Winter continues to drag on, coldly oblivious to our cries for spring. Tomorrow is the first of April and still a solid layer of snow remains on the ground, the temperatures hover around freezing and the precipitation continues its relentless onslaught. We're due for another five to eight inches of snow tonight, paired with a nice side of freezing rain that is sure to create the most beautiful of sparkling winter landscapes to awaken to tomorrow.

I feel my composure slipping away the longer the dreary season goes. There isn't so much as a ray of sunshine to give us hope on the island and at this point, I'm pretty damn sure I'll spend half the summer watching it all melt. All I can say is I am damn glad I don't have to be here for another winter!

In the event of another snow day tomorrow, there is plenty I need to do and plenty I probably won't even bother accomplishing. I've stocked up on books to read and there's always something on TV...just a matter of getting through the day and hoping you get to see other human life the next day at school. Only four weeks left until I go home for my mini-vacation and I cannot wait!
