1. Not here.

I work at a university down in the Loop. We are very much open. :-(

But enjoy your day off!

[coffeenap]

2. Oh, sorry. The emergency closing center list is the longest

I have ever seen. Be safe! Cheers.

5. I trudged through a foot of snow for 2 blocks

to get to the red-line this am. What usually takes a less than a minute took around 20.


My pants are still wet up to my knees x(

[coffeenap]

10. Yikes! Hope you can dry out and warm up!

:hi:

6. I'm at work. City streets were okay but once I got into Lincolnwood it was total

chaos. Maude I hate my job.

[coffeenap]

11. Yes, all of the burbs are a mess. Best wishes for a short day

at work and a long, healing evening warm at home. :hi:

[grace0418]

16. Thanks. I'm still here and it's going to take forever to get home.

I hope you had a nice day off though.

7. I have to go to work....

....plowing my lil' Civic through unplowed side streets! :grr:

[coffeenap]

12. Oh, sorry--please be careful and arrive safe!

:hi:

9. Hey, I'm at work right now.

I slogged five blocks in the snow to make the train this morning, too, filling my shows with slush in the process. How much bullshit is that? x(

[coffeenap]

13. Lots! What a lousy start to your day. Hope you can come home

later to warmth and comfort--and dry socks! :hi:

[ZombieNixon]

15. Well, I'm letting my socks dry out now.

There's no policy against bare feet in this office, as long as they don't stink. :P

14. It's worse than I thought.

A Waste Management computer just called and said that trash pickup has been delayed until tomorrow.

Regards, Mugu

[coffeenap]

19. A sure sign of the worst! Hope you are safe and warm!

17. I took a vacation day today.

Took me two hours to drive 12 miles last night, figured it'd be the same or more getting to work this morning. I live on a fairly busy street and it had not been touched at the time I needed to leave, and there were cars slipping and sliding all over the place. Went back to bed for a while.

[coffeenap]

18. HI! Good to "see" you! Oh, last night was crazy! I get "best mom"

award for driving my daughter to her boyfriend's basketball game in white out conditions. Granted, it was on the way home anyway.... Here's to a day of calm at home!

[greatauntoftriplets]

20. I've never heard of so many schools being closed.

Nor had my sister, who is a principal and closed hers.

Much to their chagrin, the triplets did have school today.

:hi:
