Blind

The most appropriate song for this post would probably be 'Stupid Girl', and yes, that stupid girl would be me. However, since I want to share GOOD music I chose a song from the cd that was playing in my car during the following events. If you would like to hear 'Blind' by Third Day, please download it here.

11:28 AM - Emailing Brianna and thinking how good a vegetarian burrito from Qdoba sounds
11:29 AM - Look out the window, see the snow falling like crazy
11:31 AM - Decide that a vegetarian burrito is more important than the fact that I may be a little cold walking out to the car. Decide I will leave at noon.
12:02 PM - Put on rain jacket (because this stupid girl brought a light rain jacket to work because it was RAINING and 40-something degrees outside when she left her apartment)
12:03 PM - Glance at weather icon: "Heavy Snow, 27 degrees"
12:04 PM - "I can handle it!"
12:06 PM - Walk out door. Notice that the snow is blowing completely sideways and the wind is kinda pushing me towards my right.
12:07 PM - Must turn left to get to where car is parked, do so, and contemplate running back into the office.
12:09 PM - Try and unlock car door. Door is iced over and does not want to open. Yank door open and jump in the car.
12:10 PM - Oh good, the windshield wipers cleaned off the front window just fine. The back window, not so much. Realize that exiting the car to scrape back window is a necessity.
12:11 PM - ICE, not snow, ICE is covering the back window. Scrape off the half behind the driver's seat and decide that will be sufficient.
12:15 PM - Back out of parking spot and proceed to leave the Bureau.
12:17 PM - Try and look in side view mirror to change lanes. Notice side view mirrors have approximately 1/2 inch layer of ice on them. Don't change lanes.
12:18 PM - Observe that the windshield wipers have about 2 inches of ice/snow stuck to them. Turn them on the highest setting in an attempt to fling said ice/snow at other cars. Does not work.
12:25 PM - By a miracle of God, arrive at Qdoba safely.
12:30- 12:55 PM - Sit inside Qdoba blissfully eating my vegetarian burrito and reading my book.
12:56 PM - Exit Qdoba and see that the sideways snow has ceased, the wind has died down, and the ice is now easily scrapable off the side view mirrors.
1:10 PM - Return to the bureau and decide it would be best to park in the garage.

Moral of the story: Qdoba makes everything better.
