Lauren's Sense of Snow

Tonight we're set for a good 3-5 inches of snowfall. As bad as this sounds, I am pretty excited for some good ole rockin' holiday cotton! Too bad I have to work tomorrow; I'm trying to make up some hours this week so there's no getting out of it. But knowing that it'll be all snowy and cold outside while I'm at work somehow makes things more exciting (or maybe it's that most of my officemates will have left early to avoid slippery roads, leaving the place to me). My colleague from North Carolina is not at all amused--by the snow or by my enthusiasm.

My only concern about getting a snowstorm is that Adam is driving into town this weekend. His car is a bit on the sporty side (let me be clear...it's a sports coup, not a sports car--I've been corrected many times over the years); it's not the best at handling slippery road conditions, so my delight at the snow ends when it comes to his and everyone else's travel safety. So far, we're due for more snow on Thursday and Friday, but I'm not sure what will happen come Sunday evening, when Ads is due to arrive in town.

Tonight is "House, MD", Greg House's and my favorite cuddle-up-together-under-a-warm-blanket tv show. He really likes seeing his namesake hobble around the hospital on his cane. House (the cat) meows at the tv and then jumps off the couch, whips out his cane and pretends to hobble around the house just like the tv character does. It's really quite the sight to see. He's got such a great imagination! Have to be there, I guess.

I know everyone across the country is getting cold, wintry conditions, so bundle up, stay warm and watch some tv tonight. Or watch your cat. Entertainment either way.
