44.1 - Catch Snow On My Tongue

Hey there Internet Land, let me tell you the story of my day.

I woke up this morning, came to my PC and hit up FaceBook (as I usually do) and was hit by a torrent of status updates about the fact that it was snowing in Bathurst. I've not seen snow that I can remember, and so I rushed to my backyard to catch a glimpse. I was hit, however, by a blizzard of green!

Given that I've lived here for almost seven full years, and I've not once seen snow, I was kind of ticked off. Also, given that it's freaking Spring I am amazed that it was snowing in the first place.

So I sat at my PC, dejected, talking to my friend Trevor (who lives in Canada, and thus sees snow all the time) when, all of a sudden...WHITE! FALLING FROM THE SKY!! So I rushed outside and looked up - the wet coldness clung to my face! So I opened my mouth, stuck out my tongue, and caught some on there.

It sounds small, but it's something I've always wanted to do, and it was really cool to experience it.

The only things that would have made it better would have been if my friends were there, or if the snow was settling (then I could have made a snow angel!)

Anyway, Internet Friends, thanks for sharing this with me ^_^

Catchya later
