Oh New England. You silly bitch.

Okay, in case anyone reading this is outside of New England (or New Hampshire, I guess) or is living in an underground bunker:

It’s April 12th.  This shouldn’t be happening.

I’m sitting in the MUB killing some time before I go to the DH with Mike.  The MUB has a steel roof, and the frozen chunks of ice and snow falling from the sky are hitting it like tiny ball bearings – it sounds like the floor of a machine shop is being swept onto the roof of the building.

Outside, the snowflakes are huge and look like a Hollywood creation.  They intermittently go from pieces of clouds falling down to the dreary and more depressing creation known as “wintry mix”.

Once again, April.  Although, it is somehow fitting.  I remember I came up to UNH for a Liberal Arts open house on April 8, 2003, before coming here.

There was a snowstorm that day, and as we were driving home my mom said to me “Are you sure you want to go to school in a place where it snows this much in April?”

Oh well.  Bookends of snow storms to my collegiate career.

    Wow, I remember that snowstorm on April 8…we got it in NJ too. And I remembered it was April 8 because I thought that was the latest it would ever snow into the spring…..but I was clearly wrong and April 12 is now the day to remember. Ugh.
