We have flakes

susandennisBoth kinds, actually - the human version and the falling from the sky version. We have more of the former, however than the latter.
I was sitting at my little desk working away when one of the former came by in her very best Chicken Little imitation saying "it's snowing! You'd might want to get back across the bridge while you still can!!"
So, in great excitement, I hop up and run to the nearest window... Ok, so maybe it's snowing on the other side of the building. Oh, no, wait, there's a flake. I see it now. Ooops. Gone.
I was standing in an empty office looking out the window and soon a crowd gathered. There was the Canadian who brought with her as much disdain as she could carry. There was the flake who, announced she was sending her team home. Actually, except for the Canadian and me, the rest in the gathering crowd told boring stories about the time they skidded in snow on their way to school one day or how they smashed up their car in the 80's once when it snowed.
These people really know how to kill a good snow buzz.
On the other hand, so far, at least, this is not even snow to even get a good buzz started... here's the traffic cam - it's positioned about where I get the bus every day. You can click on it to get to the website if you want to see the updates.
