The Glass Half Full (of Snow)


            Snow?  Check.  Cold?  Check.  Chi-beria?  Oh yeah, or the North Pole or the South Pole or Antarctica by the Lake.  Chicago has it all in a white-death, the-sky-and-earth-merge-in-gray-at-the-horizon sort of way.

            And yet softball starts to practice for real next week.  Come February, time will exist on two tracks, the frozen outside and speed-of-light inside.  Then, boom, March, and off we go for six straight weeks of doubleheaders, hope and dread.
            When it ends, January will seem so long ago.  I hope.
