I measure the time and I stand amazed
So today was fun!
To start off, it began snowing around midnight, and fell pretty steadily until about 5. In that time, Ace insisted on being taken out no less than SIX TIMES, so she could play in the snow. And then the sun came up, and as it was rising, Aub and I took Ace to go play in the snow. I ran around with Ace, and was knocked over into the snow way too many times. (There was also an incident of Ace's leash coming unclipped, and, me being in seven-year-old mode, I dove head first into a leafless bush to catch her. After we came back in, I noticed I'd gotten scraped up by branches near my eye. I am, however, fine.) Aub and I made a snow boulder (it's about waist-height, or was this morning), and decided we're going to try to make a snow boulder as big as we can this winter. Also we're planning to build a snow fort to wage war on, Iunno, the wildlife. Maybe we'll each build a snow fort and wage war on each other.
I've never built a snow fort before, so I'm not entirely sure how to do it, but I think I'll manage.
Sadly, the snow mostly melted into slush during the day. :< I did, however, manage to drive safely to my interview at the supermarket. I put "deli" as my first choice of jobs, partially because the less register work I have to do, the happier I am, and partially because I did work in a deli for about a month, waaaaaay back in the day. And whaddayaknow, they're hiring for deli. I'm not thrilled with the idea, and they only do part time, so I'd have to get a second PT job to cover the losses there, but I think I've a pretty good chance of getting the job.
The second job will be harder, I think, whatever it might be. *sigh* Anyway, cross your fingers.
Also, the heater's pilot light keeps going out. I don't know why. I wish to do violence (or at least figure out how to fix it).
Other than that, I haven't done much, but the snow this morning really made my day. :) It's been ages since I had a proper snow-romp. I even made snow angels. ^^
