So...what are YOU doing during the blizzard?

Recommended Posts

Started this out of curiousity ,and well quite frankly, boredom. This one's for my fellow New Englanders, as I'm sure that you Californians don't have the same problem we do right now.

 

Here in RI they've already shut everything down for tomorrow, which luckily means no getting up early for my first job. The snow is so bad that in New Bedford, they've even taken the plows off the road for the time being. Personally, I don't mind driving in snow (in fact I love it) but it is pretty brutal out.

 

I'm going nuts being stuck inside since yesterday, although it's given me the free time I never have to get errands around the house done. I also managed to watch Cellular, Basic and Boondock Saints yesterday, all of which get the Malibu Thumbs Up ™. Today other than shoveling and watching the Pats go down, I have no real idea what I'm going to do to stay occupied, unless I can miraculously get out and head for a friends house to at least keep company during the storm.

 

How about the rest of you snow-ins?

Been playing various video games all nght and day...basically nothing changed from the norm :)

 

I'm hoping work is cancelled for me tomorrow too, cause my car is 100% buried right now and I really dont want to go out there to dig it out.

Pissed that I'll have to walk through this stuff to get to my classes tomorrow. Right now, listening to music and waiting for the NFL Playoff games. Watching The Gift on TNT to try and kill time.

Marveling at Manhattan's inability to deal with a woefully inadequate snowfall for the predictions we were getting. They didn't get a salter or a plow out to my street till late last night, and despite today being supposedly the big snowfall day, we've still got barely a few inches on the ground.

Sitting here. My bus leaving New York City for Binghamton today was cancelled, and so I'm now stranded here until tomorrow.

 

Which means I miss the first day of the new semester's classes.

 

Whee.

I drove from Albion, Michigan, to Miami (OH) University for a meeting I had to attend. This was at the very beginning of the storm at like, 1:30 AM. It took 8 hours to get there. Of course, the ride back the next day (Fuelled by energy drinks) was much better as there was a lot more light and much less snow.

I pretty much stayed in the house all weekend with my girlfriend but her period decided to show up on Friday.

Were getting hammered here in Nova Scotia with 60 cm of snow, the plows haven't done our roads yet, but I like it.

I've been watching a lot of DVDs since the snow began to fall Friday night. Don't really mind it, though, since I've had a lot to do around the house and being snowed in pretty much forced me to get around to it. Shoveling is an absolute bitch, though, since my mom seems to think that we don't need a snowblower for a massive driveway.

I think I would've rather faced the blizzard. Being with a girl on her period within closed confines can result in confrontations not unlike UFC.

I was going to go out to a friend's house to watch the game, but seeing my car buried under a 5 foot drift changed my mind. Damn Mother Nature and her 30" strap-on.

I'm doing what all true Canadians do. Go outside, take the elements by their collar, laugh in their face, throw them down and crush their throat underneath our feet. From that ritual comes tougness and from that comes the toughest wrestlers in the world. There's a reason why Canada at such a low population produces the toughest wrestlers ever.

Math confuses me since it looks like we're eating WA all up.

 

Freddie the Fast Fish may not have been the best teaching method.

We got about 10" here. It started Saturday morning and stopped late Saturday evening. I dug my car out once the snow had stopped. This morning, I went to work as normal. Snow doesn't bother me; what does is the fact that many people in MD go apeshit when it snows and lose what little driving ability and common sense they had.
