i'd like to see a picture of what's behind your fridge. or possibly the bottom of your closet (untouched from the time you read this). or perhaps the inside of your oven. you choose :)

Dec. 13th, 2007 06:33 pmIt's snowing in Toronto today. Which translates into gentle white flakes floating downward as I walk from the house to the bus stop, and frozen bullets that drill me viciously in the forehead when I trudge from the bus stop to work.
Google maps says the distance to my work place is only 9 km. Axel calls it "Grim Northern Lands" and swears that there are dragons on the maps. That 9k results in a temperature drop of 5 to 10 degrees. Part of that is probably due to the wide four-lane streets lined with huge parking lots where the wind shrieks down the uncleared sidewalks like a demon from the Norse vision of Hell. At home the streets are short and twisted, the houses are close together and surrounded by trees and the wind can never seem to get up any speed.
Yesterday when I was walking to the bus I could hear what sounded like a large group of crows shouting and flapping around. I finally got a vantage point where I could see what was causing such hysterics - a large raptor sitting high in a tree. It was too far away to tell exactly what species, but the profile was unmistakable. It was half-again as large as the corvids who were flapping ineffectually around it and it was completely ignoring their efforts to chase it off.
Neat.
