2. I have a feeling that the rest of my day is planned.
Plus I'm out of salt, and need to dig my car out before I can get some more.

6. I didn't want a nastygram from the mailman.
He likes his sidewalks spotless. It was about 2 feet deep in a few places too. :(

I was just about to go out and shovel for probably a couple of hours (x() but if you're getting hammered again, that means we will be, too, in just a few hours. Dammit, dammit, dammit...

Don't hurt yourself with the digging and shoveling!

8. That gives me hope.
Then again, we get a lot more if the "lake effect"* where we are.

*For non-Chicagoans, "lake effect" is weatherman-speak for a bunch of fucking snow.

10. It's a catchall phrase like "El Nino".
It means, "We have no idea why it's doing what it's doing, so we'll blame it on this!"

12. It finally cleared up.
I just finished the driveway, the street, & a path to the garage. The sun came out, so I salted everything too.

I think I'm done for the day, except for making a path in the alley so I can get my car out of the garage. Maybe we're done for a few days.
