It has snowed before (just after Thanksgiving and during Halloween) but it hasn't stormed. Last night and this morning it stormed. So with 6 inches of snow on the ground and no plow, I had to drive to work at 5AM.
Anyway, to get to the point of it all, when I arrived at work[1] I was handed the shovel. Four hours of it really makes you sore. Then when I get home after doing errands in the city after work, I get handed the shovel again.
So how does the Escapist get through shovelling? I get so bored I tend to daydream in an effort to forget how miserable I am. It is not my favourite winter activity if you can tell. :P
Anyway, time to wind down with some hot chocolate and some internet. Cheers.
