White out!

It's day 2 of the NY blizzard of '06. The second largest storm in NY in 60 years. Prediction - 22 inches in the city by the time it ends. Out here in Brooklyn, my roommate estimates that we're at about 18 inches already, and it's still coming down steadily. So we are holed up inside with not much to do but watch TV. My grand plan to build a snowman in the park is being obliterated by the white out. But we did get to go out in it for a little while. Took a walk to the park last night, when the snow was only a few inches thick. Played in the snow, had a bit of a snowball fight with the roommates, enjoyed being the only people out and stopped to enjoy the absolute silence (in the brief moments between sirens and cars). But then we were back inside and here we shall stay until it is time to return to work tomorrow.
So yesterday was cheesy movie day. Started with Just Like Heaven, followed by Elizabethtown, interspersed with cookies, and a fabulous dinner. Today is Buffy marathon day with Red Eye as backup. Not to mention all the good Sunday night TV to come.
