Hibernation Day

Last night I said it. I told everyone in my family that I wasn't going to school today. Snow day, I said. I'll be honest... I only said it because I was desperately wanting one. But then I woke up this morning and found that it had snowed. And it had snowed enough to cancel school.

And for that, I am thankful. I got a wonderful hibernation day. A day to sit inside, relax, finish the papers I was meaning to do last night for school... all the things that I needed just a little more time for. Mmm.

Enjoy your day, whether you be hibernating or not.

Hibernation Day
[Jars of Clay]

I don't want to get out of bed
You don't want to go out in the snow
We don't have to do the things Eskimos do
Let's have a hibernation day, me and you

The snow is climbing up the door
(so much higher than before)
The weatherman is sure there will be more
(I don't want to go out in the snow)
These blankets make a cozy little cave just for two
Let's have a hibernation day

I love the snap of winter air
and the snowflakes on my face
How the snowdrifts make the cars
Disappear without a trace
I'll take a day dressed in pajamas
in a room without a view
If I can spend the day curled up next to you,
next to you (next to you)

I don't want to get out of bed
You don't want to go out in the snow
(It's so cold outside)
Let's have a hibernation day
We don't have to go out in the snow
Let's have a hibernation day, me and you
