Today I learned something very important about work. Don't leave an hour early on a snow day. Everybody else has the same idea, and for some reason, nobody can seem to leave the office complex. It took me nearly 2 hours to get out of the complex. And when I got to the entrance I wasn't even really sure why I waited so long! There were a bunch of cars and trucks trying to get up the driveway (which has a decent incline) and getting stuck. They're not allowed to use salt on the roads around us, as we're right next to a huge resevoir. I even saw a FedEx truck give up and turn around. So much for guaranteed delivery.

Once I got out of the complex it was clear driving. Luckily I had the subaru so I could drive my normal backroads home. I never slipped or skidded at all. Of course, I was driving very carefully. You know how those pregnant wives freak out when they find out you've been speeding in the snow! (PS, I wasn't. Really.)
