the best snowfall

this is what my family back in l.a doesn't see: fat white flakes hurtling down from a blanket white sky so that you think a giant, cosmic child is shaking his sno-globe.

i'm home to prepare for a cocktail party i'm hosting for work folks so i'm actually sitting in my turret looking down at the intersection, staring at the snow like a moron.

Those fat white flakes (hey! that describes me on a bad day!) yesterday afternoon were indeed glorious to behold.

This will let you pretend to be that giant, cosmic child.

I like Seattle snow. It blows in over night, we get a day off work. We put on a sweater

The next day it's completely gone. No walking to work across sheets of sidewalk ice. No disgusting slush seeping into your socks and freezing your ankles.
