I was feeling a bit cabin fevered yesterday. By noon it had been snowing for 24hrs and we had more snow than we knew what to do with. I went to work in the morning but decided to leave at noon, before I got really snowed in. The city plows do this neat trick of clearing the main roads by filling in every driveway and parking lot exit. So I almost couldn’t get out of my spot.
Then on the way home, my windshield wipers decided that they’d had enough and just gave up. Fortunately I just had a few blocks to go. But I did have to get out at every stop light and wipe the snow build up from the window – It never rains but it pours – well, you get the idea.
I debated walking to the bank; but then I thought “nah,” this could be done another day. So now what to do. Yes I could read, or knit, or do some housework – perish the thought. Surfing was easy and my MAC was open anyway. Maybe a little music to soothe the soul.
I started out with John McDermott. Here’s Loch Nagar
However as the day wore on, and that closeted feeling became more intense, the music choices moved as well. At the end I was listening to some fairly obscure Welsh folk songs from Cerys Matthews. Here’s Myfanyw.
You have to be in that sort of crazy space. Finally I took pictures of the snow from the back window. The sun should shine tomorrow, so I’ll try to get some better shots, before I’m blinded by the light!!
