Is it just me or does it seem like its getting worse? I am afraid to go outside. 2 hour Go Bus delays. Yikes.

This must be payback for that one winter two or three years ago when it never dropped below 10 degrees and then we had a summer heat wave in March.
TELL MY WIFE I LOV
I throw it on the neighbours side when he's not looking.
It's nice living on a corner with the neighbour across the street having a huge lawn and being ok with me using my snowblower to cross the street and leave it there.

So do I leave for work like an hour early. Fuck this shit.

At this point you'd be better off waiting a few hours (after 6) till things clear up and roads are less dangerous/busy. I'm booking it to Eaton center and chilling up top at my usual spot sitting on the floor (loner) beside Mr Greenjeans. I don't even want to commute home in this right now.
Weather is glorious. Didn't take the bus, it was grimy and all that melting made it like a swamp in there. Instead I took a 25 minute walk through the snow. Silent, beautiful, good workout. I used to be Team Warm but this year I went for full body winter protection: boots, nice pants, neck gaiter/ balaclava, the works. Soo good. I still hate the ice, and winter layers get expensive, but Team Winter is winning me over
The cake on that table looks delicious.
This Kessel agrees.

well I don't start work till 6 but I gotta be there by 5:30 ish. Seems to have stopped snowing so now it's all about the drive. Guess I'll leave at 4:30. Shouldn't take more than an hour.

Oh I thought you were going home. lol
Yeah I'd leave least an hour early to be safe.

lol I wish I was going home. Hate my job. Hate the company (one of the big 3 telecoms). Fuck life.
goddamnit
my man
I like to laugh at people who complain about the cold but don't do anything to dress for it. Congratulations on seeing the light.
Well, she still has to drive back home from Markham to Ajax. At least for me it's normally like a ten minute drive to work (if it were me it'd be like 45 minutes at least).

One of the big three you say? Take one for the team and burn the building down.
Rogers isn't it?

There's a 33% chance you're right about that company.
I admit to nothing. And I often think about burning many things down whilst doing tech support on the phone.
I hate the cold and the winter and I dress for it. That's one of the things I hate. Love going out in a t shirt and jeans. Or hoodie and jeans or something. Hate wearing layers and jacket and hat and gloves and scarf and shit. Like please.

After like 90% of the classes are done, UTM got that too for 4PM.
Lucky. I've been hoping that my boss might send us home early but no such luck.
Only one of the few times to be lucky to be working in retail though.
I wish I had that. my class is from 4:30 - 6, and we'll still be in class for an hour
Same fucking hell.
And the go bus was full so another 15 minutes of waiting around and not studying for my midterm tomorrow!

Augh. I think we all went through a little frozen hell today. Go to class, know you're doing a good thing, cuss in your head a bit and (I'm going 'girlie' here) go home make a giant hot chocolate and love life a bit more again.
Face it Tiger..

ship all this damned snow to Sochi. :<
True. I'm not in retail but I've been sent home because of the weather before. Not today though.
edit: Someone just walked by my desk and started to laugh. They said it was how I was typing. I don't know if it is because I was slouching in my chair or if it was the typing itself. It was weird though.

Maybe covering it up in snow will hide all the ugly
I'm sure the snow is a fresher source of water than the actual water mains.
Seriously.. This school's administration sometimes.

Haha of course they are since I don't have evening classes. *rage*
But yeah a lot of places were closing early. I'm finally heading home now.
York right? I should have just skipped. the 196 is so fucking busy.

Neighbour helped out today so it was only 1 hour. As always, fuck snow.
It was so light and fluffy.
I have a looong driveway

I think of it as *the* Winter Workout
We kinda screwed up at my house, because we missed shovelling when that bit of ice rain fell (my dad has a bad leg, my mom is sort of useless, and I got a fever at the time). So we're stuck with a permanent ice sheet that's the WORST to shovel through. I feel super strong after all of that, but at the same time my limbs feel like limp spaghetti
Winter sucks. 2hrs combined shoveling. 5 hours on ttc.
