Rain, ice, snow

Mother nature, cunt that she is, has decided to cover the greater Pittsburgh area with a sheet of ice. This was supposed to happen last night, which would have given me a suitable excuse for calling off from work ("it's too icy to walk up the hill to get to the trolley station - I've nearly broken my neck five times - I give up!"). However, the bulk of the nasty weather happened while I was at work today. So, it looks like tomorrow is going to be the slippery one. Let's hope that the city has pulled out the rock salt and friction has returned to the roads by Saturday night at the latest.
