Another one bites the dust....

on Monday, February 9, 2009


Wow, what a morning. It's only 8:51 AM and I have been through a lot. I have class at 9am, which I won't be attending because of the road conditions up here in GF. We had freezing rain all of last night and this morning it's not a pretty picture. I stepped out of my door at 8:35 as usual to begin my 10 minute walk to campus. However, the freezing rain got the best of me this morning. I kid you not when I say that there was not one piece of traction anywhere on the sidewalk. So I basically was sliding down the sidewalk when I came to the end of the apartment complex where I live. I figured that maybe the street was better than the sidewalk so I took a step between two parked cars, and found myself lying on my back. The worst part was trying to stand back up. It took me about five minutes just to get back to my feet and "walking" back to my apartment. I've surrendered the 9am class, now we'll see what can be done for the rest.

I hear you JT. We have icy walk ways and not once but twice I almost ate some curb walking to my 9:00 class. Its a good thing no one was there to see me... I think.

You should check if you have any video survellience cameras. We've got some interesting footage of spills in our parking lot at work
