i swear i'm moving to the Virgin Islands... or Florida

Well folks, it snowed.... again!  I feel like each week the forecast in the city, or in the Northeast for that matter goes as follows:

Monday: freeze your butt off- does not matter the temperature, it will be cold...
Tuesday: 25 inches of heavy, wet snow- which means blinding visibility, a miserable commute and bad driving
Wednesday: Hell walking to work, getting to work, getting out of your house to start the journey to work, sitting at work with wet shoes...
Thursday: Nurse sore shoulders from shoveling, snow melts, sun appears for an hour- THE SUN!!!
Friday: Temperature decides to warm up- wooo heat wave! 2 inches of snow melts (23 inches left)
Saturday: -10 below with a windchill of -25...  you will question if you still have fingers, toes and a nose that doesn't look like Rudolph's...
Sunday- umm hello?? is this the northeast or antarctica?
Monday- well look at that, we're back at freezing our butts off....

...and you know what, just for kicks, the weather channel will throw another predicted 25 inches to you on Tuesday, and for some reason this winter, they haven't been wrong yet.... Damn improved technology.

Well that was exhausting- hot chocolate anyone?

Well see for yourself- this is exactly what the city looks like after mother nature bears down all night with howling winds, thunder AND lightning! Yes, you heard correctly- we had a snow storm, with thunder and lightning.  Maybe the thunder scared the plows away because they certainly were not out today- must have scared my landlord too because my sidewalk wasn't plowed either!








Mimi- you might get your wish!  I might be coming to visit you in Florida... forever.  I'll even eat the gluten free bread and leave mine here in Brooklyn!
