Let it snow!

Snow is forecasted for tomorrow! I think snow goes well with a cold London. It makes everything look pretty for awhile before things turn ugly. I'm looking forward to the lazy snowflakes falling idly by and falling faintly, faintly falling to blanket the capital. (<--This is a *James Joyce reference by the way)

(*As an aside, James Joyce was writing about Ireland. But he described snow as such:
'His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling, like the descent of their last end..' Isn't that one of the best lines of prose you've ever read about snow?!!? It is in my opinion and from one of my favorite short stories! You'll have to Google the line yourself to find out which story it came from.)

Ok back to London and marvelous snowy and wintry thoughts...

On Tuesday evening, E (one of my best London girl friends from America) and I are going ice skating at Somerset House. We asked all our British friends to join us but all of them weren't interested. We're excited because it's sponsored by Tiffany & Co. They'll have hot chocolate in special Tiffany blue cups! The falling snow should be the perfect back drop! I'm excited.

P.S. London Complaint of the Day:
Tube strikes cause looooong delays for my morning commute. I left at 7:45 and didn't get to work until 10am today. Normally this is a 14 minute journey on the train. Evil.
