Kansas Crimson

We had to hole up in a holiday inn last night. Pretty nasty snow storm and ice ahead of us. I'm currently eating the worst breakfast ever. But, yes gutter, I am grateful to have a warm , dry room and something to eat.

My kids are on their second consecutive snow day...for no discernable reason. And the way my school district works, those snow days will cost them (us) President's Day and the Friday before Spring Break. So dumb.

do they not have snow days already built into the schedule?

Yeah that's strange if they don't. I thought every school district in areas that get snow have built in snow days. My kids had yesterday off, but back at it today. Only a few inches here in Wichita area. Not 7+ like KC Metro area.

With budgets so thin, what they have are days that can be flexed into snow days. So, yesterday means the kids are in school on President's Day, and today means the kids will be in school on the Friday before Spring Break.

Any additional snow days will be tacked on after Memorial Day.

Colorado snowpack 126% above normal so far this season!

How do you pronounce Saguache, anyway?

Cuz so far I’ve just been calling it Sa-Gucci.

Sawatch

Everyone but deponent and his/her counsel was ready to go this morning.

For chrissakes, get to work!

I saw a plane slid off the runway at KCI

Kinda fucking up my morning. Good news is there are 3 NCAA dance teams stuck in my terminal headed to Orlando for nationals.

The pilot probably freelances as a plaintiff's lawyer.

Jesus. Safe travels today. Shitty weather all over.

I started to walk to the bus stop. Almost fell on my ass.

I will go in later. And who starts a deposition at 8:00 am?

Wasn't til 9, but I wanted to get there early to be courteous to the court reporter--who also showed up.

Sidewalks are slick as shit, though. None of my staff is here, which is good.

Dang. Be safe everyone.

CnB, do you work downtown?

Everybody made it in today except for the one guy who was supposed to fly out to Palm Springs for the weekend. He is stuck at MCI for the day. I was going to take everyone out for lunch at Grinders but their cooks didn't come in I guess and they are closed until 2:00 PM. We spun the roulette wheel of peristalsis and went to the Brick, god help us all.
