Just Another Snow Day in Hicksville...
The weather has been fucked up of late, but winter has returned, which is a good thing...
From Sunday to Wednesday, it was beautiful. All four days, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, and I'm being literal... not one. Tuesday, the temprature skyrocketed to 51. Unheard of... It got to the point where I was thinking that winter was over (I knew better, of course).
And today, the most beautiful thing.... An all out blizzard rolled through starting at about 10:30 this morning, and hasn't stopped yet, dropping a gorgeous 2 feet of powder on L-Town. Let the games begin..
I had arranged for a small get together with Jason, Bopha, Pete, and Ryan when they were out of schoo. Origiinally, it was called in order to finish up the remaining tracks for the cd (further details below). Were we productive in any sense? Not one fucking bit. It didn't help that this beautiful squall had come and given us white gold. We were all in such a giddy, playful mood... Of course we were being loud: screaming guitars, juiced basses, uber-loud drums, but it seemed that our just talking and joking were too loud as well. I even thought I heard Shayna yell "Shut up!" from next door when we did our "sound check".
After a couple minutes of more loudness, Justin started throwing snowballs at my house. I heard him call for me. I figured it'd be to call me out to tell me to keep it down, so I was biding my time before stepping outside. But instead, he was cool about it and invited us for a snowball fight. Fuckin right! The 5 of us taking on him, Shayna, Jaimee, and Spencer. Greatest 40 minutes of the day, I think. I was pelted snow many times. I was hit so hard on my bare hands once that it started swelling when I came in. We eventually stopped after all the snow was exhausted off both of our lawns. (We've since gotten at least 4 more inches).
Ryan left after that, seeing that he's grounded again >_<. Pete, Jason, Bope, and I went inside... I thought about trying to get us back into a productive state to finish the cd, but it just wouldn't happen and I was cool with that. I'd rather have a rockin good time anyway than be a stickler for getting it done. We ordered a couple pizzas and watched "School of Rock" before they all headed out.
I love snow. I'll definitely have to hit up the slopes, hopefully sometime this week. I haven't been all winter which is HIGHLY disappointing for me. I wonder if I can get anyone to go with me.
