A Snowflake By Any Other Name

Before I continue with any more blogs I think I need to clarify what it is I am talking about when I refer to my "snowflake" friend.

One day I was listening to someone describe looking out the window, watching the snow drift to the ground and likened it to mankind, linking arms and creating a blanket for the earth (of course her description went on quite a bit longer than that, but you get the gist).  I though to myself, Gah!  I do not even relate to that....not one bit!  When I look out the window and see snow falling I think......it's bloody cold out there.  So much so that it's snowing and now I have to deal with drivers who don't know how to maneuver their vehicles in the snow!

I proceed to tell my good friend about this analogy and she says, Gah! I don't even relate to that!  To which I reply, "Neither do I, that's why you are MY kind of snowflake!"

.......and a lifetime of mocking those types of snowflakes was born.
