Story of the Day

A little picture story for you all:

The snow was lovely and I thought I would share the best part of my day. This is what my car looked like when I decided to brave the weather to do some grocery shopping:


After I started wiping the car off, I was able to see just how much snow had accumulated:

With some digging, clearing, and rocking between drive and reverse, I got out:

So I drove to Wal-Mart, bought way too much food that I didn't need and that isn't anywhere close to good for me, and made my way back home. There are four stoplights between my house and Wal-Mart. One of them happened to be red on my way home (the third of four), so naturally, I stopped at it. As I did, all of the snow accumulation from the top of my car (remember that picture?) came crashing down and completely covered my windshield. Not just a light cover, not 'put your wipers on and push it off', but completely covered. Besides, my wipers were frozen anyway, so that wasn't even an option. So I put on the hazards long enough to jump out of the car and wipe off a corner for me to see out of for the way home:

Hysterical. I seriously love this place.

*For those who may be a little concerned, I do see the potential danger of driving with the majority of my windshield covered. Fear not, I wasn't that far from home. I would have pulled over and completely scraped it off, but there isn't anywhere to pull over on the road that leads to my apartment. Besides, it was great experience!*
