susandennisWhen I left here to go to the movie, it was snowing a little - none was on the ground and when I got out of the bus tunnel downtown, it had stopped.
But, the very good news is that I was able to walk to the bus tunnel without stopping and it wasn't too difficult. Not as easy as getting to the airport gate last week but way way way better than yesterday.
The movie - Joyful Noise - was bad. I kind of enjoyed it for it's badness and for Dolly Parton and her still so amazing voice. But, it was bad. I told![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
machupicchu to keep his expectations low and then lower them and he did but still, it was worse than he thought. Maybe we have already seen the worst movie of 2012?
The theater is on the 6th floor of a downtown mall and as we were coming down the escalator,machupicchu said "LOOK!!! look out that window!" Sure enough, it was snowing like crazy. Giant baseball sized snowflakes. We hopped off the escalator and over to a pedestrian bridge and wow. Here's one of his pics.
It was just beautiful. We split up and I walked the half a block to the bus tunnel and immediately realized that my sneakers - with lovely air holes for keeping my feet cool - were not the right shoes for this situation. Oh well.
When I got out of the bus tunnel on the other end it had slowed down considerably but there was lots on the ground and this poor weeping willow was sobbing...
I went into the Japanese grocery there on the corner and got rice and some sushi for lunch and some of their cucumber pickles and then walked on home across a very snowy parking lot. My feet were pretty cold and wet when I got home BUT... I was still breathing! I did have to stop once in the parking lot just to catch up with myself but I'm ok with that. I did way more than I thought I could. So... nice.
The snow has stopped but it's so pretty out and I'm fine if it starts again. The pool is closed tomorrow so I got nowhere I need to get.
