I just walked home through a freakin' blizzard outside. I swear, we're going to have three feet of snow on the ground before this stuff even tries to melt. I appreciate it a lot more right now, though, because the temperature is not biting cold. It's been in the 20's all day today as opposed to the below zero fun that we were experiencing last week.

I hate Diff Eq.

1224.1 - Beat that beyotches.

I had to use my 4WD to get across town to Wal-Mart tonight. Now, normally I would bitch about the snow, but that was actually rather fun. There's a certain exhileration to the fact that you can get places and do things other cars can't do. For instance, my car was buried in an 18-24 inch drift in the parking lot, because when they clear the snow off the parking lot, they basically just pile it in front of the cars that are parked there. All I had to do was back up a little bit and take a running go at it, and I was over the drift and on my way. My roommate, however, had to spend about an hour digging hers out before she could even go anywhere. We essentially drive the same type of car, too. Mine is a 1992 GMC S10 Jimmy, and hers is a later model S-10 pickup variety. I think the difference is in engine power and 4WD. Mine has the 4.3L Vortec engine in it, and I think she said hers has a 4-cylinder. She also has no 4WD while mine does. It makes a difference, boys and girls.

If there was ice, I'd flat out refuse to drive at all. It's just snow....a lot of it. It's not slick on the roads unless you're a dumbass who doesn't know how to drive. A fucking Ford Econoliner nearly slid into me while I was waiting to pull into the Wal-Mart parking lot. Hrmph.
