I am sitting on my couch right now and my hair is the frizziest that I have ever seen it-seriously. Now let me bring you on the journey of how I ended up in this state.
As all of you know we had quite the snow storm today. Now, this morning it looked like it was going to be pretty bad, but by noon it appeared that the worst was over. I actually went out at about 12:30 and cleaned off my car and left for lunch. Well...as I pulled into the parking lot at about 1:30 the snow started to fall again! Now...for the next hour and a half it snowed like a bat out of hell. We were actually let out of work at 3 because of this freak snow thunder storm. There was one blast of thunder that actually shook the entire building. I thought it was the end of the world...but...it wasn't, so I will continue with my story.
So, I ran out of the building at 3 thinking that I would be able to jump into my car and slowly drive home. BOY was I mistaken. I cleaned off my car and proceeded to get completely STUCK in the middle of the parking lot. GREAT...so, I pull out my shovel (which my dad MADE me put in my car, I suppose for situations such as this) and attempted to dig my way out of the snow. Well...I did that and I still could not move. Then this girl comes over to me and asks to borrow my shovel. I was like, "why the hell not, not like it is helping me"..Well..that is what I wanted to say. She was nice enough to attempt to help me dig my car out, but it was no help, I was stuck.
I decided to sit in my car and warm up for a few minutes and contemplate this situation. I also took a look in the mirror and realized that I looked like a drowned rat that had been left in the snow for a week. I then made a few calls on my phone and then got out of my car. This big dude that was cleaning off his car for the past 25 minutes decides to walk over and ask, "what seems to be the problem?" I think I looked at him like he had 4 heads and said, "I AM STUCK"-moron. Well...he attempted to get me out of this pickle as well. ALAS, I was out...I was moving...I was stuck! I was now in the line of cars that just got unstuck and that are now stuck behind a car that is stuck trying to get out of the parking lot.
Finally made it out of the parking lot and was on my way. I attempted to get up the large hill that leads out of my work...got stuck...did a three point turn....attempted to go the other way on the street...made it up that hill...and slowly road home. I was on the phone with my sister most of the way as well for moral support....it was definitely needed during that 3 point turn.
It was quite a scenic 1.5 hour ride home for 3 miles. There were many cars on the side of the road, at least 10 sideways cars and I totally missed a turn as a skidded past it. Luckily no one else was on the road at that point....and finally i made it onto my street. Now, I could see the snow in the driveway and I knew this would be a problem...so I went as fast I could and crashed that fucker right into the driveway..I was HOME!
I walked into the house. Now, picture yourself dressed in work clothes, hat, coat and mittens. OK, now picture yourself jumping into the ocean in 30 degree weather and walking into my house-ya, that is what my cat saw walking towards him. Needless to say..he ran and hid..lol.....
Because I was already soaked and wet, I decided to head out and shovel the driveway. Now, I did the end of the driveway and enough for my car to fit....and then the plow went by......fuck that. I am now inside, in my pjs, hair as frizzy as hell and ready to watch some chick flicks. If this is any indication of how the winter is going to go this winter..I am going to invest in a 4 wheel drive vehicle, a heated driveway and some hard core anti-frizz cream ;)~

yo, ill give you 500 bucks for your jetta, which I suspect is more than fair market value for those puppies, and you can use that to fuel your new 4 wheel drive clunker for a month or two :-P hahaha
