Last night the news was getting all up in a tizzy about how much snow we would receive overnight.

"Up to eight inches of snow! Maybe more!"

I was thinking that eight inches of snow is nothing, but that's not the weirdest part of my transition to becoming somewhat of a New Englander.

The weirdest, and perhaps scariest part, was that when I woke up this morning and saw that there was no snow on the ground -- I was disappointed.

Someone please move me to a warmer climate NOW.
