wisconsin weather
i'm now the proud owner of no vehicle. i (more than likely) totaled it on the way home today...
starting at noon, i tried to get my boss to let me leave early. he seemed to think it was some sort of principal that we should all stay it out. well, finally at 4:30, the big kahunas gave everyone the go ahead to leave. so i did.
so did another co-worker, who is from oklahoma, and admittedly has a hard time driving in these conditions. well, she managed to go sideways and end up straight in front of me as my car came to a halt; the front end under hers.
i put it in park, but the car kept moving... the hood was all crumpled up. my radiator was leaking all over the ground, my left headlight was pointing at the sky, and i was freezing.
so, now i have to get a new car.
and i am currently blaming my boss for not letting me leave early.

OMG!!!! But you're both okay? I was supposed to have a meeting over by you this afternoon, but luckily, good sense prevailed and it was postponed.
I hope your boss is adequately sheepish. They were closing schools, fer crissakes already.

Hope you are not sore today, as in muscle-aches ;-) One good thing about looking at cars in this weather, the salesmen will probably let you drive around the lot with out them bothering you until you are ready.

That suxx0rz. If I had been you boss, I would have said "You gotta do what you gotta do." Am I wrong?
