Snowday(s)

While most of the world is very concerned with.. well, the rest of the world--for the past few days my attention has mainly been focused on things here, regionally. On Monday night I heard a little rumor that the STORM OF THE CENTURY was headed Denver-ward and to look out for 2-5' of snow. I thought it seemed kind of dumb, especially by Monday night when there was not a flake in sight. Tuesday morning I tried to take the bus to work, and was blinded by flurries. As you can see from the above photos, I have been snowed in. Today my roommate and I ventured outside to try and buy groceries only to find Queen Soopers plugged with people freaking out about the weather. A lot of the shelves were empty and the checkout lines extended and snaked all throughout the store. Nicole and I looked at our half-filled basket and decided we weren't willing to wait a few hours just to buy some soda and Doritos.

I told my boyfriend earlier today that I was going to dedicate today to Getting Stuff Done--reading, writing, all the things I claim I never have time to do. I said that at around 1:30 p.m. MST. Now it's 7:55 and I've done jack shit.

I guess the war's begun. I'm trying to get news coverage in on my crappy antenna, and not much is happening.
