It snowed even more overnight

Today was supposed to be my last day of work, but since cars and buses like these keep getting stuck...



I really didn't think I was going to be able to drive my car (if I could even get it dug out from under a foot of snow). So I called in to see if the store was even open. My (now former!) manager, ever the inconsiderate jerk, started spouting off orders:
"The district manager says everyone has to have chains on their tires or use public transit to get to work; weather is not an excuse. So you'll need to get some chains before the next time you work."
"Um... you said today was going to be my last day."
"Oh."

Snowed In

My car and apartment buried.

They don't salt the roads here.

Looking down from the pedestrian bridge near my house.

Evidence of iced-over entertainment on the parking lot across from my house.

It's been snowing all week

And I don't feel like leaving my apartment. Expect your Christmas present from me to be late.

Still snowing

Driving to work in this week's second snow storm. When I got there, I was told I wouldn't be working there anymore after Monday due to the global economic collapse.

Still Cold and Snowy

I haven't seen alot of salt on the roads, but I have seen lots of cars sliding around.

That's funny... they told me it doesn't snow here

It's snowing in my backyard

A snowy night in Richmond

It was snowy but that didn't stop me from driving into the city where I was introduced to fried cheese at The Village.

Charlottesville -> Chapel Hill -> Richmond

It snowed overnight while I was sleeping at the Tea Bazaar in Charlottesville...

...So I had to drive to Chapel Hill at 45 miles per hour. I hit some ice at one point and almost slid into the guard rail. But I ended up getting there safely.

Skylight Exchange is looking more like a junk store than I remember.

While driving I had fantasies of doing more long-term touring, but playing to empty rooms two nights in a row put an end to that kind of thinking.

After playing in Chapel Hill, I drove to Richmond and got a late night snack with Anne at 3rd Street Diner. We've known each other for 20 years.

The entire state is basically shut down.
