Snowing

It’s snowing in Philadelphia, so I decided to look Russian.

    I hate to break it to you but you don’t look the slightest bit Russian. Last year when I was in Cyprus there was a store in the hotel run by a Russian woman (maybe a few years younger than you). Who was easily the most Russian looking person I’ve ever seen.

    She accomplished this by pulling a grey shawl around her shoulders and slightly tilting her head. Somehow this simple act projected all the despair of a thousand dying suns.

    If you bought something she managed something that was probably supposed to be a smile that reminded you of someone reliving each and every sad dissapointment from twelve different lifetimes.

    Try imagining that you’re about to march across Siberia with only half a loaf of stale bread to sustain you and might approach a Russian look.
