Let it SNOW!

If it wasn't great enough that my rocker friend ended up giving me his New Kids on the Block/New Kids on the Block CD last night (not only that, but put it on while we were all having a small party - yes, I may have entertained them all with singing alone to I Wanna Be Loved by You - and yes Jonathan, I want to be loved by you too...anyway), but after all the hype about snow arriving today I finally got to partake in the excitement.

See, last time it snowed here, parts of Charlotte got up to 3 feet of snow. My area got...a smattering. I actually had to walk outside and look down into the grass to see the few clumped pieces of ice that remained. I felt neglected by mother nature. As the news showed kids playing on sleds and having snow days, I drove to work in a completely snow free environment. So about an hour ago when I went outside I was pleased (read=excited as hell) to see this:

That is the view from my balcony going to the lake. That was after ONE hour of snow. It's supposed to snow until tomorrow morning so I have NO idea what I'll wake up to. Craziness. Now if only I had a bottle of wine it would be great. Hmm, I wonder if it's safe for me to drive down to the store. I kind of want to ;)
