Ever take a workaholic, lock them in a house by dumping snow and ice all over a city that can't cope with it, shut down almost all interstates, and then say, "You're stuck until Saturday."?

Let me tell you.

It isn't pretty.

I understand The Shining so much better now.

Oh. My. God. People.

Time to get some writing done?

Good luck getting through the Great Freeze. Is it really supposed to stick around all week?

I'm used to Austin, where we'll get socked in by ice, but it will be 70 degrees the next day.

Been there. My Mother never dealt well with being snowed in at all. What was worse was that she still smoked, and ran out of cigarettes.

It got so bad that I actually volunteered to walk the mile to the store and back though snow drifts even a Yeti would avoid just to get her a pack of cigarettes. I figured that the risk of hypothermia was slightly less than the risk of mass homicide that the nicotine withdrawals would cause.

I ended up with pneumonia, but I still say it was worth it.

Stay warm and (try to) stay sane!
