2 Hour Delay Day

Pittsburgh is so much different than Erie. I swear that I waded my way through blizzards to get to high school without so much as a 15 minute delay, and Pittsburgh schools tend to call 2-hour delays and closings with less extreme conditions. Today, I woke up and, as my daily routine, checked KDKA's website to see if my school had a two-hour delay. My school district did not, but a few did, and so I begrudgingly got ready and left for work. The roads were pretty bad...definitely not the worst I've seen, but bad by Pittsburgh standards. But, as I entered the school's parking lot, I was shocked to see that I was one of 2 cars (very unusual). I walked into school and the security guard informed me that the district had called a two-hour delay during my commute. Bummer. But I was already there, didn't want to drive back, and decided to make use of my extra time. I got a lot of work done for grad school, and prepared for my shortened school day.

The day went by quickly, and because I didn't have night class tonight, I took a detour on my way home to South Side to check out AE and Forever 21. I am not going to mention what I purchased for fear of making this blog about all my spending extravagances and making me look awfully materialistic. I really just have an addiction.

Then, I came home, make chicken and stuffing, and began working on my transcription. Since I signed up for new Weight Watchers online (due to my shock at the scale this morning), I made popcorn for a night snack and continued to work on my school work. Now, I'm getting ready to bundle up and watch some TV. I am desperately hoping for a two-hour delay tomorrow, and this time I will be ready to stay in bed :)
