let it snow, let it snow!

i hate the snow.


yesterday it was fun. it was BEAUTIFUL! i enjoyed it... yesterday.

yesterday i went ice skating and met up with people from church at prospect park. i've never skated outside before and it was crazy cool with the snow falling and stuff. i was a little bummed at first, because my favorite person Mitch couldn't go { he had to work - that stinks } and while it saddened me, and it wasn't nearly as fun as it could have been i tried to justify it by reminding myself he would have tackled me into the ice at least once.
But it was still fun, Charlotte and Georgia, the two cutest 7 year old girls i know, even asked me to skate with them. they are pretty great skaters. i don't remember going so fast when i was 7. Georgia kept falling and would just pop back up in a snap - she was a trooper { she smiled big when i told her too. }

A big group of us left all together because we were getting too cold, and headed to 9th street through the park. we passed the boat house and all the lights were on and the water was frozen over... it was beautiful {picture has been provided}

that's all fine and dandy, but this morning i got up early and left and hour early {in case trains had issues} trudged through heaps and mountains of snow {because the streets get plowed and the 2ft of snow on the road gets pushed to the intersection so you have to clime over it} and then you step into a puddle of slush that you think is solid but it isn't - i was worn out by the time i got to the subway station {which was running on time - so i ended up way early - but wasn't late}


well... i was hoping for a white christmas...
