Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
We’re supposed to get up to 20 inches of snow by Saturday morning. The snow began a couple hours ago, and already the roads are pretty bad. I wrapped my Christmas presents, and then drove to my parents’ house to drop them off, figuring that even if I couldn’t make it on Friday, at least the loot would be there. As soon as I got onto the highway, I reconsidered the wisdom of making the trip. I made it without incident, but man! I’m not budging until the plows come out, that’s for sure. In fact I might not have a choice in the matter.
But, let me tell you. I’ve got tomorrow off, I’ve got the fireplace going, the TV’s on, the cats are running around doing whatever, and my car is in its heated, attached garage not getting snowed on. If I had to be anywhere getting 20 inches of snow dumped on me, I couldn’t pick a better spot than here.
