locker_monster- The summer snow continues. It had melted a bit yesterday but a fresh snowfall this morning made everything white and wet again. I regret not wearing boots this morning. My runners were soaked by the time I got to work. I guess that's mostly my fault since I walked.
For the curious, snow in late summer looks like this:
This is the provincial park near my house. If not for all of the leaves on the tree, this is what early winter usually looks like.
Because of said leaves, all of the added snow has put a real strain on the trees and neighbourhoods all over the city are dealing with broken branches. And with broken branches come downed powerlines so there are lots of homes without power right now. I'm in a neighbourhood with a lot of big trees so it seemed like every tree on the way home had a broken limb somewhere on it. It was crazy. I'm glad I took the bus home.
- Work was also stupid today. I was stuck doing a three rush orders that took all day to get organized and by the time that one of them was ready to send out, the buyer was all fed up and went home. That really pissed me off. Dumbo was all "I've been here since 5:30 this morning and I've had to go home at 3:30 for the past two days so I'm leaving now." Boo frickin' hoo. I always get into work before this buyer and I stay later than he does so he has nothing to complain about. The procurement manager also disappeared on me so when I was sending everything out there was no one to consult when I ran into an issue. Grr...
- The only bright spot to my day? My new Playstation 4 showed up today! I got the Destiny bundle so I have a new game to play. I can take out my frustrations by shooting aliens in the face.
- Should be warmer tomorrow. I might even wear my femme!Eleven coat. Because, really, it's the only highlight I can think of regarding this weather.
