swmbo at 09:07am on 21/02/2008Holy sleet and snow, batman!
I knew it was coming, because sometimes I pay attention to the weather. Really. I know. I tried to keep it secret but...it's out.
But my god! My drive into work was skeeery, kids! I was at a red light - first car - and it went green and I tried to very slowly go forward and my car was like "oh, hi. I sorta froze to the street while we were sitting here. Forward? Forward is for OTHER cars!" Not the cars behind me, though. Theoretical cars. Theoretical cars in California in Florida.
So I'm eeeeeasing on the gas, just trying to get a little bit of a push and my car is like 'oh hey, hey, what's this all about, stop it?' and not moving and then I'm gliding through the intersection in a straight-but-not-very-steady line in which I can't get ANY forward momentum.
It's better out of the intersection when I'm back on the actual road but SHEESH.
And it's supposed to just get worse and worse all day. Layers of ice and snow and sleet and hellfire streaming down from the sky. With, naturally, the worst time supposed to be at - wait for it - rush hour tonight. Oh, WORLD. You're just so cute, I pinch your cheeks.
DAMN YOU ICE! You might be my nemesis but you will not defeat me!!
One of my coworkers has pineapple. Do you think killing her for it would be out of line?
