Snowpocalypse

I feel I must address the fact that the end of the world is apparently going to be upon the Northeast tomorrow and Saturday. They are throwing around things like- "blizzard", "major storm", "ohmygodstayofftheroads", etc etc.

Um, also, since when did they start naming the snowstorms?? And NEMO? Why would you name a nasty winter storm after a cute little fishie?

Can I also mention that my entire state is covered by that lovely dark purple color with the word "BLIZZARD" in caps...

I asked my father last night if he was sure he didn't want to replace the broken snowblower before tomorrow. He told me he didn't need to, he had 4 snowblowers living in the house- my mother, himself, my 25 year old brother, and myself. 

It should be fun, really. 

I also went to the grocery store today because I actually was having a craving for bananas and spinach (not together of course). There were lines and the parking lot was packed at 1:30pm. I get it. It's going to snow. A lot. And it will be cold and some might lose power, but...I mean, do you really need to buy 2lbs of ham, the entire meat section, and 5 loaves of bread. 

With all of that being said, I will most likely still have to go to work in the morning and might find myself driving home in blizzard conditions. I will probably take my father's GMC pickup truck. 

To all my Northeast/New Englander friends- be safe and have some damn fun with the snow. Just try not to get frostbite and don't eat the yellow snow...
