My oomph has been AWOL for years.
Atlanta deals badly with snow, but rarely gets more than one snowfall past a few flurries a year. It would be fiscally crazy to have the equipment sitting around the other 364 days a year. The airport has snowplows and the DOT salts the overpasses, but that's about it.
People from the north mock the fact that Atlanta-area schools close on the faintest of chances of snow, but after SnowJam, they're unlikely to take any chances. About 25 years ago, a snowstorm that was much earlier and much worse than predicted hit at about noon, and the schools tried to send kids home. Some kids were stuck in buses in freezing weather for 8+ hours and some traffic jams were so bad that people abandoned their cars where they were. Wrecks blocked every exit from where I worked, so I gave up and slept in my office.
One hour to vacation....
tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock.
No ooooomph here either.
Yay for Zoe!
We are v. far from snow - it's 72 and misty/foggy here. Which as those of you on FB know, did not stop me and two coworkers from walking around caroling. As lapsed Methodist with Jewish tendencies, I had very mixed feelings about it, but everyone seemed to take it in the spirit of fun in which it was offered.
I had my evaluation today, and it was pretty good. I think, had my boss been around more lately, it would have been even better. /pet peeve
Oomph or no oomph, I think I'm ready to go. I've got a couple of trips to do, which is a little annoying, but then I'm outie. Er, outy. Um, I'm history. Later, y'all!
Nephew? Still cute.
vw, I think we're going to need proof of this. Pictures should work.
I happily ignored someone from high school on Facebook, even though she is friends with one of my cousins.
It's freakishly warm here too. I was shopping yesterday and the store was way too warm, because it's really warm enough to need A/C in a store, if only for the humidity.
Feel free to mock my weather problem.
It's possible I have your oomph, but if so it's over there somewhere and I can't be bothered to get up and go get it.
The was scrapeable frost on my car this morning. Not fair.
I also have no oomph. In fact, I'm so lazy that I'm not going to go over to Best Buy to get the gift cards I was going to give to my brother and nephew and will go to Walgreens and get them AmEx gift cards instead. I can get my greeting cards there, too, so I'll only have one stop to make on the way home.
Count me amongst the oomphless. 17 minutes and counting...
Argh.
