I'm just glad my head doesn't melt

I blame it all on Megan. I told her about a week ago that we were supposed to get snow, and she laughed, saying it would never happen. We didn't get as much as they predicted, but we had a good 1/2 inch. As if that weren't enough, she claimed that it would be the last snow we'd see this year. So what happens? We get another four inches within about five hours yesterday! Megan is going to have to learn to stop making such silly claims. We were sent home three hours early due to hazardous roads, and we even had a snow day today since it was considered too icy this morning to go in. I'll not complain; I never really expected snow days in Texas. Roads were really nasty yesterday, and it took and hour to get home where it usually only takes 10-15 minutes. When I finally made it into my apartment, I got all bundled up and took my camera for a walk through a nearby park. There were people (mostly adults) everywhere building snowmen. It's amazing to me to see the joy snow can bring to people who so rarely experience it. Already the snow is melting away, and there are only a few patches left in shaded areas. A few of the snowmen still have the bottom two snow mounds, but most are down to just one. I didn't spot any with heads today. Such a short life in Texas, but a happy one.
