Well, it all started this morning, as mornings are wont to start when the sun rises. Ok, technically I was up and showered BEFORE the sun rose, but that's ok. The story starts better this way. Anyway, I was up and showered and all set for school when I noticed the little red blinking light on my phone receiver.
Lo, is that a blinking light I see before me? A message in the early morning dawn?
It was in fact. A message waiting for me, I mean. A friend was calling to let me know that the county was on a two-hour delay schedule. REALLY? It was bright and sunny out; looked just fine from the window. I ran to the television. Sure enough - it was not a hoax - we were on a two-hour delay. Yippee!
"But why?" you might ask. "You just said it looked good." Yes, I did, didn't I? It did look good, but we had had a storm the night before and, apparently, there was lots of black ice on the road. Good enough for me.
I went back to bed for a couple hours. Ahhh.
