What's this white flaky stuff falling from the sky?

I remember one day here a couple years back when KimmyKim posted on a board about what a lovely day it was in Arizona bicycling around in her shorts, and me looking out the window trying to figure out with all the snow on the ground if I would be able to make it up to the street corner or not.

Ooooh yes, I still remember!

My ex-husband and I had moved back to Jersey after living on Marco Island for the previous 6 years. Our apartment had a balcony out from the master bedroom and the sliding glass door had a gap that we became aware of when we saw the little snowpile on the bedroom floor.
When I called my parents to hopefully extract some sympathy on the plight of their cold and miserable daughter, I was greeted with the sound of my mother lightly splashing herself around on the raft as she unsympatheticly told me to move back. That's when I started sending out resumes to companies in Florida and I was in Tampa in less than a year.
Of course she also threw in "why did you let him move you back there?" but that's another story.

I'm betting it involved cheese steak cravings.

they weren't involved in the decision to move, but once I got there, I realized how much I had missed them...and soft pretzels...and italian water ice.
