*makes offering to the snow gods*

Please don't let me get up early tomorrow. Please, please, just call off fucking school for once, you moronic admins who are terrified to let us have ONE DAY OFF.

PLEASE!

*bows*

1. For your sake

I hope you get that day off but I don't want the snow....I HATE snow!

:mad:

[Nickster]

2. I second that emotion. I frigging hate the snow! HATE IT! ARRRHHH.n/t

[WritingIsMyReligion]

4. Snow is fucking awesome.

:P

[bigwillq]

10. Not when you have to drive in it

As I do to get to and fro work.

3. look outside, it already is

[WritingIsMyReligion]

5. I'm in Maine. It is still a few hundred miles west.

:P

:hi:

[Cabcere]

13. Welcome to DU, mrdemocrat78!

:hi: Good to have you here...and I hope the snow's not too bad where you are! Here in southeastern Virginia, we're not getting anything - well, except for a cold, nasty drizzle of rain. x( Ah well - c'est la vie, I suppose. :)

6. I used to love snow days

My aunt is a teacher in my district and she would call my house if we had a delay or cancellation so whenever I heard that phone ring around 6am it was like music to my ears

[crim son]

7. The STBE just informed me that there will only be a couple

inches of snow, and that it won't start until late afternoon. What the heck? He'd better be wrong because I have completely rearranged my schedule because I'm counting on a snow day.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

8. The STBE is fucking with you, I think.

Though maybe not for you northerners. :P

Here in P-Town, it's supposed to start snowing overnight, with an inch or so on the ground by dawn, and then it's supposed to fall like mad for the rest of the day, with white-out conditions from noon till sunset.

:woohoo:

[Susang]

9. My father-in-law lives in New Harpswell

They've already gotten their supplies and battened down the hatches. Good luck, hope you get your snow day! I took one today (I'm in Chicago) and it was a blast! :thumbsup:

[Maine-ah]

17. eh, we never get much on the midcoast

I'm not too worried about it.

[peacefreak]

11. Dear WIMR,

I have a feeling you're going to get your wish. If it keeps up, Thursday, too. What are you going to do all day? Whole Foods is suppose to open. You can go see the "humanely" corralled lobsters!:rofl:

[GenDem]

12. It's started here

I only have one class that I teach tomorrow (part time art teacher) so it won't be any big whoop for me if they cancel.

Maybe they have hyped this one up a bit, because it isn't bad at all out -- a light snow falling , that's about it. Then again maybe it will intensify over night.

[redwitch]

14. one of my son's teachers bet his paycheck that they'll have tomorrow off.

pretty safe bet, we are expecting 15- 30" here. Shoots my week. Oh well, I have everything I need to hunker down til it passes. I just hate shoveling/driving.

[Left Is Write]

15. Not here.

I'm in one of the 20 states NOT affected by the winter storm.

[mainegreen]

16. Oh, this is Maine WIMR! You know snow wont start soon enough for school to be cancelled!

It doesn't matter what the forecast says, the gods that control these things are cruel gods!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

19. Plus I live in the most ridiculously hard-ass district ever.

Three inches? Bah! You can go to school!

:eyes:

[mainegreen]

20. White out conditions don't matter either.

They've installed infrared vision into all bus drivers now. They can see right through the storm!

:rofl:

Seriously.

:P

[liberaltrucker]

18. Forecast is for ice down heah in Alabamy

:scared:

[BulletTrain1964]

21. And here in Chiba Japan

it hasn't snowed all winter and the weather guys on TV are all wringing their hands because it hasn't "not snowed" this late in the season since the American Civil War, or something like that.

But hey, I can live with it.

[Silver Swan]

22. The worst may be past here

It's been snowing for over twenty hours, and we have a winter storm warning until 6 AM tomorrow.

I've been watching it fall all day.

I'm retired and I don't have to go anywhere, so I love snow.
