Unless you've been completely disconnected this past week, you know that the east coast just got hit with Winter Storm Jonas, also called #Snowpocalypse and #Snowzilla on Twitter. While most people were excited to finally see some winter weather, I was ready to hunker down inside for the long haul. Wheelchairs and snow aren't exactly the best combination. Thankfully, I made it through unscathed, with not so much as a power outage. However, the past 36 hours were still pretty crazy. Here are some of the thoughts that were going through my head:
1. "It has begun."
2. "I hope I got enough food; at least I have pizza."
3. "Oh, it's actually kind of pretty! My backyard looks like a Christmas card."
4. *A few hours later* "Not pretty anymore! It's too much and we're going to die."
5. *Sees pictures of people playing in snow on Facebook* "That looks like so much fun! I want to have a snowball fight!"
6. *Goes outside for 30 seconds* "Nope, nope, nope, I was wrong. Outside is bad."
7. "You know, now would be a good time to get ahead on some of the reading for my classes."
8. *Goes on internet* "Oh, look, Chelsea Handler has a new Netflix series!"
9. "Oh, what the hell; it's not like we're going to school on Monday anyway." *Watches "Chelsea Does" for four hours*
10. "All I can see out my window is a big, white wall."
11. "I wonder if I could strap a shovel to my wheelchair and become a plow."
12. "I don't think I'll be able to leave my house for a while."
13. "Did the lights just flicker? Electricity, please don't fail me now!"
14. "I don't think my wheels can go through all that white stuff."
15. "Well, at least school is cancelled tomorrow, so I don't have to worry about it just yet."
I hope that everyone is staying warm and having a good time! Enjoy the days off while they last!
