the ice continues
Jan. 16th, 2007 08:26 amI'm up at 8am to try and determine if I'm going to work today. Of course, the weather information for our office says "This is a personal decision." Conditions are icy around the office though, and it is sure as hell icy here. I can't make it to work without crossing at least one bridge, even by the most around about measures. I'm not sure that's any better of an idea, to be driving less used side streets. Damn it. I can't even get out of where I live without crossing one bridge, or attempting a hill with a very steep incline. I think that pobably makes my decision for me.
I sure am starting to get tired of my house. Yesterday, I watched the entire fourth season of The Sopranos, which has some shockingly funny moments I had fogotten. (Such as Christopher accidentally killing Ade's dog, and Ralph's terrible toupee.) Still, twelve hours of the Sopranos. I played a lot of WoW, and we'll see how much WoW I can play if my mail gets delivered today. Tyler and I both had our explansion packs coming in the mail. Oops.
My neighbor has started up with the damned stereo at 8am this time. What gives with this guy?
Somehow, I cut my finger open yesterday. I really, honestly don't know. It's not cracked skin though, because it is not in a place logical for that.
My balcony is all one solid slippery mess of ice. they are predicting more rain and sleet, with possible snow for today. Even if I could get to the office, I'd probably get stuck up there and that would be so much worse than being stuck here. At least at home I can take baths. They would probably want me to work all night if I went to the office. I feel bad not going into work, because I imagine it has to be pretty sparse up there by now. But I really don't feel crazy enough to attempt the drive. A) I am utterly unprepared to drive in ice. B) The vast majority of the city is unprepared to drive in ice. C) Last time I drove in icy weather, I spent hours stuck on a freeway, and then skidded across a bridge. I nearly smacked into another car and was only magically saved by grabbing the emergency brake. (I don't know, because that goes in with no braking, but it stopped the car.)
I think right now I'm just going to go back to bed.
