At work. This is dumb.

December 8, 2005 Stephanie Leary 4 Comments

So there was a huge freeze last night, prompting just about everyone to shut down for the day… except my office. We the happy few spent half an hour thawing our cars this morning so we could get here on the icy overpasses, passing the wrecked cars on our merry way.

This is irritating. I could use the day off to, y’know, locate my brain.

    Nope, the System Offices just didn’t close for whatever reason.

    I thought System Office people really were essential. Hehe.

    I won’t be down tonight. Party was cancelled & rescheduled for Monday. So I may be down Sunday night instead. You free then?
