Why am I not at work today?
 
Because it is so freaking cold here that they cancelled school in the entire state! So now I have a four day weekend instead of a three day weekend! Being a teacher can have its perks :)

yeah, it's cold as anything here in boston as well - i know schools were closed here, not sure about colleges and that stuff.

all i know is i still have to work.

turned down legals clam chowder? you must really not like chowder, that stuff is good; not as good as Turner Fisheries, but pretty good.

luckily everything at the hospital is enclosed - if i get something from the cafeteria or one of the sandwich shops, i don't have to go outside (although the areas near the doorways are still pretty cold).

my school district closed today AND yesterday, so a 5 day weekend for me!

Geez, why can't it get that cold in Texas??? Even when it snows- the whole one time a year that actually happens- I STILL have to go to work. Like who is dumb enough to drive in the ice to go eat mexican food. REALLY. Can't wait til I am in the corporate office.

Are you a Democrat? If so then you are probably alergic to work.

must politics be brought into every f'ing thread?

We had yesterday off as a snow day, but alas today was professional development so we all had to come in. It COULD have been a five day weekend...

I'm jealous :p

I telecommuted yesterday, but today I went in. My commute is pretty much all highway driving, so most of it isn't too bad (except for the tailgaters :rolleyes: ). Unfortunately my town's snow removal plan consists of waiting until April, so the local streets are still a mess.

Monday is a regular work day for me, so I don't even get a three-day weekend! :(

I wasn't at work on Friday because I went to see the kickoff of the LINKIN PARK Metorea Tour! :D

Hahaha I am jealous for the cancellation, but DEFINATELY not for the coldness. I enjoy our Iowan *warm* weather, thank you very much. It is like, 35 outside. Boy, I can just wear t-shirts and shorts!

ps. keep it warm, all northeastern people!
