Blizzard and Valentines

Feb 13, 2007 23:01

What the heck happened to Global Warming? It's February, shouldn't we be wearing shorts and swimming in pools by now?

That'd be nice.

At least, it would be nicer than the 16" of snow we've received so far today. We're still under a "blizzard warning" for at least another hour. I can't say that I've ever actually seen a blizzard, but I'd certainly hope a real blizzard is much worse than this. I drove in this, multiple times. Yeah, it's snowy, windy, and visibility sucks... but without much traffic on the roads, it really wasn't that bad. I don't understand the people who rushed out to Walmart to stock up on bread and milk.

However, I'd much rather walk on a dry sidewalk anyday than trying to find my way through over a foot of snow. I don't have boots... I wore heels today. Needless to say, my feet were quite wet and cold when I got home. On the bright side, all of the schools in the area are closed tomorrow. Even the community college is closed. They haven't said anything about IU, but hopefully they'll follow the trend. If so, the plan is to spend Valentine's Day enjoying myself. I'll drive into Indianapolis, wander through the mall, maybe get some Ben and Jerry's (any flavor but Chubby Hubby), and of course stop off at BD's Mongolian BBQ for supper. Nothing beats throwing together stuff for a stir fry, and having someone else cook it for you :)
