Such Beautiful Luck!

So Monday night, I was pretty angry. I had a lot of homework and a history test to study for. But I knew, just as everyone else did, that Tuesday would be a snow day. And, surprise surprise, we got the day off. I had planned on hanging out with friends, sledding, and drinking hot chocolate. Sadly, that is not what happened. I was trapped inside all day, with nothing but my computer to entertain me. But then, Tuesday night (which was last night), Carrie asked me to print out her paper for her, and while I was waiting for her to send me her works cited, I got on ksdk.com and looked at the closings (looking for Parkway, Rockwood, or Valley Park, because those three are copycats off of each other), but it didn't say any of them. I refreshed. Scrolled down again. AND HOLY SHIZNITS IT SAID PARKWAY! I did not expect, at all, to have a snow day today. But I am uber happy about it!

My dad had to venture out to go get Emily from work, which involed ten minutes of shoveling his way out of the driveway, and ten minutes of driving there, and ten minutes of driving back (normally, round trip, this would take about 8 minutes or so). They weren't even plowing; he had to drive over four inches of snow (his response: "I wish I had taken the truck. The car has too many controls over it, if I had the truck, I could have done doughnuts." Oh dad.) But when he got back, he tried to shovel the driveway and the sidewalk. My mom told Emily and I that we should go help, because he's old, and I was like "SCORE!" because I love the snow at night. We piled snow on top of Emily's car, because it still has a Florida license plate, so it looks weird. And then we took a walk in the snow, which involved a lot of "My face is about to fall off," and "PICTURE TIME!" because I do like taking pictures of snow. And we were trying to get action shots of us jumping off of this big pile of snow, but that didn't turn out so well. Emily kept getting pictures of my belly button, and I kept getting pictures of her looking like a frog. And then she fell and slid down the pile and got really cold.

I love snow days. And having two snow days in a row is just awesome.
