It's snowing here in Lynnwood -- HARD! Guess it started last night, and everything is very very pretty.

HOWEVER!

The scarriest moment of my entire life happened this morning. A frantic cell-phone call from Crystal, who was driving to work in our car that has needed new tires since before we bought it nearly 2 years ago, on her way to work in North Seattle early morning traffic:

"Honey, the car is stuck on the little hill right outside our apartment complex, people are zipping around me left and right so fast I can't get out of the car to push, I've tried rocking it, gunning it, giving it slow gas, everything... what do I do? Wait - I'm moving now! Very slow, but moving... whoa! Slipping and sliding! Okay, gotta go, bye!"

I seriously thought that might be the last words I ever heard from my wife :(

Luckilly, she got turned around and came right home, where she has been safely sitting ever since. I think it's time for Cocoa and Christmas Songs to make it all better :)

Ack! Glad she's safe. It's fffffin cold here in Seattle but snow yet. It's supposed to snow all day in Everett so prolly more white stuff for you in Lynnwood.

Snow-wood

My gosh! I hope she is ok. Cocoa will make it all better.

It always snow's harder in Lynnwood, I dont know why. I remember that from years of living there. Maybe its the ocean so close, there at Mukilteo and Edmonds?
Its a dusting here, pretty but not like I know you guys got. Take pics if you can!

Sounds more like it's time for some cocoanut rum and a big fat blunt.

You kids these days and yer hip Drug refferences... BAH! Back in my day, we didn't need any "Fatty-Boom-Batty Bluntz" to keep us warm - we just drank heavily, and we liked it! Wine, Liquor, kerosene... those were the days when men knew how to DRINK away the pain, instead of "toking up", or whatever the hell you kids call it!
