I'M ALREADY BEHIND!!

For some reason I completely forgot to blog yesterday. I guess it was hangover from Food Stamp day on Monday.
It occurred to me today that people are completely freakin' crazy with the way they react over snow. Yeah, we MIGHT get a COUPLE of inches of snow tonight and tomorrow. Big damn deal! It's not like we're gonna be snowed in until spring or some crap like that. Two inches of snow isn't even the length of your index finger, it's not going to paralyze the world.
Here's how bad it is. Here in Butler County they've already put some brine on the roads to handle any nasty stuff tomorrow. So I get behind a woman in a red Kia who was already in full blown, snow and ice panic mode. She was driving 30 mph, and straddling the yellow line. When she met another car she wouldn't even move over more than a foot, but she would slow almost to a stop to let the other guy crowd the shoulder and pass. I had to follow her all the way to the grocery, and some guy there called her out about her driving. He asked her if she realized she couldn't drive in the middle of the road. She got all pissy and informed him that when the weather is bad she drives in the middle of the road so she won't slide off into the ditch.
As she was saying this it was 33 degrees and sunny. It was actually a bluebird beautiful winter day.
So what would this chic do if it really did snow tonight? I was in Lexington in 1989 and it was 55 degrees on March 30th, turned cold and started raining at midnight, and by April 1st we had three inches of ice with 20 inches of snow on top of it. That was bad weather, but it didn't cripple town or anything. UK didn't even cancel classes.
NOTE: In my five years at UK they never canceled classes for snow. We had 9 inches during finals week and they couldn't even close the dorms for Christmas break, but they didn't cancel classes. A buddy of mine said they canceled them for two days due to the ice storm last winter, but only because there was no power.
I can't wait until Thursday. People will go apeshit if there's the least little snow on the ground. I love to go visit people when it snows. They're either shocked I'm out or want to load up and go ride around with me. I have a 19-yr-old two-wheel drive auto as well. People around here with damn Hummers won't get out on snow but me and the White Trash Chariot of Death just keep going.
