1.The world didn't end. (my guess)
2. The world ended, and I'm a zombie. A really badass one, considering I'm typing and I'm not thinking about eating brains or anything.
3. Somebody effed up the date/time.
4. Someone thought it would be funny to freak out people with the Mayan calendar... Maybe even the Mayans thought it would be funny.
The couple days leading up to "the end of the world" were pretty interesting. And by that I mean "we had a freaking blizzard". And everybody forgot how to drive. I've lost count of the number of cars I've seen beside the road and the number of accidents holding up traffic since the snow really started coming down on Wednesday.
Thursday, post-blizzard warning, was a freaking nightmare. I would've been more than content to keep my behind at home, curled up underneath a blanket, but for some reason the unpaid intern had to brave the nasty roads.
When I got to my internship, there were only 7 clients there. SEVEN! Usually we have somewhere around 125-150 or so at any given time.
On the drive home I had to brave a clover leaf. The whole drive was probably safer than if I'd taken the city streets to get home, but the clover leaf was terrifying. You know that feeling when your car starts sliding/fishtailing a little bit - in the middle of a curve?
Yeah, well, I do. It was a moment of minor terror I would not wish on anybody.
After getting safely on the interstate I was rolling along at a pretty good (see: safe and efficient) clip, when I realized the cars in the far left lane were pretty much stopped. No clue what the accident was there, but there were a couple cops and people were slowly getting through. Then on the highway I passed two cops preceding a 5-car pile-up, and then ANOTHER cop!
I wouldn't say I'm superstitious or anything, but knock on wood that neither DH nor I end up in a situation like that (or anyone else, for that matter).
It must be time for bed. I forgot what I had to say.
OH! I *finally* found some recovery compression calf sleeves. Scheels Sporting Goods had them for cheaper than I've seen any other place. I'm wearing them right now, actually, and I feel GOOD.
Ok, NOW I'm out. But with one last parting shot (well, two, really)
1.
2. I'm looking forward to NOT having "It's the End of the World as We Know It" stuck in my head. I don't even know all the words to it, but I'm sure that based on the title of the song you may have some sort of idea ;)
Goodnight!
