welcome to new england's winter

we have a grand total of 10 inches according to my scientific method of measuring snowing via dropping my yellow ruler (which i've had since fourth grade...) into the snow. our first real snowstorm of the season! i think the weathers websites (both weather.com and accuweather.com) are out to get america by producing bad predictions. this was supposed to be a mild 5 incher. what the heck? dudes, you were wrong by 5 inches. if we were wrong like this all the time, we'd be at war with a country and have no way to get out of it. oh wait...my bad... ;-)

anyway, here's a collection of pictures from today: the first couple are from when i first woke up around 8am; one's from when accuweather.com said it was going to start flurry (that would be the pic in which it was snowing super hard); and the others are me goofing off for your entertainment ;-)
