Snow?

Jan 29th...

For 2 days now, everyone and their mother has been talking about this awful snow storm that's coming, schools were already planning to be closed today and Derrick didn't have to go into work until 9:30. I held back a little laugh when the guy on the radio announced the "severe storm warning" and said we should be expecting almost 4 inches! I thought to myself "Really?" Back in Washington it could snow 6 feet and people hardly notice...every one still has to work, everyone still has to go to school. I had no clue that this tiny bit of snow could turn a town upside down like this. Derrick was off from work after only 2 hours today and there was no one at all on the roads, he even saw a 4 car pile-up in the Lowes parking lot! It was all fun and jokes for me and Derrick talking about how crazy everyone is acting...until we decided to order a pizza.

Me: "Yes I would like to make an order for delivery."

Pizza Hut Girl: "Oh, we're not delivering tonight."

Me: "Really? How come?"

Pizza Hut Girl: "Uh, the weather..."

I was absolutely speechless.

In all seriousness, if this is how bad the winters get here...I'm never moving!

***Update***

Ok, after I posted this the snow kept falling and we have about 6 inches now...so I will eat my words a little. BUT, that is no reason to shut down Pizza Hut!
