We had like 8 inches last night (wahey!) and it's still coming down. No matter how much we shovel our driveway we still cant get the car out because we're waiting for the snow plough to come down our road. I guess that means grilled cheese for lunch and an afternoon playing TOR grin

Its only 8 inches and you cant get your car out? Even Tessas little rollerskate with a engine car can easily handle that.

a) it's Saturday

b) i dont have a job. Well, i do: housework, which i finished most of it yesterday and i can take a day off today to chill.

Cutt, we can physically get the car out but the idiots are out in force today and its just not worth the risk of driving unless you have to. Especially on unploughed roads.

EDIT: There have already been accidents in base housing and it only started snowing last night. For Nebraska, where there is snow every winter, people really have no idea how to drive in it.

There used to be a clip online of a new woman that asks a man on TV where the 8 inches are he promised her last night.

Housework for 2 takes as much time as a job for you? Are you also a hoarder?

No, but its the only job i have, therefore i count it as my job. I didnt say at any point that it took as much time as a full time job for me.

We have a TON of places we were supposed to go today, which has kind of gone to pot now. So yeah, it is a day that has been disrupted by snow, ergo a snow day happy

Eh, I don't hate Varece either. I rather pity people like her that are so unhappy they need to go online to find vulnerable people to pick on.

and you know, for a northern state that regularly gets cold/bad weather, you would think they would be used to it up there.

We have lived in this house over 12 years and power has never gone out when it snows but it always does in outlying areas so of course makes the news. This winter my wife said we should buy a generator. I'm thinking it will set another 12 years and never be started. I asked her if she was smoking crack.

Well, that would cost about $600 then we need an electrician to come out and make an electrical connection so we can plug it into the house and that would be a few hundred more. Then we need a place to store it and we really have no room.
