Let It Snow

If the temperature is really going to drop, I say "Let it snow!" I realize other areas have experienced lots of the white stuff lately. We have not. We are in a drought from lack of snowfall. I washed my car yesterday, hoping to ensure the snow will actually fall.

In other news, Michael and I celebrated our wedding anniversary yesterday. I read that the modern day gift for the 27th is a sculpture. We didn't exchange gifts. Instead of presents for Christmas, Anniversary, & birthdays this year, we are taking a trip. We're putting on our adventure pants and flying around the world. Literally.

In an effort to make my birthday a big celebration, Michael booked our trip the day before my birthday this year. He figured it would be wonderful to be in Seoul, S. Korea with Christopher & Lauren. I'll never have another birthday quite like it. It will be my shortest birthday ever.

I noticed on the calendar, we "spring ahead" to daylight savings time at 2:00 a.m. on my birthday. I won't even notice. Just before my fellow Denverites jump ahead, losing an hour of sleep, I will have crossed several time zones and be disembarking on another continent. I will have spent the first half hour of my birthday on the airplane. The last 7 1/2 hours will be spent in Korea. My birthday will be shortened to 8 hours or 1/3 of a normal day. So I don't feel cheated, I'm not sleeping a wink on my birthday. I'm staying awake the entire 8 hours.

To make it all of the way around the world, Michael and I are flying home via London to visit Sarabeth-author of Adventure Pants. I hope when we return, I can still fit into mine.
