Snow Day vs. Snowed In

Thanks to the weather, I had to cancel happy hour with the girls, which makes me very UN-happy. Most of the schools in the area were closed today, but my office, of course, was not. My boss left after lunch, instructing me to "hold down the fort" in her absence. Alas, I was too antsy about missing girl's night to get anything done.Why is it that when you're a kid you pray for a snow day, and when you're a grown-up those pretty white flakes simply translate into traffic delays and frozen pipes and only the fun things get canceled? Now that I'm home, I plan to spend the evening blogging and reading the latest issue of Cosmo, which fortuitously arrived today. And if I'm good, maybe they'll be a grown-up hot chocolate in my future...
