I said I would go in today, despite missing work due to a cold yesterday. But... My car is completely plowed in. It didn't occur to me to get a shovel for the car, which I now realize was totally dumb-ass of me. The buses are not running today. I will have to walk to work, but no one has shoveled their walks yet (which reminds me, how am I going to get to the house to shovel?). I'm still feeling like crap (but a lot better than yesterday).
In addition to my car being plowed in, the road from my place to the main road is blocked off because of fallen power lines. I have no idea when that will be fixed so they can plow that road. I DO know another way of getting out to the main road though, assuming there are no down lines or down trees over there.
So what is the plan? Not sure. I have about an hour to decide if I'm going to walk, dig my car out with a spoon (or more likely, my hands), or stay home again. I DO have the paid time, but if I use it now I can't use it later. We shall see.
I missed the thunder and lightning though, which is too bad. But I slept reasonably well, which is good!
Edit: Screw it. I'm staying in. I'll dig my car out by hand in a few hours when the sun is actually up, then go to the house and shovel this afternoon.
