I overslept this morning. I left the house at around 10:15, and that's about the time when it started snowing. I put the car in 4WD thinking that would save the day. I was careful on the roads, so it took me twice as long to get the my site.
I was 5 minutes away from Gene's and the road split from one lane to three and I couldn't see the lines on the road anymore. I ended up getting in the turn lane on the wrong side of the road. When I tried to get back to the other lane, I slid. It was a frightening moment in my life. My first time sliding on the road in this weather.
And to make it scarier, there was a red light and a car a foot in front of me. Luckily, there wasn't anyone in the right lane or I probably would've hit them. I felt helpless. I wasn't in control and it scared me.
I got to Gene's and he told me that my mom had called and was worried about me because I wasn't there yet. I called her and told her that I was ok and she told me to leave early. Jen told me that I should have just left as soon as I got there which I didn't.
I should have just stayed home. Now, the weather is worse and it's not going to stop snowing anytime soon. I wonder if there is a snow day at school...
In Pudding House news:
We've narrowed down my pictures from 40 to 30, and down to 20. We put them in an order that fit and we named them. Now, we need to figure out the sizes. We're going to cut our own mattes to save money.
I don't know what I'm going to do for my fourth quarter walkabout. I might ask to stay at the Pudding House. I've been here since October and I really don't want to leave. I haven't put much thought into what I could do next quarter and now I really feel that it's too late.
I don't want to go back out there. The roads are terrible and it will take me an hour to get home. I'll have to tip toe around every little nick and cranny on the road and there are some crazy people out there and that makes it scarier.
Gene's show opening has been canceled. So...don't go. It sucks. DAMN YOU, EVIL SNOW!!!
