We are naming BLIZZARDS now?!! Seriously?
Disgusted. Whateva.
I made sure to hit the store this morning to get all the things - milk, Ezekiel bread, fresh Kale, salad, Fage yogurt, frozen broccoli, eggs & chicken breast.
At lunch, I went to fill up my tank (I was riding dangerously close to E), and I couldn't believe there were lines. Very reminiscent of post-Sandy world here. Shudder.
I'm guessing people are taking this blizzard more seriously than they ever took Sandy. Good thing, I suppose.
As far as I'm concerned, Nemo can go fuck himself. The gall, naming this damn, highly inconvenient blizzard after a cute little fishy.
Hit the 6PM Bikram session after work. Since I'm hearing forecasts anywhere from 8 inches to 40 inches, it's looking like Saturday morning Bikram might be out. The studio may not even be open tomorrow. Everyone is pretty much playing it by ear. My neighbors to the North - New England - will get the worst of it. Sorry, Dani!
I was getting a headache towards the end of class. Thank goodness I had plenty of extra water, grilled chicken breast and a cheese stick as my recovery fuel.
Driving back home from the studio, the lines for gas were much worse. At least 7 or 8 cars deep, and that was just on the grounds of the gas stations. The lines were stretched onto the street - the whole scene was just un-freaking-real.
It would not surprise me one bit if the snack aisles in the stores were completely cleaned out because of Nemo like they were with Sandy. Not my problem. None of that stuff in my house.
I'm hoping they'll be plowing the streets Friday night into Saturday morning so that I can get to WI. Normally, that's what they do round these here parts. Anywho, I still have an entire day to go before that happens, so best not to obsess about it.
Ain't nobody got time for that!
I was in NYC once during a blizzard and I have to admit my sister stocked up on snacks for her apartment and I was powerless against them. Ok, I lie..I was complacent.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for prepping ahead and ridding the house of junk.
Stay safe and warm!
I hope this storm isn't quite as grim as they are predicting. Maybe this will be the last one this winter. I've been in the stockpiling mode when hurricanes were approaching in Florida. I usually bought tuna, peanut butter and canned soup which we could have heated up on our camp stove. I never needed the supplies so that was good.
ReplyDeleteSee... I don't get that either! I'm like, where's the apples? The lean turkey meat? I freak out wanting healthy stuff. LOL But I have noticed here that when bad weather is coming, snack foods and beer are wiped out. Screw that. If I am going to be stuck at home, a few snack things like baked cheese crackers for he kiddos is fine, but it HAS to be rounded out with the good stuff.
ReplyDeleteIt has already snowed an enormous amount and the only thing I wonder is, how in the hell am I gonna run in this tomorrow morning? Sigh!
