Snow Is Fun, But Slush Is Not.
Well, yesterday, as you probably know, I was treated to four inches of snow to do crazy stuff in. It was the biggest non-manmade snow I've ever seen in person since a 16-inch blizzard a few years back.
We kept ourselves busy sledding down our driveway, our neighbor's driveway (they're kind of strange, to be honest), and two roads (one of which I was able to sled 20 MPH down on). We were out there almost nonstop (save a thirty-minute break) from 8:00 to 11:00 at night. On the final run, I had to pull up my head to avoid brick steps and a trash bin, then I spun down until I slammed the bottom of my left kneecap into a fence.
The edge of the fence.
I dislocated it, but it popped back into place quickly enough for it to be sore today and not actively hurt.
Later, as I was going to sleep, I heard the peculiar sound of a bird hitting a screen, and then something snapping. It turned out to be a heavy-duty umbrella that snapped in two because of the ice.
Now, it's impossible to get outside today due to the snow.
