LoL, I guess it would suck, luckily my car is tucked away at a shop.

But the warm weather before this has been chewing up a lot of the thread on guys who were still on their winters.

Nah... I wouldn't have.. it's just for acouple of days... though they're predicting like 4cm of snow tomorrow. Boo. I'll just be TTCing it for a couple days I suppose.

Not really sure when I'm off today... have acouple of meetings at the end of the day.. not really sure if those are ever going to end. I'll just get a coworker to drive me home. Thanks anyways
