JHTC! My wife got out of bed this morning before I did, and when she saw all the snow on the ground, she actually screamed. Loudly, at that. "How bad could it be?" My answer: "****!!!" I didn't bother shaving, and instead jumped in the shower, then dressed and switched wheelsets from slicks to studs. We got away from the house at the usual time and I only lost a couple of minutes on the way in. I would have been faster, but the snow covered my glasses entirely in the first two blocks. After that, I just sort of squinted. The big immobile shapes were parked cars, and the big mobile shapes were moving cars. The really big immobile shapes were houses - I think.

I'm going to head home soon, and after not snowing for a while after noon, the heavens have opened up again. Not the giant flakes of this morning, but it is horizontal.

No, I'm wrong, it's barfing snow again. ****ing Calgary...
