Rain rain go away, can't it just snow today?

Call me crazy, but as a life long Michigander I have grown to like the snow... at least a little bit. See for me snow means walking hand in hand with the love of my life, sipping his famous hot cocoa concoction, and looking at the gorgeous lights. It means strapping on a board and going down a nice, powdery hill (regardless of how bad I am at it). It means an excuse to watch It's a Wonderful Life and The Holiday over and over again. I just love the snow!

On top of these reasons, it's just depressing seeing the rain come down and take out all of those resiliant leaves that have lasted so late into the season. I think it's sad to see the soaking wet ground and people and cars around campus. Seeing the beautiful, white snow flakes is much more fun.

Snow is also less depressing than rain. I mean when it rains you think of saddness and pain (if you give everything symbolism like I do, that is), but the snow is a happy thing. A sign that children will soon be playing outside making snowmen and sledding at the church in Sparta. It's just better overall.

Well, I have to go take on the weather now. Have a lovely day... hopefully the last one with rain for awhile. *fingers crossed*!

Peace.
