I've been living here for four years, and I still don't know how to walk on snow and ice. Plus, I live on a very steep street, so that makes it even worse. It takes me ages to get to work, whereas usually it's only ten minutes away on foot.

Where I grew up, we either never had snow, or we had it for a week or two, and during that time the number of broken bones treated in the ER would rise dramatically. :)
