It is still snowing

I came to work today because of a Big Grad School informational Meeting at 10:30. I'm here, even though I was awakened by cramps at 3:00, 4:30, and 6:40 a.m. Good times. I trudged up in the snow (feeling bad for [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick who's gonna have to shovel this shit when it stops--if it stops) and watched someone slide out of control coming down the hill. He was coming right at me. Thank god for curbs, people. That's all I'm sayin'.

It is still snowing.

We got this email at 8:24 this morning: "Due to poor road conditions and to encourage safety, supervisors are advised to be tolerant of late staff arrivals and faculty are advised to tolerant of late student arrivals to class."

It is still snowing.

George Foreman was not a go last night. Bummed about that. I spent the evening with hard liquor and a heating pad. I got to read a good book, though. This Is Not a Game. I plowed through it in under four hours. I'm not sure it's SF, but it was a fantastic thriller/adventure.

It is still snowing.

If you want to see something that made even me smile today, check out AxeCop (SFW). I'm not going to explain it or beg you to click the link. But if you don't take the moment to go check it out, your loss, buddy. A huge thank you to [livejournal.com profile] curieuse for the heads-up on that one.

It is still snowing.

One to three inches my fat white ass.

I am very glad you weren't hit by a car.

I hope you feel better.

Oh and you are totally right, 1 to 3 inches isn't nearly enough.

That's what she said.

Man you are brave.

I was thinking about going out to start the shoveling before PDA gets home from school, but it's coming down so fast there's no point.

Feel better L. Continue to avoid cars.

Between you and Rae, I don't even want to look outside....

It's not pretty.

It's GORGEOUS (to look at). See?

And the cemetery looks really pretty too!

I think Lydia will read your comment in multiple ways....

[identity profile] bestill.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Well, I really meant, it looks pretty with the snow . . . that keeps falling . . .

if it were a newer cemetery, it wouldn't look as pretty.

Wow. That tree looks so lonely.

Jinkies! Good job avoiding getting run down.

That comic is INSANE.

Good job avoiding getting run down.

Good job nothing.

I just stood there and watched it come for me. Seriously. It was like this slow-motion thing and I just watched it (almost) happen.

Perhaps on snowy days you should test your reflexes before leaving the house.

I wonder what they'd say if I called that in.

"Hi, can't come to work today. I'm slow."

[identity profile] mckitterick.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"...and I'd like to stay that way (as opposed to STOPPED)."

Ok, I've been trying to resist, but the fingers just took over the keyboard:

Hang your HOT white ass out the window and melt this stuff allready :)!!!!

Oh if only that was possible...

Axe Cop... [blink, blink, snort]

Yeah... still...snowing... I even slid turning a corner in 4WD in the Jeep of Awesomeness. Will be going out again later to get a big girl hair cut... bangs and all...so that's motivating. ...and then to pick up the lad. Yep. Glad for the jeep...wouldn't bother otherwise. So glad you didn't get hit on that hill of doom.

[identity profile] bestill.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay to not getting hit! But, you probably wouldn't have had to go to work then.

"Oh the weather outsiii.... Opps I forgot you hate that song.

It will melt quick look on the bright side.


Peace
