First snowfall

Happiness is...

Having nowhere in particular to go during the first snowfall of the year.

Every year around this time, Minnesotans forget what it's like to be here. They have to become accustomed to snow all over again. In the meantime, they whine, under-dress, and drive like crap. Unfortunately, grad school calls me in to Saturday classes. Today was the last one of the semester. People were by no means chipper... but I got to avoid the rest of the world as we sat in that classroom all afternoon. Now, all that's left is bundling up and sipping cocoa, perhaps with one friend. The others? You can have them.

I'm looking forward to a relaxing evening, cozy and comfortable. It's all I need today.
