Why we can never move back to Michigan


This photo shows how much snow it takes for my office give us a 2 hour delay. Less than an inch of snow with a little ice on top.



This photo shows the 3 inches of snow we had this morning. My work, the academy (where Josh works) and all area schools are closed.

Notice that in both pictures the roads are plowed - and yet due to the "unsafe conditions" area businesses and schools are closed - Absurd!! I guess I get to be one of those people who say, "You kids don't know how good you have it, back in my day it could snow a foot and we still had to go to school!"

my mistake, Josh just came in from shoveling the snow and he said it was more like 5 inches. Still absurd.

I'm jealous that you got a snow day!

What did you do with your day off?

What planet are you from anyway?!

Actually, I ended up going into work - only for an hour and a half though. I think that makes me a sucker!

I agree: you're in Connecticut, for heaven's sake! North Carolina, maybe, but...are you tempered by some warmish Arctic current?!? Is snow that unusual for y'all?
