And since it's old as hell, it barely defrosts. What I'm trying to say is I was 15 minutes late for work because it took me half an hour to scrape ice off my windshield and drivers/shotgun side windows.

Holy crap! Are you a dairy farmer or something?

Nah, I'm working on the planogram team at the store I work at this week and the hours are from 4 am to noon. Next week I get to go back to working sales floor though.

Planogram, that's cool stuff. I'm sure a lot of vendors are bugging you to get their stuff at eye level and front of the store

Yeah were getting just killed with snow today. It took me an hour and forty minutes to get to work today, and another hour and ten to get home (about a 20 minute commute) ... just terrible. I cannot wait for the summer.

This morning there was frost on THE INSIDE of my windshield when I got in my car. And I don't mean it was a little foggy, I mean honest to God real frost.

It doesn't help that my heat doesn't work, so I had to attempt to get rid of said internal frost by blasting cold air from the defroster. It eventually melted off.

And yes, it's been brutal driving around with no heat this winter.

What's a planogram team?

OMG you guys are so cute! I love you southern folk and your snow storm stories. It's only the end of January and already we have 115 inches of snow here in Syracuse NY. I'm not the nutball who is at all proud that we get this snow, this is just the hell whole I choose to live in.

I have lived in NE and experienced tons of snow as well. It is worst here (DC Area). It is just not the amount of snow but more the amount of people trying to get around in the snow. See DC is a cluster f--k already to start with then you throw in a couple inches of snow and it all goes to hell.

See when I lived in Portsmouth NH we could get 100 inches of snow and it was not a problem becuse what where the chances I was going to bump into one of the other four people that lived there.

Please remeber also up north the snow plow to person ratio is like 1 to 1, we don't have that type of equipment here.

I am not leashing out at you so much as the "tough guy" northern that thinks they have it so tough because of all their snow. Come live down here year round in the middle of the rat race you won't have time to think about the weather, trust me.

One of the few good things about Georgia is not having to deal with Chicago winters anymore. Baltimore winters were a little more tolerable but they were still cold for a good amount of the time. Meanwhile we got people down here wearing shorts over the course of the past week though it's about to start getting cold again.

When I first got married we rented an old farm house that was over looking the Nansmond River and had hugh lake in the front yard. This house was the party house until we got a few wenter heating bills. They averaged around $400 and we had one a little over $600 and don't think that house had a lick of insulation.
