3. We've been getting it all night
here in OK and it's still going on. Driving ice storm with thunder and horrendous wind. Roads are completely ice covered. We live in a rural area that's never seen a snow plow...ever. Staying home today here, too. Maybe tomorrow, too, if we end up with the 5-9 inches of snow on top of it they are predicting.

4. Coming down good in Plano right now, East Plano...
I live 2.2 miles from the office though :) They just announced the building will be "closed" at noon. I guess that's why I have high speed Internet and a laptop :)

5. Drive carefully.
I guess all of those reports on WFAA last night weren't so hysterical, after all.

7. You better make a few brownies for me or else!
Darnit! I decided to go in this morning and now it looks like it's only going to get worse as the day progresses.

You better make a few brownies for me or else!

8. I'm in N. Illinois
and I've already told my boss that I'm taking tomorrow off. The storm that sleeted on you is coming our way, and we're supposed to get 6 to 12 inches of snow by morning.
