SNOW DAY!!!

i woke up this morning to snow on the ground, but it didn't look like enough to stop work, so i got ready, got dressed, packed my lunch, cleaned off and warmed up the car, took a few pictures, and hit the road! ... errr ... isn't there a road somewhere here? it's ok, i was driving the tank, no problem. so as i made my way down the snow trail, i called andrew to tell him he wasn't allowed to try and drive the little car in this weather, and called page to tell her i was on my way in. the conversation went something like this:

rrriiiing!
page: (in supersonic tones) SNOW DAYYYYY!!!
me: hello!
page: i wasn't even out of bed yet. you not coming?
me: oh no, i'm on my way! but i haven't found any roads yet...
page: oh no, be careful, are you sure you want to come in? mhoon's not coming in.
me: no, it's ok, i'm driving the tank! but i am worried about getting stuck at work if it keeps snowing like this.
page: turn around, come in later when it gets better.

soooo... i came home and made bacon, eggs, muffins, and coffee for breakfast, chatted with andrew, watched the million-hour-snow-coverage (it's snowing, it's still snowing, don't drive, you might die, oh yeah, there's an historic inauguration today! this just in, road plows hitting the streets because - it's snowing), watched the dogs run around in our snowy field (but didn't get any pictures, sorry), and am trying to keep warm under the covers on the couch while i watch the snow come down and the news bounce back and forth between obama and snow.

i guess the waiting and watching continues, checking in with oberlin to see if i should venture out, and watching the snow continue to fall.

to show you how early it was, a picture without the flash:
my breath fogging up the picture:more (and better) pictures are on my flickr page.
