Damn, the weather is getting bad here in upstate NY. [View all]
Had a doctor's appointment 15 miles away this morning. It was only supposed to snow a couple of inches.
My wife was nice enough to shovel the driveway and clean off my car while I was in the shower. She begged me to cancel the appointment, but I told her I had to go because it was a specialist with a 6 month waiting time to get an appointment.
It was a really greasy drive there that tested my skills. Started to spin out more than a few times, and was able to pull out of them ok.
I was on the highway doing 55, and some asshole in an F150 blew by me in the left lane, and I swear he must have been doing 90 MPH. I thought "that idiot is not going to make it". Sure enough, a few miles down the road, he put his truck in a ditch in the median. I saw him get out of the truck. He looked OK, so I didn't stop.
They finally issued a winter storm warning on the TV while I was in the waiting room.
Made it home OK...saw 3 cars in the ditch on the way home.
Be careful out there.
