the snow has descended
my weekend was busy, leaving not much time for relaxing. and now it's monday morning again, minutes before i'm about to sleepily walk into a class filled with hyper ten year olds and teach them the joys of learning how to say "i'm happy/sleepy/hungry". considering also teaching them "i didn't get much sleep this weekend so piss off".
on the way back from matsumoto yesterday, when we pulled into niigata ken from the south, we drove through a blizzard, with snow coating the trees and the side of the road six inches thick. once we got to joetsu it seemed to die down a bit, more sleet than anything. but then almost immediately when i reached the city, i might as well have been driving through siberia. the toll route was a foot thick in snow which hadn't been cleared, i was trying to negotiate my little k car going 30 km's an hour with no snow tires. i'm so looking forward to getting a new car! in the mean time, it looks as though i'm going to have to put my snow tires on - i couldn't even get into my driveway last night!

well it was just between joetsu and back that i drove my car - we took lindsay's from joetsu to matsumoto, but they were staying in tokamachi last night to go skiing today. iina.
i've got to decide this week between the nissan and the suburu!

and i wouldn't go near your fancy RX8 or WX3 or whatever you call you fancy sports car - with a ten foot pole! otherwise u would hate me for life! :)
i, unlike you, don't have as much faith in my manual car-driving a abilities.
wrx dear...and with a bit of guided practice you just might (theres a nice offer in there somewhere...) :-)
