SNOWWWSTOORRRMMMM!!!!!

So this past Sunday weather reports started warning Chicago about a “snowpocalypse” storm that was to hit us Tuesday night. As if we weren’t depressed enough that the Bears season was over, let alone that we were constantly listening to a bunch of cheeseheads rub in their victory, Mother Nature had to throw this drama in our face. So this “epic storm” the news reported, was to have 40 MPH winds and white out across the city. That storm, it’s here. The entire day at work people were running around making excuses on how they better run home in fear. Fear of what you ask? Well, frozen water of course and a little bit of wind. Oooo I’m shivering in my Uggs. I wanted to shake everyone, and remind them that they live in the Midwest. When exactly were they planning to realize that it snows here? I mean, did they have to slam themselves head first into a snow bank in order to figure out we are north of Cancun? All I have to say is that snow isn’t all that bad, so quit all the bitching. A lot of people got to leave work early, and another handful wont even have to make their morning commute tomorrow. Sit at home, watch some Style Police, and drink your weight in hot cocoa. Most of all, realize that there are far worse things happening in the world to worry your little minds about than some measly snowstorm.


PS. While my coworkers cowered in fear, all I could think about was a citywide snowball fight, and checking into “Snowpocalypse: Chicago 2011 on FourSquare!
