After a whole week of keeping us on the collective edges of our seats the snow finally fell on Portland, promptly burying all the roads and driving the ill-prepared populace into a frenzy of driving into snowbanks. People are finding ways to cope, but what’s that they say about a pinch of prevention? If you’ve got the sense to prepare yourself before the blizzard hits you’ll do all right. I concede I didn’t put much planning into my preparations but things ended up working out well so feel free to copy my method.
First of all, to ward off the worst of the cold make sure to ONLY consume drinks that are actually on fire.
Throw some good company into the mix, and some warm scarves, and if you both have a friend in Chicago maybe you can call her, and gosh if you can find bars with pretty waitresses where they scoop thimblefulls of moonshine right out of a barrel for you then you’re more or less set.
You don’t have to follow these steps to the letter, but it’s what I did and I think I’ll have no problem grinning through the snow-filled days ahead.
