So Much Snow

So, after a few very curious days that made it seems as though winter would be skipped all together and we'd head straight for Spring, we just NAILED here in Des Moines with a solid 24 hours of just straight snow flurries. We got like 2 feet, conservatively! The campus is completely covered. They had to shut down classes yesterday at 3:00 pm and all of today. Which is nice but I was supposed to have some finals today. It's not like those just go away. No there reschedule it screwing up my plans for getting out of here and on break.

It would of been better if we could of gone and played outside but it is just so freakin' heavy. It is just hammering us. It's like Winter is trying to make up for lost time or something. It's suppose to be better tomorrow, which will be good. Only wish I had all of my snow gear - snowpants, gloves, head-warm-thingies. You can only make snowballs with your bare hands for so long.

Spent about an hour clearing the snow away from car and making sure it get out of it's parking spot. Some of these cars you can't even see anymore; they're just covered in mounds of snow. This Nissan's got a lot better traction than the Ranger but it's so low to the growd I had to stop and clear the snow out from under it that had built up.

So much snow. I think we're might be pretty well covered for the rest of the year.
