It's amazing how such a small thing, like a thin coat of powdery white snow, can change a person's outlook on life. The first snow of the season is a transformative thing, allowing us to reevaluate and reprocess scenery that has become secondhand through the rest of the year. A small layer of ice on a tree turns it into diamonds. Watching a rabbit bounce across the field behind your house fills you with an almost unbearable amount of holiday spirit and glee.
I love winter. I hate the cold, but I love the season. I would stay in my house, bundled in my white cashmere security blanket, all day long with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book. In fact, that's what I'm going to do today. Screw work. *grin*
