    Me too. Except that RM95's Girl didn't go either, so we're stuck apart on our days off. :(

    Roads still closed. Woke up at 9AM this morning. I've still got a bunch of work to do at the office. Too bad I won't be going. :D

    This day is officially badass.

    Would it be wrong to hope for some more freezing precipitation? We can always use another day off from work/school.

    My boss just told me that we're closed today. Yay!

    With my weak car, I don't know if I would have made it to work anyway. I couldn't even open the car door; it was completely frozen.

    YES it would be wrong.

    I just drove .02 miles to the gas station to pick up some TP... and I lost control of my car on the ice and hit a pole! Another hit to the wallet.

    SNOW/ICE SUCKS!!!!

    That sucks. I just saw some low speed crashes on the news. When the NWS says stay off the road, people should stay off the road.

    At least people are able to laugh about it. On HornFans they were posting pictures from practice yesterday, and some one said:

    "here's a pic of what practice will look like tomorrow..."

    Our weather here in Dallas is not very CLEMENT - guess that's the opposite of INCLEMENT:D

    1-2 inches of sleet and freezing rain - mega bumper cars . Got to work from home today.
