In the Wink of an Eye: Snowed In!

There are two ways to view this snow day: woohoo! or grumble, boo, hiss! For the most part, I'm going to lean toward the former. I love snow (stop looking at me like I have three heads). It's really beautiful and peaceful to look at. There is a small portion of me, however, that would rather be able to get out of my apartment. I physically can, but the sidewalk has about a three foot drift and it currently feels like -38F outside. This number is only supposed to go more negative as the day progresses.

Most of the state of Indiana is in a state of emergency and under a level 3 travel warning. This means that if you are found on the road, you can be fined and even arrested. Therefore, I called off work this morning. I don't know if they were planning on being open or not, but I think I'll just keep my butt in my nice, warm apartment. I hope they used logic in deeming it unsafe to open since all employees travel to the office and then to a client's house. I suppose I shall find out tomorrow, although it's still supposed to be freezy butt cold.

I haven't left my apartment since late on Saturday to go to my car and get a case of water that had been there for a couple of weeks. I figured that since it's supposed to be so cold, I might want to make sure I had a water supply on had. So far, I've gone through half the case. I suppose it's better than drinking other things. I usually spend my weekends at home, so I hadn't gone too stir crazy by the time I was heading to bed last night. This morning, however, I am growing closer to the "get me out of here" point! I made myself a "to-do" list, but I've been working on it since Friday night and it's just not keeping my attention. I've done a little bit of reading, watched some tennis, and sat through a few movies. By a few, I mean I've "watched" (listened to) Taxi, The Lion King, Hook, The Proposal, Speed, She's the Man (I actually watched this twice, not just listened to), and now, The Breakfast Club. As you can tell, I've been highly productive.
