Snow days. I used to live for them in school and I was a little excited to hear we got to leave early from work last night. However, I have been in the house now for over 24 hours straight and I may lose my mind. Snow days were fun because you got to at least go out and see friends or family. The latest snow days are horrible because I am literally stuck inside my house.
The drifts are up to my waist, the driveway is just as bad. There is no sign of a plow and I ate my last hot pocket an hour ago. This morning I was optimistic about being able to drive. It appeared that the streets in my neighborhood had been plowed enough to drive on, but my driveway was a completely different story. Right in front of my garage door was 8 inches high and it only got higher as you went down the driveway because its a hill. That didn't bother me though because all I cared about was getting to work on time. So I warmed up my car and planned my attack inside. After running through a couple of ideas in my head I finally decided that my best plan would be to throw my car into reverse and hit ramming speed. Bad idea. I made it about half way down the driveway and got stuck - hmm how did I not see that coming?
So I dug myself out enough to come back into the garage and admitted defeat. I worked from home, at least what I could do, and watched movies all day. Normally I would call this a perfect day, but knowing that I cant leave when I want is whats driving me nuts.
Ive updated my Itunes, I paid my bills, I caught up on all the news and I watched all my Netflix. I surrender snow. Please go away so I can have human interaction.
What are YOU doing to beat cabin fever?
