Choking on a snowflake.
True story.
Mishap occurs more than you'd think. I will never not recommend a brisk walk during a snowfall but if the wind(chill) is blowing a certain direction—the exact direction one must trudge to return home—well, dear friends, don't sing along with your ear pods or risk inhaling those adorable fluffy (damn) (killer) snowflakes.
One more thing: if it weren't March this post would be unnecessary (even embarrassing) but it's time FOR THE MELT TO BEGIN. Sigh.

I think a worse calamity is when your nose hair freezes together in a big clump.
ReplyDeleteHa. True dat.
DeleteCodex: You coughed it back up?
ReplyDeletePffft. When the windchillfreeze makes your eyes water and your eyelashes stop working.
Codex: Tremblant. What's-40C in Fahrenheit?
ReplyDeleteYes.
F.k
You know my pain, don't you Codex?
DeleteThoughts & prayers & thanks for the warning :D
ReplyDeleteHaha! Well done, sarcasm.
DeleteHey, better a snowflake than a bug. And yes, I speak from experience.
ReplyDeleteRelatable. Sigh.
Delete...spring is coming my friend, it always does and it's worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteLove your attitude.
DeleteThis is most terrible. lol
ReplyDeleteBut yes, the thaw is coming and almost here, at least in Eastern Ontario.
Northwestern Alberta...not so much.
DeleteWorst $#@&(*%!!! winter for a long long time. Luckily I haven't choked on a snowflake yet, mainly because I've been avoiding the cold white outdoors.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Still embracing the outdoors but FOR HOW LONG WILL IT EVER END?
DeleteHang in there, girlfriend. You'll get spring a day before I will. PS Yeah yeah, you're a boy, I know. Honorary girlfriend, then. -Kate
ReplyDeleteYou are correct; I should cease whining.
DeleteAlso this: I am quite touched to be an honorary girlfriend. Insert fist bump here.
I knew you'd take it the right way. Good men do.
DeleteChoking on a snowflake sounds like something I would do.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind dishonesty, haha.
DeleteI got all choked up while reading this post. Either it's solidarity/sympathy or I still have a cough and a head full of, well, stuff. Also, you're supposed to run *between* the snowflakes. Everyone knows that.
ReplyDeleteHa, "choked" up. Thank you and yes I will run between the snowflakes from now on.
DeleteHadn't thought of that risk, but at least you got a photo of the offending flake. I've seen a side-ways blizzard in North Dakota but didn't stand in it. We wimps down here like those mouth covering scarfs. Careful out there! Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteNot wimps, just prepared. Insert fist-bump here.
