Time to write, et all

Of late, writing has been pretty erratic--life in general has been pretty busy and erratic sometime too. Well that's expected if you live in greater NY area and work in the big apple.

Anyways, the overnight snowfall dumped about 3-4 inches of thick yet loose snow all over central Jersey. So I wake up to find the stairs to the parking lot covered in deep snow with no foot prints yet (and no shovel). After a couple of minutes of precarious balancing to avoid the shoes from getting wet (as much as possible), I had to spend another 5 minutes cleaning up the dense layer of snow from the car (now obviously the shoes get wet-duhh).

Mine was the 6th car on the road which usually has about 60 on a normal day and the speed at which everyone is driving is less than 10mph. The breaks are still not holding good at the lights and creating this grrrrkkkhhh sound to let you know that the tires are thoroughly soaked in snow and ice-dirt. Thanks to the AWD though, I managed to safely reach the train station (One amazing thing about NJ transit train service; it runs late in summer however run almost on schedule during such wintry days) ---way to work. Lets see what snowy mix is waiting there :)
