So here's how my "morning" (some call it the night) started, per my AIM log.

Hmm, it's raining. Yay.
Nothing says fun like low 30s and rain.

Supposed to be icy and nasty as all hell, from what others have said.
You'd think that when someone from out of state even knows that it's bad outside, I'd pick up on it. But no, I managed to head out to walk to work without a plan for sidewalks covered in layers of ice with fresh rain on top of that. It only took two houses for me to be on my ass on the rain-slicked ice...and then again about four houses later. I went down to my knees or butt four to five times on my way to work; by the time I got there I was soaked. Thankfully, everything managed to dry except for my socks. Nothing says fun like working on your feet for eight hours in wet socks.
At least I'm home now and only slipped two more times on the way home. There's no way I'm leaving the house again at this point.
