Weather person, Meteorologst, snake oil salesman BS CRAP! They all LIE! Rain and snow with 1/2 inch accumulation my BUTT! I closed early yesterday to spend the next hour and a half trying to drive to my apt less than 10 min away. All the while dodging every Minivan, SUVs and MTA buses sliding down every hill and major street! Plus shoveling my storefront, home and apt. What happened to the days when 13 yo kids shoveled for $5. Sheet they all want $50 BUX! What kinda GARBAGE is that! Even the illegals want $100 to shovel. What has this world come to.

ok.. thats the end of my daily rant... Have a good day!

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be yesterday. It took about an hour to get home vs my normal 20min commute. It was worse today. I thought I would be the latest person from my department to get into work today. But I'm here by myself right now. I guess I can fake like I was here on time and roll out on time .

I enjoyed my 30 second walk from my room to the shower. The commute back to my room was pretty good. The vacuum was blocking one lane but I got through pretty quick.

i got home relatively fast last night. once i got home, girl wanted to go to the mall so we went out again... during the storm

i spent 700 dollars on snow tires and put them on back in december. i was pretty fired up that we didn't really have snow all year so what can i say....

snow tires are the shizzits expensive but definitely gives me peace of mind
