Snow snow snow snow! Fucking snow!
I made the mistake of accepting a night shift at Sileby last night....As fine a shift as it was, I was watching the snow fall all night (from about 10) and it did not let up...so when I looked out and saw that there was about 4 inches of snow on my roof...I nearly cried! Ok, it wasn't frozen, it was just snow, and I cleared the car in about 5 minutes. But I left work at 7.45 this morning...And I got home at 11.15....Ok, not as bad as when there was a suicide and I was in traffic for 6 hours, but still, I was tired!
So anyone who says "oh yay, snow!" needs a slap. Severely.
If it is this bad over the xmas weekend, there is no way I'm going to work...I am NOT being stuck in Quorn all day, and I am NOT being stuck on the road for 3 hours.
I was so proud of myself though! I didn't lose control of my car at all! I decided to drive down Melbourne Ave after all, even though grandma advised against it...I didn't fancy sitting for another couple of hours in a line of traffic, truth be told. I passed a few cars going down the hill, and they were skidding everywhere...but I just drove perfectly!
Best of all though, a big pick up type (like my mother had last xmas) was struggling to get up Highlands Drive (Where I live!), and could see I was getting impatient behind him (I was very nearly home, after all!) so stopped and waited for me to go past...I just experted rolled past and shot up the road...Never been so proud of my car!
So, finally getting home after 2 1/2 hours of driving, I curled up in bed...and dropped straight off! Never been happier to have my electric blanket on!
That's all from me I think...Au reviour!
