Random Thought for Thursday 1/12/12

Well ... they don't have this where I just came from. Welcome back to Chicago and up to eight inches of snow, with a few more expected over night.

Although I mistakenly thought that the fact that there were cop cars every mile or so keeping me from speeding home from Midway last night (all along I-55 and LakeShoreDrive) was all about blizzard preparation (turns out that Obama was in town last night shortly before I was on that road), it's still kind of nice to see winter finally arrive in the way of some quality white stuff.

Now sadly, with my remote workplace, there will be no snow day tomorrow. You can't have it all, I guess ...
