1. Sadly...aside from flurries that won't stick, it will not snow.
I'm trying to use reverse psychology on mother nature. :D

But, I'm preparing for work anyway. x(

13. I could mail some to you to put around your car...
then take a picture and send it to your boss and tell him the car can't leave the driveway. Now, if I could find a pair of socks before my toes fall off.

27. They are VERY bad.
Just the bridges of course. Once people are home, I might venture out again. It's not the sliding on the bridges that hurts, it's the sliding off the bridges or into other cars that hurts.

Although we could possibly have the "flurries," I am a big wuss and I can't handle the cold. :)
