me. My wife noticed it too once hers froze over.
My wife says I look kinda secksay when I do the abominable snowman thing.
There is another storm bearing down on us and it should be here tonight, dumping even more freezing rain and ice. I hope the power doesn't go out.

Well here I sit in my empty classroom watching it NOT snow or ice or sleet or even rain. Bone dry. I'm not complaining as I have lots of filing and cleaning to do in my classroom.
And today is my wife's birthday.
