Ice Storm 2005, kind of

It was more like frozen drizzle but it still yields the same result in Central Texas, frozen roads and bridges followed by people wrecking their cars everywhere.

It’s also a chance to rejoice and get the rare Snow Day! No luck today with my employer (Apple). The university closed, Travis County closed, Williamson County closed and so did all the major school discricts in the area. We Apple grunts on the phone received a delayed opening of 10 am despite the dozen or more pile-ups.

Oh well, a shorter work day with full pay is always better than nothing. Sadly, Somara will have no such luck with her gig at HEB. Employees have to show up so people can rush in and start gobbling up toilet paper even though the ice will be gone by tomorrow. I think it’s looking up for the weekend.
