Yes, this!! Asking people to be in at 8 and then closing at 8:30??? Not only stupid and insulting, but now you've forced people into TWO really dangerous commutes in bad weather!

Yes. Our work often decides to send people home at the last minute, sending us out in the worst of the storm.

My cold really is getting better...except that I can't lie down without coughing constantly. Last night, after trying to sleep in bed propped up by pillows, I tried again to sleep sitting up on the couch, bolstered by pillows. (Thankfully, I own a lot of pillows.) Around 3, I succumbed and took probably twice the amount of cough syrup one is supposed to take (on top of the Tylenol cold w. cough suppressant I had already took) and finally I could sleep. Ugh. I should have gone to the doctor for the good stuff.

So today, thanks to the huge dose of cold meds and my slow metabolism, I can barely move, and I need to get some stuff done.

Well, that started way earlier than expected. Target was fine. TJs was a madhouse, so I skipped The Giant. Somehow a couple inches this afternoon then rain turned into 3-5" starting at 10 am.

I am at a hipster hotdog joint.

We've gotten another 2-3 inches this morning and it's expected to snow all day. And then tomorrow it will be 50! Whatever, Nature. You're drunk.

Sue, you know not to take more than the recommended dose of Tylenol, right? I mean, I slug cough medicine straight from the bottle with little regard for dosing, but Tylenol is dangerous.

My job will usually announce closing the afternoon before bad weather is predicted, but we can all work from home and they expect us to, even when the physical building is closed.

Snowing here. At least this forecast turned out to be accurate, as opposed to the one in January that didn't pan out.

Ah shit, my y is closing in 35 minutes. No swim for me today.

Oh Zen, you should have told me that 20 years ago, when I used to slug back 5 extra-strength Tylenol at a time, on a daily basis. But now I am a good girl on the acetaminophen front. And my liver functions are fine!

My original plan for today was to go to the free core class at my PT office at 8 and then go up to Napa to have lunch and shop with -t.

Reality-- I got out of bed around 20 minutes ago, and may be going back there soon

That place needs a bonny, stat.

No lie, JZ. If that driver had been MY driver? Hell hath NO fury like my fury.

When I saw the first video of the doggy day care 'car jacking', I wondered. The dudes were so casual, there were no tools involved and they drove off in like 5 seconds.

Not even Jason Statham could have pulled that off.

Frankly, as the company PR person, I'd be handing the pitchforks to the torch bearing clients at the door.
