Snow day!

perry · 02-13-2007, 07:41 AM

We're getting a pretty decent amount of snow here in Central Indiana, so I make sure to leave plenty early for work. Just live about 5 miles away and I left about 20 minutes earlier than normal. As I'm driving in, slipping and sliding around, the boss lady calls and says that the company is closed for the day. Doh! I'd called our severe weather hotline right before leaving the house, but I guess they made the decision in those 10 minutes. So now I get to sit around the house all day..

Just saw on the news about our company. They say that this is the first time that the company has closed in decades.

Going to be close to 80 here today. Sorry you have to stay home and maybe game or something.

Bah! I'm still at work. Been here 9 1/2 hours and who knows if I'm leaving anytime soon. There are some pilots that don't want to fly in this weather, and I can't leave until they decide one way or the other.

Good thing I filled my cats water and food dishes before I left the house last night. Poor guy's pro'lly worried about me! Or he's just staring out the window at the squirrels outside, thumping his tail occasionally.

I'm tired...so tired...it's going to be a long drive home.

I never get snow days! I can't figure out why either.

**ThePenguineer** · 02-13-2007, 09:05 AM

Cool!

I was just up in Indiana over the weekend (at Purdue for a conference) and the snow was wonderful for a girl from Texas! It helped a lot that it was a clear day with the snow still on the ground and that Purdue is such a beautiful campus. Three days was just enough of the stuff. I couldn't imagine how you guys live with 3+ months of it, though.

**Trooper** · 02-13-2007, 10:42 AM

University of Illinois canceled classes and started closing facilities around 9am today. I made it to work, don't understand what all the fuss is about. When I was a student here, we had worse days than this. Only day classes were ever canceled was when the power plant sorta blew up.

Needless to say, I'm catching up on a lot of work at least.

icky · 02-13-2007, 12:33 PM

I want snow!

We haven't had a decent snow all year.

perry · 02-13-2007, 12:43 PM

All the white drives the camera nuts..

**Wimpinator** · 02-13-2007, 02:31 PM

Perry needs more cars.

We haven't had a decent snow this year either. It's all just rain. It's raining right now as a matter of fact.
