Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

Friday, Snow Day!

2 March 2007 by Two Crazy Dogs

It was snowing so bad on Thursday, I left work early. I didn’t really want to, but all my co-workers told me to. Roads were pretty slippery because of the freezing rain earlier.

Once I got to the driveway, I was stuck again on the hill. Damnit. Friggin ice under the snow, again. Rolled it down to the street for DB to take care of it.

The concert I bought tickets to, Brahms German Requiem was cancelled. Called the orchestra hall to do an exchange for May 25. Unfortunately it will not be the German Requiem.

On Friday morning, the city has not come through with their plows yet. I think there was 10 inches of snow on our driveway. Took a look at our backyard, there was probably 15 inches of snow.

Took Friday off as snow day. Called my company’s toll free number to check if the company closed due to the weather, but hell no. “The XXXXX facility is open on Friday. All XXXX businesses in the Twin Cities are open.” Son of a bitch. I had to take a personal day for today.

The city plows finally came to plow the streets around 10:30 a.m. and plugged up the driveway. DB did all the unplugging, and me, I cleaned the house.

   Waulau! That is a lot of snow. And freezing rain owns me. I have the bruised bum to prove it. How to live in that environment? I could not. Your boys seem to like it just fine.

   So what concert will you hear?

   Warm weather …try ours!
   Yours is nothing compared to here.So don’t complain.

   Heh, you know something.The picture taken with your friends during CNY.You all look like “choongs”.All wraped up real tight.
   So why do you enjoy the cold when you need to put on so many layers.
   Over here one just need to pop in to the malls for freezing tempretures.Some offices are like that too.
   So,move back here.You don’t need to be wraped up like a “choong”.You can wear as minimum clothing as you dare to.Sorrylah birthday suite not acceptable here.That will keep you cool but not for the others.
