Class was canceled, plainly I forgot about this.

Well, Plainly and simply, I forgot all about having to do a blog but Wilkes University actually had a snow day. Super exciting in my opinion. So exciting that I did indeed forget this, and then in all the excitement (ha) and long hours of banqueting, I came to realize, as I rebuilt the coffee cup towers, that I forgot I didn't blog.

My bad.

Anyhow, since we didn't have class, I'm just going to talk about how socializing through this and other ways I found out how the weather is bumming people out...or making them happy, whichever.

So, I'd have to say that the billion feet of snow the east coast received in a two day period was a little bit over zealous. My personal opinion: We could have totally had class Thursday because the roads were just wet all night until around 10 or 11pm. But I wasn't one to argue. I checked out facebook and twitter just to see what is going on and how people feel and I actually found that people were commenting on how Wilkes could have been open on Thursday. Since when did any of us college students actually WANT there to be school. A little assbackwards.

But yeah, so I checked out my brother's wife's facebook and apparently they got slammed with even more snow. It was crazy. They live in Maryland, about half an hour from Baltimore and the amount of snow they've received is nuts! They take really good care of the roads though because no one is used to driving in the snow. I believe so far they've had almost 8-10 feet of snow this winter alone. That's unheard of if you don't know. Here are some pics I thought were funny...

Those are there corgis, Maddock and Belle. Snow is a little bit above them...


This is a picture of Maddock, the bigger of the two dogs, trying to get through the snow haha:


When my brother and his wife moved into his new house in MD, they had a play set in the backyard. Not quite for kid kids...but my brother's "Kids":



so yep...I found out what the weather like was from a lot of different places. And also a lot of places around PA too to witness the crazy difference when it's only an hour in whatever direction.
