Snow Day

Today I am having a self imposed snow day.

I woke up to discover the train I had intended to get had been cancelled. As I continued to update live departure information for my train station every train got more and more delayed. If the trains can't run the buses won't be any better.

So today I shall hibernate in my nice warm house, with Gilmore Girls and my two assignments.

I don't really like snow.

I mean, its quite pretty, and when the sun shines on it it makes everything look alot brighter and happy. It reminds me of Christmas, and all the lovely things associated with it.

However, I hate snow driving. Its exhausting. You have to concentrate properly, and go slowly but in high gears, and the car doesn't like it, and every time you need to break I panic because I am terrified of skidding.

Also, it ruins all other transport options. Snow on train tracks and main roads means messed up bus and train services. Which is just quite inconvenient.

Plus, I don't have any good snow footwear. I refuse to wear my newest boots because they are nice and leather and will get destroyed. I have wellies but they aren't very warm. I need some good snow boots, that can get destroyed if necessary. But I can't buy snow boots if I can't get anywhere can I? Stupid snow.

Mostly I just don't like the cold. Snow makes everything extra cold.

On the plus side the tree in my front garden looks exceptionally pretty.

Oh look its snowing again. Wonderful. I shall now close the blinds, and hide from it all.
