Ya we were planning on going.. booooo!!

But I'm glad we decided not to.. the 400 is closed in both directions because there were over 100 collisions due to ice and blowing snow..

I don't think so.. ya I'm sure it it would have been one of the best days ever, but I'm not into my car being "rear ended a couple of times".. especially since it's less than a week old.

yeah amazing fresh pow or not, i'd rather not deal with crappy drivers and crappy road conditions, especially not to that extreme. my car's already a POS, i don't need collisions adding to it!!!! hah! plus i'm not sure if my insurance is actually valid now that i'm living here instead of BC, so i'd pay out of my ass if anything went wrong.

 

... i should probably look into fixing that...

on my way to hell in a handbasket, who wants a ride?

oh i have insurance, i'm covered till may... but it's with a BC insurance company. as long as i'm here on 'holiday' it's all fine and dandy.
 
i could skip work if i really wanted... but i like my job. strangely enough. plus i don't get paid if i don't go...

a buddy of mine at work just happened to be up near collingwood visiting family on saturday and decided to stay the night. He said it was definitely the most epic day he's ever had in ontario... and the line were almost none.
 
on a side note is anyone heading up thursday??

in the same boat as many of you, i actually like my job...and i havent been here that  long to deserve vacation days on a whim.
