FIRST SNOW!!!

Hello All,
I am thouroughly exhausted after a surprisingly long shirft at work and I am simultaniously not wearing my glasses and too lazy to wakl  across my small room to go get them.  My vision seems to get worse by the day so no promises on spelling or typos because I can't tell the difference :)  However, the big news is that it snowed for the first time in Durnaog this afternoon.  I walked out of class and to my surprise and amazement, it was snowing!!!  Now, I don't mean blizzard snow and it was not cold enought to stick but there were some defineite snow flurries winding their way around the parking lot.  To honor the snow, I went down to the Steaming Bean and sat with my cup of coffee knitting while being totlaly mesmerized by the whirling white stuff outside.  It felt like a happy combonation of Winnie the Pooh and Alice in Wonderland (interesting mental pictures come to mind).  I thien rushed to work (almost late because I forgot to iron my pants...that is what you call a quickchange!) and ended up staying late to cover for some folks.  Only two servers showed up today out of the expected four servers and two bussers.  Thus, the rest of us were subjected to the boss' rage at the missing people and the crowds that seemed to keep on coming like we were Noah's ark in the flood.  But, more tips for me!  Tomorrow (or really whenever I get around to it) I will post pictures of the snow falling on the mountains.  I didn't have my camera with me when it was snowing here, but I hope I was able to capture the massive white/grey clouds of snow that were enveloping the La Platas across from our porch.  Well, I really must get to bed as tomorrow is a long day as well.  I love yall more than first snows!!!
