Well, hello Winter!

Winter came all at once today. It was somewhat cold this morning, but while I was eating lunch after my morning of teaching swim lessons, I noticed it was snowing lightly (a tolerable, somewhat pleasant snow). I next got my hair trimmed and during this happening the snow began to descend somewhat more aggressively. Last year this would not have affected me (as I did not have possession of a car or the need to leave campus). Today, however, I was driving my roommates car and was not trilled to be stuck in the car for twice as long as it normally would have taken me to drive home. While on my way home the snow transformed to "ice pellets" or at least that is what the weather site I frequent is calling this current precipitation. According the radio it is likely to turn to rain tonight, potentially turning the slush on the road into a nice layer of ice. Oh, I love winter. (NOT!)
