So it snowed today. Not a lot, in keeping with this winter’s trend of negligible snowfall (global warming, anyone?) but enough to make the world look like a black and white photograph. It’s quite beautiful, really. Perfect for taking a little stroll through the neighborhood. And you know—weather like this is the perfect antidote for head colds and partying-all-night lag (no time to explain, but let’s just say we all rolled into bed about two o’clock this morning). And so I walked a little bit and brought my camera and did not take any pictures, believing that there were no spots “good enough” for a photo, but did spend the entire time thinking about life and shit, because that is what a somber and beautiful winter landscape will do to you.
