I’m working from home today. With the 90 closed it’ll take me forever to get to Batavia.

I got here early actually. The g/f got stuck in my driveway at motherfucking 6am. So I had to get up and help her out. After that, there was no point in going back to sleep so I got ready and came in.

Was up at 6am… blowing my driveway out for the 4th time since Friday Night… 2-3’ of snow at the end of the driveway due to the plows… If I didn’t blow it out, neither my Blazer nor my Fiance’s Focus would’ve made it out…

Took me about the “normal” to get here… but there’s NO ONE here… wonder if I can leave early then… 😉

lol I used to own one, but left it at my last apartment by accident and haven’t picked a new one up yet. :picard:

It doesn’t help that where my car is parked is next to a wide open area/field, so there’s approx 3-4 feet of drifts packed up against the passengers side

holy hell was the 219 so shitty last night! i had to drive from Akron to Ellicottville for giving lessons, then back home. man did townline suck dick!

then on the way home from holiday, the 219 was terrible! i had no cars to follow when the visibility got to pretty much 0. it got to the point where i could not see the road markers or tracks from the cars that previously went threw. half the time i felt i was driving on instinct, i literally had no clue weather i was going straight or swerving.

its one thing following a pack of cars, because if one car suddenly goes off the road, you know not to go that way. lol but shit! i had no clue where the fuck i was that entire time i was driving home. walden wasnt really to much better.

Steve has to be one of the worst prepared WNYers I know.

GTO with summer tires.  
No shovel.

Do you even own a winter coat or are you out there in shorts and a tshirt trying to get your GTO out of the 3 foot snow drift? :lol:
