A Dumb New Yorker

You'd think I'd learn by now. I knew a snow storm was coming. I've been watching the weather and praying we get as much as they predict. The first thing I did this morning was check out the window (much as a young child would) to see if we had any snow yet. (I'm over the sad fact that school doesn't get canceled around here like it does at home... I just truly love the beauty of snow falling in the city.) ...Yet, what is it this snow-loving New Yorker hasn't yet learned? I'm a bit slow at figuring out when to wear the correct shoes (or close to correct, since I still don't own a good pair of water-proof snow boots - a must for any New Yorker!). I walked out of the house with my slip on Birkenstock-like shoes... and I suffered all the way home...

Someday I'll learn... and Hopefully soon, I'll be smart enough to buy some good boots!
