This morning I woke up to this:

Okay, maybe not exactly that, but close enough. It’s only 0 C right now, which means big fluffy flakes, and enough moisture for it to be packing snow. Which means that every elementary school in the area is going to have a hard time keeping the kiddies in check. It’s one of those days where you get completely coated in snow as you walk, and then it melts as soon as you get inside anywhere (bus, subway, office, car), leaving you slightly damp, and you hair a little less poofy than it was when you left. Quite pretty, if a bit messy.

On another note, last night Al Gore was in town to give one of his talks on conservation and the environment. I find it funny that he’s been dubbed “the Gorecal” (as in oracle but with some Gore, haha), AND that scalpers were actually at the event last night trying to make some cash on his appearance! Isn’t that wild? And to think all of America thought he was super boring a few years ago.
