Snow Day
So I brought snow in my back pocket, (scooped it from the clouds leaving Cleveland) and it turns out that it might fall tonight on Seattle, which rarely sees the beautiful stuff. I got an email at my new job (first day) describing how we have to call-in first thing in the morning to see if the offices are closed. It's kind of like Houston or Atlanta getting snow. I was making jokes about it (having grown up in the "snow belt") but was told the city become a giant "luge track". ..There are a couple of streets here in town that I have a difficult enough time driving up during a bright sunny day (and yes, my friends, there have been three in a row!). First Ave, for example, goes almost straight up - I swear! When I've ridden up it with Pygmy, I honestly thought the car was going to flip backwards. I certainly don't want to drive on that - with snow. So tomorrow, bright and early, I'll call in to work and see if we're open - maybe it will be a snow day.

Also at my new job, I received a free bus pass. I can take the bus anytime (Seattle does have one of the best public transportation systems). I also got a parking pass, so I can drive to work when necessary. I love it!

I have a thousand more observations on the city and if I have a snow day tomorrow, I'll tell you about them.
