Seattle Storm

So the snow is coming down measurably in inches in Seattle now. There are 2.5 inches so far. The storm began as I was on the plane waiting to pull out of the gate. I looked out the window and the fog and snowfall were so thick that it just looked as though the whole outside world had evaporated into a gray and white mist. I wanted to get out of the plane and just walk around in it. It was one of those moments when you wish that you could "freeze frame" the world and take some time to wander around.

The pilot and flight attendants kept saying that they were trying to get us off the ground and out of this "nasty weather" to Phoenix where it was "better." I sincerely believe I was the only person on that entire flight that had absolutely no desire to leave the state of Washington at that moment.

I am only excited to be back in Phoenix because I know that the sooner I come back here the sooner finals will be over. Just two and a half weeks, and then I'm free. This is our last full week of classes, and then it's time to enter into the downslope that is finals. December 13th can't come fast enough.
