Well, another wintry commute is behind me. About -5deg C (yesterday was about +5deg) and plenty of slush and snow on the ground. Yummers!

Morning tithe. I don't wanna jinx it but so far it seems that sanity has been restored to the workplace. I even have time to take a cig break. [:D]

-10F this morning ambient with windchill ~-25F. Packed snow on the streets plus idiots that don't know how to drive in it made for a 1.5 hour inbound commute. Can't wait to see what fun awaits this evening on the way home! [:@]ORIGINAL: Terminus
