Snow Day!

Snow day today! Of course, I didn't realize campus would be closed until after I got out on the highway and saw that they hadn't salted or sanded, and there hadn't been enough traffic to melt much of the snow on the road yet. It's a fault with having lived in South Dakota, I think: I totally underestimated the amount of snow it takes to shut the city down.

Anyway, I took some photos because I'm sure you all want to see the results of this huge winter storm that has paralyzed all of Dallas-Fort Worth.




To be fair, out my front door it looks a little bit more dangerous. The red circle points out the real, actual, fluffy snow we're getting instead of the more normal little hard ice pellets that fake being snow. (It's snowing a lot harder as I write this.)




Here you can see my HEROIC STRUGGLE to get out the door, fighting through the drifts of deadly snow left by the blizzard.




And the cat, who is completely weirded out by this white stuff. The news says we may get an accumulation of UP TO A WHOLE INCH. I'd better get out to the grocery store and stock up on essentials!




And the recumbent bike I put together last night.
