Winter seems less bleak now. I endured the snow and the icy wind. Sleet in my mouth, my eyes, down my collar and in my shoes was actually, believe it or not, a little fun. It was an adventure out there--made me glad I live in a place where there are seasons and exciting weather.

Right now, there is a winter wonderland outside my window and I absolutely love how this sort of thing immobilizes everyone. It makes the ordinary workday seem exciting and full of possibility. What exactly that possibility might be, aside from the opportunity to leave early, escapes me at the moment but that doesn't matter, does it? The atmosphere on the 54th floor today was giddy because it was snowing like crazy on a Friday.

That makes all the difference.
