Now, the fun begins.
For those of you who don't know, with
everything else going on we just finished a 36-hour splurge of this--
Yeah, I know. Throw in a plague of
locusts and we'd be all set.
Wait, what? There's a plague of locusts in Africa right now? Never mind...

You're looking at something around 18
inches of wet, heavy slush that started late Sunday night and finally
(finally) ended yesterday afternoon. It was horrid walking to work
through it, but my mind (as always) did pop to the bright side of
things—if you're gonna have a horrid storm like this one, at least
this was the best time to have it.
After all, everyone's stuck at home and
can't go anywhere anyway, right?
I know my landlord didn't bother
snow-blowing the driveway until last night. If things were “normal”
he would've been out these early Monday morning and then again Monday
afternoon just to make sure everyone needed to get where they were
going. But since Loraine and I were the only ones who needed to get
anywhere, and since we both walk to work, he just let the snow pile
up until it was done.
See? A win-win for everyone.
Thankfully, it's over now, and it
wouldn't surprise me if there were a lot of homeowners who did just
like our landlord. If you can't go anywhere, and it's supposed to be
in the 40s later this week, the snow should melt on its own, right?
Like I said, if you're gonna get a storm like this, this is the
situation in which to get it.
Hopefully, though, the snow is over for
the year. If not, then we know Mother Nature REALLY has something
against us.
