Snow

After a couple of weeks without snow (okay, three or so), the white stuff started falling around noon.

I didn't pay much attention to it after getting back to work from lunch, but when the phone rang at 2:51, I think I sort of knew what was coming.

"Hi Mom, they cancelled all after-school activities. Can you come pick me up?"

"What happened to the extra bus money I gave you this morning in case DI was cancelled?"

"I accidentally spent it on a pop."

"??? How... but school's only been out one minute, and you were only supposed to... You do know it's going to take me while to get there. I'll be there in 15 minutes...."

Snow. Beautiful until you have to go out in it unexpectedly...
