I went to the exhibit last year and it was really crowded! Fun though.
I stayed home yesterday, but braved my icy parking lot today and made it in with no problem. Nothing like snow to really bring out the fact that people are inconsiderate. No one in our lot shoveled. And you know they're going to take my lovely shoveled spot when they get home.
meanies.

heres a question:
did anyone get to stay home from work yesterday because their work was closed for "non-essential employees"?
if so, how did that make you feel?

A Canadian complaining about flying ice?
Isn't that like an Arab complaining about the price of gas?

Well, UMCP was closed yesterday but many physical plant and resident facilities employees had to work. Gotta clear the lots and sidewalks and feed the freshman. The libraries were closed so I stayed home and slept in. So did the professors. I felt relaxed and refreshed, got in some listenin' and readin'. And I didn't lose a day of pay.

maybe. but…
i wasnt complaining about ice necessarily, and even if i was, an arab complaining of the price of oil is not similar in any way.
sand would be better, yes.
probably still just as bigoted, but a little more witty and more on point with the analogy.

at work in NYC. but its not sooooo bad. the roads are a bit of a mess and as long as the streets havent turned to ice and i can walk home its all good.
ill hope the subway isnt as much of a nightmare. earlier there were delays on a bunch of the lines.

Our county schools, in Arundel, are out tomorrow. This is maybe a little too much. I love snow days, but is it really that bad out there?

i went out yesterday and everything was fine. but i know that at least in montgomery county, they haven't been able to clear all of the parking lots because everything keeps re-icing. it is divine.
and don't complain, because including the upcoming president's day, we will have had six and a half consecutive days off. which kicks more ass than anything ever. i'm just upset i didn't take a cue and go have a little new york vacation…
