Today is gonna be the day

...that I dig my friggin' Blazer out
The snow, man it's gotta go
I'm stuck in it without a doubt

I don't believe that anybody
feels the hate I do
about it now...

I'm off to a late start, but I really would rather have more sunlight before I lay down in the white stuff to put chains on my car. My arms hurt from losing my shit over being stuck and attempting to push my car. No new snow overnight, thank gawd. I will check the Metro website to see if any of the buses I need are actually running. Right now I think the only one that's active will only get me as far as downtown Kirkland. That doesn't really help me unless I want to get drunk or buy antiques.

Ch-ch-ch-chaiiiiiiiiiiin

After 40 minutes of cursing loudly in the snow under my car, I got chains on. Both attempts to move forward resulted in me throwing a chain off my rear passenger tire. It wasn't until a neighbor came along to help that the car finally made it into the garage. I now have one chain on, and another chain somewhere in the snow. I'll go back and get it on my way out to work, but still... I really need to get that looked at.

Today can just go @#!! itself

Struggled with chains, struggled with snow, went to work, discovered my hard drive died, remembered that Outlook on the laptop is in a big fail loop, headed for home, missed one bus and the next two scheduled buses didn't show, the third one was almost full, I got sat on by a large Indian woman hollering on her cel phone, my final bus was 20 minutes late, the driver hit every damn bump and rough spot on the way, and after walking for god knows how long in the snow, I waited until I was in my driveway to bite it.

Hot shower, cold milk, Tylenol, television. I'm not going anywhere for a while.
