Baby It's Cold Outside

I woke up to about a foot of snow this morning.
So naturally I decided to drive to church. BIG MISTAKE. I know people in Utah grew up with snow, but that doesn't automatically make you an awesome driver. So you've driven in snow all your life, that doesn't make black ice suddenly visible to you. I hated all those Utah drivers going FASTER than the speed limit, or tailgating me. I will not be driving my car again until Spring.

My thanksgiving break was nice and relaxing. I slept in, did my puzzle, and ate junk food. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Under my Umbrelllaa!

I hate that song. I really do. But today was a cold, rainy day in Provo and I want to write about the cornucopia of umbrellas that I saw today. I really wish I had my camera, I would have taken pictures of all them. I promise in the future, I will have it with me at all times, as to capture these unique experiences.

1. The first thing I noticed was a few guys carrying umbrellas. I didn't know that was acceptable or cool. But I think it's dumb not to carry one just cause you're a guy. So I commend you males that had an umbrella today. Plus, you could probably use it to pick up girls who didn't have one.

2. GOLF umbrellas. They are called GOLF umbrellas for a reason. They are so big so that they can cover the golfer, his clubs, and sometimes the caddy too. They are for GOLFING. Campus is already too crowded. We already feel like cattle being herded into the barn. I almost got knocked out twice today by one of those huge things.

3. This girl had an an umbrella that instead of extending width-wise, it went down length-wise. It was like her own personal bubble. She was reading a book..It was pretty cool.

4. Then there was this elderly man - probably 60s. Looked like a pretty legit professor (probably religion by his dress) carrying a hot pink umbrella with purple swirls. Bless his heart, I'm pretty sure it was his wife's. He was using every ounce of dignity he had to carry that umbrella. I wanted to give him a hug

I thoroughly enjoyed the array of umbrellas on campus today. I never realized people could express their personalities in such a way.

P.S. My umbrella is hot pink with black zebra stripes. Thanks Ash ;)
