Where is Boxing Day?
Jan. 6th, 2007 04:49 pmI'm boiling. Somebody has stolen winter. Today, the temperature reached 70 degrees Fahrenheit (by now I've forgotten how to measure temperature in Celsius), and we went out for ice cream, walking down the main road among everyone else wearing shorts and sunglasses.
This comes after I was told that the Boston winter was going to be harsher than anything I'd ever seen even in Scotland. I'm actually quite glad of the lack of snow for getting to work, because on the one morning we did have a light snowfall last month, the trains seemed to have great difficulty coping despite most of them being underground. But after experiencing years of the vague grey slush that piled up at the sides of the road in Scotland, seeing some real snow again would be nice.
