This ice storm has horrible timing. It started today and will last right up until almost the freakin' minute that my flight is scheduled to take off for San Antonio on Sunday. Most of the precip has been sleet so far, fortunately, but there will be a lot more freezing rain before this is over. All flights have been canceled into and out of Will Rogers Airport through at least tomorrow afternoon, but probably longer. Shiiiiit.

Now I just have to sit here and hope that a) Jeremy can make it home and back to work over the next couple of days, and b) I don't lose power here at the house. No power means no heat, no internet, and no phone. It also means my garage door will stop functioning, so I won't be able to leave the house even if I want to. This does make me somewhat tempted to put my car outside now just in case I do need to leave for some reason. Stupid ice storm. I don't even get school canceled for this, because I'm still on break! What a waste.

That stinks. I did laugh at "Will Rogers Airport". I know a guy named Will Rogers. He said that if we named our baby William, he'd give me $50. We'd already decided on William for a name, so after he was born, I told him what we named him...and he actually paid up!

I'm pretty sure that you have an emergency release lever on your garage door. It should be a red (maybe) cord hanging from your electric door opener box in your garage. We had people call us at American Home Shield (home warranty) who would want us to call an emergency mechanic to check out their garage door opener. Since it can be opened manually, we never put out an emergency call on anything like that (except once when the homeowner was 9 months pregnant and didn't want to jump on her car to pull the cord).

We've already started getting some of the "ice storm" stuff...its going to be crazy this weekend. I hope everything warms up enough for you to get off safely and get into San Antonio for your conference
