I was pleased to see that most flights are getting out of BWI reasonably on schedule. YAY! I’ll be seeing my sweetie in just over 12 hours… YAY! ---

Last night as I was driving home through the pouring rain, I was thinking “If it were 5 degrees colder, this would be a hell of a snowstorm.” Happy Spring, all! ---

Not after the chef gets through with them. 2 inches up here. But it’s been snowing then melting then snowing then melting all the livelone day. Mommy! Make it stop! ---

Wierd weather. All of the snowfall where I live is melting immediately after it hits the wet ground. It’s like the white snow is falling through the ground, we just can’t see it after it passes the ground layer. Wierd. ---

4 inches? Gimme a break! Just be glad its not '93 and you’re getting 44 inches-or did that nor’easter not affect you people down south? ---

Canadagirl - I provide the MADs with all of the ribbing they require over their lack of gumption. After spending many years in the Arctic, it is my duty. Now I’m here, it’s March, and I’m in shorts contemplating a nap outside. My reward for dealing with the GNWT all of those years.
