Snowpocalypse Now!

Snowpocalypse Now!


DATELINE: FEBRUARY 1, 2011


LOCATION: IOWA

TIME: 8:31 p.m. CST



Old Man Winter has 8 inches. 
Oh yeah.  I went there.

The Snowpocalypse started around 3 p.m., and it's now 8:30, so it's been snowing for about 14 hours.  Oh, wait.  Five?  The newsroom tells me it's been just over five, but it feels like a week since I found out there isn't any chocolate in my house.  I've had to get my Survival Kit together:



My wine, my Blackberry, and my lucky pomegranate.
If I had some Flavor Flav fried chicken
and a brownie, I could handle anything.
Family members are turning on each other.  Wii Mario Kart is turning into a Hit and Run bloodbath. Current Husband can't find Iowa State basketball on TV, and he is muttering to himself at his computer and trying to find it online and he is hangin' with The River Baron:

Admitting you have an olive problem
is the first step to recovery.

Am trying to figure out a way to hack into work computer system to tell everyone they have the day off and a $100 bonus for not driving anywhere tomorrow.  In the interim, one creature in our house would like to go outside:

Poor George the Superpet. 
At least he still has his polar bear coat on.

We are also in the midst of the snowpocalypse here in St Louis. Or should I say sleetpocalypse. Because most of what we have on the ground is ice and snow is just starting to fall.
