Sleep is delicious

So today I rolled out of bed at my normal 7:15 and looked out the window. The sky was this kind of dull orange-brown-gray, and it was snowing pretty heavily. (I mean it, even; these were big fat flakes coming down at a healthy clip.) THUS, VERY HOPEFUL, I called my office's snow closure line ... and the automated voice said the office was still open. Bawwwwwwww. :'( But I take public transit and I live in a fairly clear/open area (seriously, it takes forever before they'll close anything around the school down), so I bundled up and trudged to my bus stop.

And I waited.

And I waited.

And at abouuuuut 8:10, rivendellrose shows up at the bus stop AND I AM STILL THERE. My bus is supposed to come around 7:48, and yet I am still there, hunkered like some fat unusual bird, and watching as the snow has entirely covered my previous footsteps. The one bus that's been by says that a lot of buses were caught up on Olive, which is downtownish.

So we wait.

And we wait.

And finally, at 8:48, an hour after my bus SHOULD have arrived and fifteen minutes after my shift is supposed to start, we call our manager.

"Oh," he says, "I tried to call you guys before. They decided to close the office after all."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So we went our separate ways back to our apartments (I dropped by the grocery store to get food and juice uhuhuhu pineapple orange) and then I took out the trash and I WENT BACK TO SLEEP.

Now I'm going to make lunch and it is still snowing. I've FINISHED MY YULETIDE FIC \o/ and life is warm, which is about as awesome as "good."
