What does it take to make a city that thrives on movement, speed and activity come to a screeching halt. Well, 26.9 inches of snow will do the trick. Yesterday was the biggest blizzard in recorded history for NYC. It surpassed the blizzard of 1947 (just a bit of trivia for you). This may not seem like a lot of snow to some of you. In fact, I was equally disillusioned to the amount as 26 inches is a common occurrence in Utah. But, here in NY I don't think anyone knows how to handle that much snow. So, everyone just stayed inside. The cars that are usually speeding down the streets were curbed and completely buried. There was calm and quiet that resounded over the city as people were forced to take a day off and relax. I absolutely loved my day off and was completely lazy all day. I was very cuddly and snuggly in my cozy butter colored marshmallow robe. I accomplished nothing and I feel great.
What does today entail...
I have another day off of work and I'm going to finish cleaning the apartment, do some alterations for a friend and get waxed. Busy day, I know.
It's been a long time since my last blog and I suppose quite a bit has happened. I can't think now what I could have possibly done, but here's a few highlights.
- Rented a car last week, drove to Long Island, shopped at Ikea, went to a hockey game, reorganized the apartment, and did a shitload of laundry.
I think the next step is to buy a Volvo and have some kids so I can drive them to their soccer games.
I need to get away...travel, tour, something. Even if it's just for a weekend.
