My mother told me I sounded high. Maybe I am high!

According to the AccuWeather Widget, the current conditions in Brooklyn are: Winds from NE at 13 mph; Scattered showers of bouncing pearls.

Splendid!

I wanted to hug today; the day itself.  I had the day off from work, but I was in Manhattan early enough to see the snow really start to come down in Rockefeller Center.  I haven’t been anywhere near Rockefeller Center in months.  I don’t think I ever laid eyes on last year’s tree.  And though I’m never looking for an opportunity to rub elbows with tourists in ski jackets, there was an infectious strain of excitement in the air there.

I blinked flakes from my eye lashes.  I said ‘good morning’ to the guy rolling out the snow mats at the entrance to J.Crew.  I got a smile from a tiny kid trying on ginormous earmuffs.

I also got 20% off my purchase.

I like The First Snow.  What’s not to like?

    The first snow of the year was awesome. Everything always looks so beautiful when it is covered with a clean, white layer of snow.
