Postcards from Outer Space

It snowed again today. everything's bright white outside. snowflakes are falling down from heaven like the angels are shaking out all their dandruff.

i stepped out onto the patio, planting one foot into about 2 inches of powdery fresh snow, and i lasted close to 15 seconds before it became too much and i had to come back inside.

days like this remind me of the times in elementary school when they'd bring in snow from japan and dump it in the courtyard for all the kids to play with and generally just run amok. of course, by the time it got to guam, the snow had melted together into this sort of shaved ice and all the kids would be throwing snowballs at each other, getting hammered by large junks of ice. good times.

definitely more fun than when "spider-man" would stop by and jump around the roof of the school, spazzing out like somebody who's had too much coffee.

but still, good times.
