Wow…some parts of DFW actually got snow, on Thursday!!! Snow is so rare for us that we always find ourselves making a big deal about it. Most of the time, the flakes don’t stick, and we end up with a bunch of nasty brown sludge and ice, but when we do get some snow, for a little while, we have a tiny layer of white frosting on our chunk of the earth.

I’m not really a fan of snow, though. Or of cold weather, or of wet weather. No, I’m a sunshine kind of guy, and we tend to have lots of clear, sunny skies here in Texas. If only the allergens weren’t so rough on me, I’d be pretty happy with the area. This state is quite diverse, in many ways…and we are one of the only states in the Union to be free of a state income tax. Woohoo! I’m more or less a Libertarian, so that kind of lets you know what my feelings are, toward income taxes. :P
