Lousy Snow

It figures. I went home to Southern Ontario to enjoy a white Christmas, and instead of white-dusted evergreens and icicles hanging off eavestroughs, we had Seattle weather. On Christmas Eve it rained and melted what was left of the sand-encrusted lumps of roadside snow. And while I was gone, the American Pacific Northwest got a record amount of snowfall.

Since snow is so uncommon 'round these parts, many districts have closed schools and cancelled buses. I wonder if my commuter bus (the only one that runs from downtown Seattle to Redmond) will be cancelled tomorrow, thus extending my two-week holiday.

This is yet another reason (traffic being the #1 reason) I think there should be a direct subway line from Seattle to Microsoft.
