So wrong on so many levels.

I think [livejournal.com profile] ignipes said it best in Ain't No Sin to be Glad You're Alive:

"April showers bring May flowers, dude."

"This is an April blizzard."

"So it brings really fucking tough May flowers. May flowers with teeth." Dean paused, then added thoughtfully, "And blowtorches."

And I thought we wouldn't get any accumulations...

Believe it or not, there were daffodils under there.


Scary thing is, this was at seven in the morning, and about four more inches have fallen since.

Either the city's snow plows have been retired to storage for the summer, or they already blew their budget on salt, because by eight o'clock this morning none of the major commuter routes had been ploughed. (I say major, but in a town like this...) I was bottoming out on the snow piled between tire ruts. It was fun.

By the drive home this afternoon, it was less bad. They must've done the roads at least once, and I made it up the hill in my ice-skaing hippopotamus car on a wing and a prayer.

There's a really neat lecture tonight on raptors and birds of prey, but if the roads stay like this and the snow continues to fall, I do not think I shall be attending.

My heart goes out to everyone at Virginia. Some things are to... there are no words, man.

In happier news, I posted Birthday fic for [livejournal.com profile] amchara last night. Jo-centric, about 1500 words, and given that I wrote most of it before Hunted aired, I'm rather pleased with the way it came out. :)

inchest? Were you, perhaps, trying to type a different word instead of inches?

Man! We're having some shitty weather, but not that bad! Hope you get a thaw soon!

I was wondering if snow still exists on earth. I haven't seen it for months now. Sunny days following sunny days in France... Andhere I thought it was horrible. *g*

I'm telling you, come to sunny Arizona. No snow in sight here.

My heart goes out to everyone at Virginia. Some things are to... there are no words, man.

I know. I'm still trying to process what happened. :(

Oh you poor snowed-in people! We just had 9" of rain here. I seriously thought my house was going to be blown down in the middle of the night; have never heard wind like that before in my life. COME ON SPRING, LET'S GO!!
