As I went to bed last night, I could hear the ping, ping, ping of frozen rain/sleet against the window of the bedroom. This morning, I put on my boots and navigated my way across icy sidewalks to get to the bus stop because there was no way that I would make it to the Metro in one piece on my trusty BMX bike.
The kids, of course, had a third day in a row of no school. Obama made fun of DC today – apparently Chicago schools haven’t been closed due to weather since 1999.
