Feb. 17th, 2010 10:14 pmI love the weather right now. The sky is the color of the ground and if you look right, the rooftops where they touch are only little outlines of triangular black cut into the clouds, like someone drawing on white paper.
I tried a shortcut that involved a not quite vertical slope, slipped and caught myself with my hand so it sank not quite to the wrist in snow. The snow is perfect - dry, when you touch it, but wet enough it sticks to itself rather than skin. I might have felt sad I can't do stuff like make snowmen right now, but there isn't enough in the first place, so I don't feel it's a missed opportunity. It was bitterly cold before, as is right and proper, but now it's quite nice again.
And the little sliver moon is lovely.
