Ha ha ha!
Very true. Sometimes I do feel like Viktor "The Goat" Navorski. One these days I'm going to make photocopies of my hand and tape them up all over the Terminal!

Looks like California's winter weather is about to hit too - the forecast at last calls for rain after the weekend! I know I know, it isn't snow... but still....

Well, I never made it to work today. I left my house early in fact, just after it started to snow. But it was coming down too fast. The roads quickly filled up as every company let their employees out early and soon the highways were a mess. Just as I got on the Highway traffic came to a stop. The radio traffic report said the highway was closed due to a major accident and it would be closed for a while. They also mentioned that 60-70 flights at my airport were cancelled.
So my next call was to work. I told them I was stuck in traffic. They said, "no problem take your time coming in and drive safe." I then asked if they were letting people go home early because of the cancellations and bad driving conditions. Sure enough they were. So I asked what the point was of me spending hours trying to get there. The reply was:"turn back and go home" . LOL
Easier said than done, but I eventually was able to get to an exit and take the side streets home. It's been snowing about 1.5 - 2.0 inches an hour since it started. I wouldn't be surprized if we get a foot or more by later tonight.
And this isn't even the Nor Easter we are expecting Saturday Night!
Leslie! Get the shovels ready!

It started snowing here at about 2 in the afternoon. Light, fluffy snow which seems to be accumulating slowly. Still, it took me an hour to drive home (normally it takes 20 minutes) because the traffic was heavy and none of the streets have been plowed or sanded. My antilock brakes were clicking most every time I stopped.
We were supposed to go out for an event at Hannah's school but as you can imagine, we've decided to stay home...
