initially i'd been planning to spend today in my pajamas, reading, unpacking, and recovering from jet lag. when i woke up at 11, though, i got really excited at how much snow had accumulated on the street outside. after cooking and eating a ginormous breakfast with my roommates (minus tao), i got decked out in makeshift snow gear and walked to the supermarket. after putting away groceries, i went and played in the snow with my friend/neighbor evan in central park. i made my first ever snow angel. and we walked up a large hill--and by walked, i mean i kept getting stuck and evan had to drag me up. we decided that the top of the hill looked like the forest lucy first sees in narnia--everything was covered with snow and untouched. after about 20 minutes i got very cold and stiff, so we retired to his apartment to have hot chocolate. i still haven't unpacked, but i think having a productive day was worth the delay. once evan figures out how to get pictures off his new camera, i'll post them here.

i'm starting to get very sleepy again. hopefully i'll put everything away before collapsing again.
