Snowpocalypse 2012

It is safe to say that I do not know how to handle the snow. 
Here is what happened for the week of it. 

First...
 Whitney and I went estate sale shopping. The best.
It started snowing AFTER we got there. Otherwise I would have never left the house. 
Yes, I did not grow up in the Northwest. Not even close.
This was the backyard of the first estate sale we went to. 
Very worth it except...
 someone hit my car and...
 didn't leave a note. Sad. But...
 I was buying this yellow jacket while my car was being hit. So, it was worth it. Then...
 I almost got stuck at work, but made it home safely to this beautiful apartment view and BOTH of my roommates. This rarely happens. So...
 We went for a walk in the winter wonderland (it was still a novelty)...
 and took lots of pictures...
 drank warm things...
 and threw a couple snowballs...
 and laughed...
and went on the swings. 
Then I was stuck at home for 3 days. Practically by myself. 
That's when...
I read The Hunger Games in one sitting. 
I would have read the next two books in the series except I was snowed in. 
There is not a bookstore in my apartment. Or near my apartment. 

All-in-all I got a much loved break and got pretty sick of myself. 
I finally busted my car out to join the Shavey's for a homecooked meal and socializing on Friday. 
The snow started on Saturday.
Today, there is snow lingering in gutters and under trees but mostly it is gone. And mostly I am happy about it.
