Not me. Private sector, baby!
Metro was *crazy* uncrowded this morning around 7:45am. I'm usually happy to get standing room near one of the doors. Today, a seat, all to myself. I wish all my commutes were like this.

I'm home. It's just not worth the hassle to me. I'd rather burn the vacation day.
I hate the fact that I'm not allowed to telecommute. I could easily do 90% of my job from home. In fact, I'll probably end up doing some work today anyway.

my client's building is opening late, so i got to sleep in an hour and am about to head out the door. scrapping off the car, which was parked outside last night, promises to be fun.

Count Me In! Work called me to tell me that the office was closed. Now, I got to shovel all the ice and snow that was left behind.

I'm home, and planning to watch as much bad TV as possible. I've already started with "E! True Hollywood Story: Drew Barrymore."
Did you know Drew Barrymore's rise to fame was swift and turbulent? Neato!

on the ramp leading from the george washington parkway on to 495 north, i was going too fast, hit a snow patch, spun 180 and ended up eating the snowbank. all turned out fine, i was rather calm during the whole affaire except for the momentary thought that the snowbank wouldn't stop me and i'd plough through it and end up in the deep ditch. didn't happen. all-wheel drive assured that i could get out of the snowbank, but i then found myself facing the wrong way on 495 with no shoulder to turn myself around in. had to wait for a big break in traffic and pull out in to the middle of the highway.
maybe i should have stayed home.

I've been teaching for eight years now and I still don't know the drill. Don't we get out early if there are NO snow days? And we can miss four days and the schedule stays the same? Actually I don't give a shit. Having a teenager schedule kicks ass. It certainly is one of the better things about the job.

Got up at 7:30 to see if the university was closed. After seeing that it was I went back to bed. I just got back up about five minutes ago.

My office is closed. We are all supposed to be "working from home" today.
