Everyone in Evansville, Indiana is preparing for the end of the world today. Grocery stores have been raided with bottled water, canned goods and batteries taken by the cart load as the desperate citizens of this town prepare 3-5 inches of snow....or as I am now calling it...(cue cheesy voice effects)....
"SNOW-PACALYPSE 2010"
Schools will be shut down; car drivers will drive more idiotic than they already do; stores that stay open will fight off the hordes of zombies looking for fresh brains...wait, wrong story. Evansville will become a disaster area because of some white stuff that falls ont he ground.
I'm a little unsympathetic because 3-5 inches of snow in my home state of Wisconsin barely brings out the sledders. A couple of years ago, an inch of snow cancelled school for the day...while my peeps in Wisconsin were laughing because they woke up a half an hour early to brush off the foot of snow from the cars.
The work place (Lyrecrest) has decided to delay our arrival time by two hours just in case. To be honest, I don't really mind because I get to sleep in. But honestly, it will be nice to be off the road during rush hour when the majority of the idiots are driving. No...I'm not riding my bike. It's past my tolerance level.
I'm going to enjoy to the snow and hope that enough falls that Leandra and I can go sledding down the street with the kids in the neighborhood. It's been so damn cold that I feel we deserve some snow.
And when I'm not having fun, I'll be on watch with my torch, spear and crossbow (and maybe some facepaint) fending off any frenzied scavengers trying to take my can of green beans.

We're expecting a bit of snow here (possibly a foot in some area's by tomorrow morn - woo). Kenosha has closed schools today. There's only about 3 inches down right now (8:30am). Truth be told even some areas of your home state are treating snow in a ridiculously SNOW-PACALYPSE manor. Adam, in all his drunken stable walking, and I will trudge out to the Y and then an Admirals game tonight at the height of the LAKE EFFECT. Good Times. I'll still take snow over the cold!
