Maybe while it's falling/for a little bit after it falls.

After that, no. Gross.

I love snow as long as I don't have to drive in it. Back in February I got stuck 70 miles from home when we had a freak snowstorm and had to drive home on pretty much solid ice, across bridges and tunnels and stuff too. It took almost three hours and that's only because the roads cleared up about 20 miles from home.

And @ Christmas stuff, my family will actually be decorating the weekend before Thanksgiving this year. We used to wait until Thanksgiving weekend, but both my mom and I have jobs now that are insanely busy after Thanksgiving and we just don't have time to get everything up once Thanksgiving hits.

What even is snow though? No White Christmases here!

I think I might travel to America some day solely to experience a White Christmas :')

That's because once you realize how much of a pain it can be, the opinion of it changes drastically haha.

Lived down south most of my life. Wanted to see snow again so badly (since so many fond memories of it when I lived up north briefly as a kid). Moved back up north. I now wish at times I could be back down south during winter because yeeeah.

definitely do. i recommend Colorado for your White Christmas, as it happens every single year and you'll get to see beautiful snowy mountains right in your backyard. :)

It snows way too much in the winter where I live. I'd love to go somewhere warm for the holiday season and see a green Christmas one of these days :)

No one cares about Thanksgiving, and it makes me sad. :c

What about all the food D:

I do! o/

Anybody got any special plans for Thanksgiving, by the way? c:

My Thanksgiving plans is go to work and suffer, come home, and then sleepuntil dinner time. Then sleep some more. :D My work is open from 5am-2pm on Thanksgiving and it's time and a half pay so since I don't really help with the cooking i figured why not. Worked well last year and I could use the extra money for gifts.

I signed up to work Thanksgiving. My manager was so happy to hear that I'll work both Thanksgiving and Christmas so she doesn't have to. Apparently Thanksgiving and Christmas is less fun to work for if you're a salary manager.

I used to work Thanksgiving at my old job since it was double time pay and they closed at 5pm, which worked since dinner was usually at 6.

Thankfully my new job gives me both Thanksgiving off as well as the day after. So that gives me an extra day to be lazy and sleep all day because I stuffed myself with so much food the day before ^_^

Coincidental or not? I think so.

awkwardly slides into discussion
my job requires me to work all holidays and we don't get paid extra :/

/sneaks in
Oh look, it's the DCC again.

Where will I be at Thanksgiving? Having classes and playing games. We don't celebrate it here.

YEY! :D

Anyways, I plan on going to my grandparent's house in North Carolina, the state next to me, and spending Most of the week there. It'll be fun, since my cousins and my aunt are there as well.

I'm like Katalyst, living where Thanksgiving is non-existent. So expect nothing special for me boo

Thanksgiving's already passed here, so it's just another day for us, but we do black Friday here and it's nuts x.x

We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here, but I do really want to be apart of Thanksgiving at least once -- yet another reason to travel to America for a holiday it seems!

I can understand you there Nathan. My mother always wanted to go to America but it's not due to a holiday, but rather that boyfriend she's obsessed with on Facebook.
