Winter has found the Pacific Northwest.
And eeeverybody's losing their minds.
But I can't blame anyone.
When I woke up to this on Wednesday,
I knew I wasn't going anywhere.
So we just kicked back and enjoyed the beautiful view from our window.
But now that things look more like this
(that's a sheetload of ice)
I'm pretty much over the novelty.

Will this insanity never end?
We only got three inches, but the frickin' frackin' frigid temperatures kept the roads nice and icy.
(Allilteration win!)
It's beautiful. But....so...cold.
Look who's so unimpressed.

It snowed here on Sunday. And it's still coming down now. It never snows here.
Well, almost never.
My neighborhood, this morning.
I myself am no stranger to the fluffy white stuff. I spent the majority of my life in the Midwest or the East Coast. Bavarian Germany also saw it's fair share of flakes.
View from my inside my car.
But somehow, it's entirely different here. Maybe it's because Washingtonians think throwing sand on it will make it better. I'm sure it does (a little), but ya know what works better? Rock salt (and lots of it).
Look, Ma! Front yard is covered (barely).
All morning we've been hearing of multiple car accidents and spin outs, even though in most places there's under an inch of accumulation.
But still, it's falling.
**UPDATE: 12:10pm out the office window...
Wish me luck, since I have to venture out into this mayhem, for work appointments.
( A pox on you who are making me do this! you know who you are. ) UPDATE: WORK APPTS CANCELLED! WAHOO!
{ how do you feel about snow? }
