It must be lovely in Vermont this time of year, all that snow.

Today I want to share some new insights to my life.

First, I am now a semi-dedicated runner. I know this because today, while it was snowing, and in inches of snow, I laced up my little sneakers and went running. I now know that even in icky weather I want to go on a run, so I am now semi-dedicated. I like it. Especially running in the cold because a) I don't sweat very much in the first place, so then I don't sweat at all, and b)it feels so good to breathe in the cold air-it's SO refreshing. However, running IN THE SNOW is hard. It's like snowshoeing, you have to PICK UP your legs and place them instead of just move along.
Oh and, running with my new ipod is awesome. Thanks mom and dad; you're the BEST!

Second, I can't remember what I was going to say here because I just watched a preview for The Back Up Plan and almost died laughing at one part, and am now so distracted I don't remember what this thought was going to be.

Third, I do not love sitting really close to the screen at the movies. It makes me nauseous.

Fourth, I do not make a very convincing liar. I wonder why this is, because I have a lot of practice trying, and used to be quite good at it.

Fifth, I remember what the second was. I hate snow when it just SITS there, but when it's falling gently in large fluffy flakes, especially at night, I love it. It's so romantic and beautiful and feminine...all things I love. And so I can't help but fall in love with snow a little more each time it falls gently.

That's all.

I want to wash my face, my hands, my hair with snoooooow...

Good job on the running! One day I might love running again, but not today.

I also love snow when it is falling--it makes the cold worth it. In fact, although I don't usually mind the cold, I hate days that are SUNNY and COLD--they just don't fit together!
