Snow & pin curls...

I'm in Virginia for work reasons and it's actually snowing. This city is shut down. From what I've been told, it will shut down for 1" to 3," so this must seem like the Apocalypse. It was supposed to start last night, but didn't start until after 4AM.

It's funny to see how they act down here. This is a pretty heavy storm, so I'll give them that. In PA, we do the mad rush to the store, but not the gas station. We also don't call out of work for a storm that won't hit until the next day. I had to get gas yesterday and it was insane. I drove past a grocery store and it wasn't just busy...you would have thought they were giving away free food.

Needless to say, the friend that was going to take me to the local antique stores cancelled. From what I'm seeing, they wouldn't be open anyway.

I've seen a few cars drive by and none of them had cleaned the snow off. This is a pet peeve of mine. I don't know if people just don't know why to do it or they think it's pretty, but I hate driving behind these people especially when it breaks loose and slams into my car. It's dangerous. It's not that hard people. Clean off your cars.

Since everything is closed here, I'm playing w/ my hair. My hair is straight...so straight that it will not hold a curl. I've tried pin curls before and it doesn't happen. I was reading some posts in a forum I lurk in and am trying one of their recommendations. I put it up last night and haven't taken it down yet. All but one twisty-curl I set last night stayed put. I have one in the back that escaped, so it looks like a twirly rat tail.

Back to watching Operation Petticoat. :)
