Snow ... yay!

Today, I've made a vow to actually like snow this season.
Blizzard, part one
The past few years, I have developed a rather firm dislike of this form of precipitation. I think that might have come from 1) living in an apartment complex whose management never really bothered to put much effort in getting the parking lots and walkways plowed; and 2) when I lived in a place with a driveway that had a tendency of icing over. So, after you've shoveled the inches of snow, you've come upon the inch of ice underneath. I'm frankly surprised I never really hurt myself out there; even people with the best balance would consider it treacherous.
Anyway, where I'm at now, I don't necessarily have to worry about either scenario. So, snow: we are friends once again! I intend to enjoy every time you grace us with your visits, and I also intend on purchasing a cool sled so that I can speed down you-covered hills really, really fast!
