#22 On yuck, cold, wet yuck

Good morning and welcome to the circus of horrors.
On today's agenda:
Snow.

Urgh, I hate the stuff.
I just find it so epically, completely, pure unadulterated, pointlessness. Ok, so yeah, it's fun when you're a kid, when you throw snowballs till your hands go numb etc etc etc. But now, aside from being overly cynical and more grown up, I just find it boring. I'm not really an outdoor person, and ergo, I don't like being outdoors, then plus being cold and wet in weather that is already cold, no, that's not really fun in my opinion.
And yeah, no school, but now that I'm in 6th form, no school doesn't equal no work, there's work that I need to do regardless of my being at school or not.That, is me. Aside from not being covered in snow, which I'm not. Since I haven't been outside, because it's yucky.
I don't think I'd mind so much if I had the proper clothing. If I had my skiing gear here, it'd be no problem. I could slap on some salopettes and some wellies or something, a ski jacket and gloves, and I'd be laughing.
But this is England we're talking about here. Snow is not normal for us, especially in February. We have rain, lots and lots and lots of rain. I have umbrellas coming out of my fucking ears, and waterproof jackets by the dozen. Well, not dozen, but, a few.

And I'm off now, because the downstairs computer is next to the window, and that means I have to see the snow out of the corner or my eye, and you know how I hate the snow now.
Also, because I'm gonna go play Fallout3, and punch the doctor in Operation Anchorage so that she's tagged as hostile, and everyone there beats her up endlessly.

Fun times.

And a few tips. No driving, period.
And if you do go out, wrap up, you wouldn't want to catch a cold.

Oh, snow, we have lots of it here. It's -30 and the schools doesn't close. Even though sometimes the kids who live out of town can't come to school because the school buses aren't going... Read in the newspaper (on the internet) I read at home that it was a slight chaos in London, see, it's global news! Snow is kinda fun, but yeah, you need to be dressed for it. Damn, summer should come sooner I think.
*hugs*
