FREE DAY OFF!! Thank you, THUNDERSNOW!
:woohoo:

I was hoping to think up a way to leave work early. Turns out I didn't have to because my boss called me up and told me to go home! (Unprecedented!!)

But I still have that second job to go to at night.

Except I don't, because as I was leaving the one job, the other boss calls up and says they're closing early so I don't have to go there either!

:woohoo:

Now, after trudging home through the snowy slush, (which really wasn't that bad of a walk--I didn't even fall down like I thought I would.), I'm back in my jammies, drinking coffee, and screwing around doing nothing.

Hooray for you, THUNDERSNOW!! Hooray!

10. Once I move, I am SO getting a sled for days like this...
(We'll be living just south of Humboldt Park.)

17. It's cute over there. And there's a decent hill to sled down too.
Congrats on the new place, too.

7. Sorta. My baby's got the day off too so we're eating breakfast and
watching movies in our jammies now.

But I'll be around once we've annoyed each other and need a break. :D

12. Yay! I just got home too...
They closed the daycare and I had to come pick up my daughter. Have to go back out at 3:15 and pick up the son next.

But I get to work from home...

19. Work from home? Nuts to that! They shouldn't make you work at all on
The Great THUNDERSNOW Day of '06.

:P

I'm glad you got to be at home (for the most part), though. It's almost always better than being at work.

13. Free fourth day off. Thank you flu.
But today I actually feel human again, so now it's more like playing hookie.

Enjoy your holiday!

18. It's kickass. The boy and I just wasted the day drinking beer and watching
our tape of The Office.

We'll devote the next round to the ThunderSnow-less. :toast:
