Snow!

[Grey Fox]

Ugh.

So apparently we got up to 30cm (one foot) of snow today.  Thankfully I left work early, because my usual 1 hour commute took 2 hours (including picking up the boys from daycare).

Except we didn't go home - we went to get the boys their booster shots and flu shots.  After a 2 hour drive they were lots of fun once we start sticking needles in them.

Then we go home, put the boys to bed.  Except of course then it's my turn to shovel out the driveway, which has 20-30cm of snow on it.  And it's still snowing as I'm going.  Once I finished I could have just started over again, the snow was still accumulating.

The drive tomorrow should be lots of fun.

You gonna buy a snow blower now?!

I recommend taking the day off.  That's what I did.

Can't.  Trial scheduled.  Same as every other day.

Just push it to Monday.  Surely you can hang two villains in a day, right?

Does he look like the Prosecutioner?

[Barrister]

Conditions are improving!  It only took me 1hr 45min to get to work this morning!

Of course that still made me late for court.

Did the defense's petition for a speedy trial succeed?

I was 20 minutes late, and already had a colleague speak to the matter to stand it down.  Besides, the Accused was later than I was.

I'm thinking about trying to work from home this afternoon.  Fuck did that drive just exhaust me.

First snow in two years

So much on tv down south. Not a drop up north

Supposed to snow during the night. I might go for a bit of a walk tomorrow, if true.

[Barrister]

Supposed to get 10-15cm of the stuff today.

We barely got an inch and a half last night, but it was enough for the yokels to go full retard this morning.

We still haven't had a substantial accumulation this season, which is a shame, as the first snowfall that hits more than 3" shuts this place down faster than a low orbit EMP blast.

All it takes down here is about a half inch.  But we haven't even had a flurry so far this winter.  That happened 2 years ago, too--not even a flurry all winter (though, of course, this winter isn't over yet).  Last winter, though, we had an unusually high amount of snowfall for the area, so I guess it still averages out.

We had snow problems for that long?
