Noticing the Year: 02/13/08

This morning I noticed that Boston's most dramatic fog comes when warm air rolls into a place covered with snow. I wish I could share the eerie sight of the tree-lined VFW parkway enshrouded in mist, the trees black with moisture above a background of freshly fallen white.
Then just now I noticed that I really don't mind rain, even though there's a ton of it at the moment, flooding the parks. I could probably live in the PNW without much suffering. Alexis, on the other hand, always mentions stabbing herself in the eyes, when we've had more than a day or so.
And since I love her beautiful eyes, and we've been married four years today, and for many more into the future, I'm willing to compromise on that point. :)

Couldn't find a 2004 pic, but here's a nice one from the Summer of 2005

Date: 2008-02-14 04:17 am (UTC)You think you would like the PNW, but I think it would get to you eventually...it's just so blah all the time, even in summer...and the job market BLOWS...
I'm not sure about the housing market, but I left due to there being no jobs and such....

How cool is that?
(when I was little, whenever I came across a bug I didn't recognize, I always convinced myself that I had discovered a new species)
