another year's beauty
Dec. 31st, 2003 12:26 amWhen the first flakes fell, I was oblivious. It was 80F inside and we were sweating through a rough Warcraft 3v3.There was some concern about my friend's trip home. His overprotective father even called to order his departure; he was summarily ignored. Distract not a gamer from being snowed-in.
By midnight it was a fine accumulation that made excellent snowballs and would infuriate many a driver tomorrow morning.
It would make my month if it snowed the night of the 2nd.
It would be at once magical and unnerving if it snowed 'round new years, as I will be driving.
Only a born seattleite would consider snow a gift. Though these years it falls bittersweet.
