Funny, we're supposed to get the exact same amount of snow here. Should be a fantastic drive in to work tomorrow. I think I'll leave at 6 to try to be there for 7 (usually takes 30 minutes).

In other news, a giant WOOHOO! I'm getting a remote starter for Christmas courtesy of the parentals. No more getting into a freezing car in the pre-dawn darkness for me.

So, am I the only fool that waited 'til the last minute to put on their snow tires? Nothing beats changing tires in the dark, mid-20's, 30mph winds...I'm such a freakin' idiot sometimes...

Not quite...

I still got my summers on...so if there is lots of ice and snow around next week, I am screwed. You can all laugh at me. If you want a live show, I will be at Logan Express Woburn, next Thrusday night at about 7:30-8:30PM (depends on the Boarder and Customs Service and how fast the luggage folks move at Logan).

However they will be put on Friday sometime.

Yeah..........the snow. Um, seeing as the entire state is shut down, it's supposed to snow an inch an hour for the next few hours, periodically mixed with rain (ice?) until 5, and my boss told me my personal safety was first, I think I'm going to stay home today. Screw this, I'm not driving 30 miles in a blinding snow squall just to sit at a desk all day only to come out to 10 inches of snow on my car, and a road covered with ice. I'll take the vacation day if I must.

snow wimp. (I'm at work)

[NoNo]

Hey, at the end of the day, I'll be able to sleep just fine. As a matter of fact, I think I'm going to go back to bed now.
