It's beginning to look a lot like...

Snow is cold, snow is white
Snow is falling throughout the night
It makes the world so fresh and new
And sometimes closes school down, too.
    - Me, 6th grade

I knew it was going to be fun when I woke up this morning and the hillside out my bedroom window had that beautiful Normal Rockwell layer of snow over everything.

Then I looked at the front window. My street hadn't even been plowed yet. So, rather than spend half an hour digging my minivan out (note to self: minivans take a long time to thoroughly de-snow and de-ice compared to cars with smaller surface areas) and then brave the downhill sharp left at the end of my street that tends to ice up, I wussed out and took the 67H. Lots of messy streets still in Squirrel Hill, although downtown's pretty clear at this point.
