I was prepared, but this winter was rough. I don't have to contend with what some other people here do, so I feel bad complaining, but I'm so done with winter. Luckily, (I guess not luckily, it's the main reason I live where I do) there's a free shuttle that takes me about 1 mile from my work so if I just don't want to deal with it I don't have to… I rode the shuttle a lot in the last month.
