    It's starting to melt off my roof here. I'm sure it's all going to freeze one more time tonight.

    It is nice to watch the news and not have all the shootings and murders.

    Good luck, but I doubt you'll make it, dress warm and take some bottled water and some jerky.

    6 hour round trip to be there for 7 hours?
    I doubt you can make even that much. No one is going out tomorrow, with all the melting and re-freezing its probably going to be worse tomorrow. We need that Texas sun to come out for a few hours to melt this ice away.

    I absolutely had to run to the convenience store for a couple of things. It took me nearly 20 minutes to go one mile. And work is wanting me to come open the store to make maybe $200 in sales over the course of 7 hours? Not. fucking. happening.

    Yup, four cars and only the Fusion has FWD, so it was sweet that we could rely on that car to get us around or else we would be stuck like chuck. Not that we needed to go out, we stocked up on food and shit.

    My buddy Nick had one, he loved that car. I almost bought one too, but I bought that MKZ instead. He had a bright red one with the oyster (white-ish) interior. Some dizzy bitch ran a light at Plano pkw & Preston and totaled it out.

    Yup, its bad up here in Collin County too, only one road (rut) in the middle of the streets that are passable. All the small bridges up here are frozen solid. I guess they are only sanding the major hwys and bridges. I've had to take my boy to work in the Fusion the last three days. 45 mins each way and its usually only a 20 minute drive.

    Wondering if I should call non-emergency and have them tell the neighbor to go fuck themselves. I've been driving in this shit all day and it's not bad at all on i35/121/161


    I would call on them. What a fucking idiot.
