Snowpocalypse 2008

So as many of you know, Seattle is going through a winter storm of epic proportions… well for Washingtonians, anyway. And though it is rather inconvenient, I’ve been so blessed to not have been caught outside in it or required to travel through it. And as such, it’s been pretty fun. It sort of feels like I’m already on Christmas holiday even though I’m still working at home.

The snow on Thursday was pretty bad, at least watching the chaos on TV anyway. After work, Ryan and I took a walk around the UW campus to check out the snow and take some photos. By Friday it stopped snowing and I made it into the office via bus, which was nice since we were wrapping up an event for the Salvation Army. Later that evening we made it out to Justin & Jenny’s Hot Pot night: table of 15 enjoying some piping hot food dipped in broth with peanut sauce. (Ah I want to go back already!)

Today the most snow I saw was in the Costco parking lot, which was absolute mayhem. But now the second night of the storm is in full force outside. It’ll be interesting to see how long this snow sticks around; I’m just so unused to seeing it in the city! In any case, hopefully I won’t go stir-crazy soon with all this staying inside. For now it’s good to be cozy.
