.snow turkeys! Also, RANK LAZINESS

Woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo!

I am now safely ensconced in NH, far away from people who break car windows and steal things, and people who scream at each other at 2am, and there is snow on the ground and a very large TV on which I can watch SGA, movies, and mindless daytime TV until my synapses melt.

Also, there is an internet connection so I can read all the awesome new fic that's been posted on [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa and look at the art on [livejournal.com profile] sga_art_santa, and now I have proper time to work on fic (and all my holiday stuff is done yay!) and there is cocoa and my orange fleece so I can be cuddly while I do all of these things.

Also, there are turkeys. Turkeys in the snow.




This turkey was right outside the office window. Usually they sense when you're trying to take a picture of them and run away, but this time this turkey stayed still.



Some of the turkeys saw Finn and flew gobbling away. He, however, was too excited at smelling them that he didn't actually see the huge flock of turkeys walking about fifty feet ahead of us.




AHHHH SNOW BEAST! The snow was up to his chest in places, and he had great fun bounding through it.


The bridge over the stream that goes behind my parents' house.


Now, if you will excuse me, I am going to be lazy for the rest of the day.

Oh, and some time in the past week my [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa fic made its appearance *shifty look*

Love these gorgeous pictures! (I always love snow in pictures - just not on the ground near me where I have to WALK!) Congrats on your ability to be lazy to the nth degree - it appears to rival mine! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy, and happy holidays! Love, max

I am very, very good at the laziness :D Lots of practice, you know.

Black dog! Eee! I love black dogs.

I am now safely ensconced in NH, far away from people who break car windows and steal things, \o/ And you know, I bet the bastards who steal things are still trapped there, without a single snow turkey in sight.

I consider this a fitting punishment.

Purdy pictures! We get snow here in VA, but almost never for christmas. Which is unfortunately, since christmas is the only time I really want snow. *pouts*

I so wish it was time for me to be lazy, too. *sigh* Just a couple more days...

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
*hugs!* I haven't seen snow at Christmas for the past several years (actually, quite a few; they've been in Florida or NY when there wasn't snow), so this time it will be really nice :D

Just a couple more days...

Soooooon sooooon!!

Your Christmas card went to you at school, but you'll get it when you get back. :)

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It might get forwarded on to me! I had all mail sent here as of last Saturday, so it might make its way to NH :)

Why must you make New England look so appealing? I already want to move there loads...

Lookit Finn in the snow! Aww.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't do that; New England does it alll on its own.

It's searing torment for me too... Already I am NOT looking forward to being back in IN in a few weeks.

You could turn the second picture from the top into a holiday card, it's particularly pretty. :-)

I just wish the turkeys were clearer! :D

Turkey footprints! Awesome. :)

Aren't they funny-looking? Turkey feet!

Eeee! So pretty! I wish we had snow. At least we're getting rain today ::fingers crossed that we're finally getting a break in the drought::

Dogs and snow are the best. *sigh*

Oh, and some time in the past week my [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa fic made its appearance *shifty look*

I totally know which one it is! *makes Rodney smug face* ;)

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh-ho, you do, eh? :D

Wonderful pix!!! and a beautiful peaceful place to recover and rebalance from the blast that is rude civilization...

hmmm... still looking for your fic... I'm *so* bad at figuring out even the obvious :-/

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It is very, very quiet here. I took Finn out last night for his walk and there is seriously no noise at all. It's wonderful.

[identity profile] kimberweeme.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty, pretty pictures!

The last time it snowed here was Christmas Eve 2004. It was light and beautiful and surprising and fun (snowballs scrapped from hoods of cars!) and gone by 10 o'clock the next morning. That's Texas for ya!

Enjoy your lazy time! I miss last year, when there was still school and a noticeable holiday break. Lazy, I want to be lazy...

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Laziness is very very good... There should be a minimum requirement of it, like for the FDA nutrition guidelines.

*flops about uselessly*

Turkeys in flight! That is awesome.

Turkeys... in... spaaaaace!!!
