Actually, the snow isn't bad. Brutal temperature drop since 9am this morning (35 degree difference, and the temp is STILL dropping). Wind is equally vicious, gusting up to almost 50mph. Almost zero visibility in the metro. About 90 minutes north, there IS no visibility. Have a friend that had to pull off the highway (and will stay the night in Hinckley which is halfway between MSP and Duluth) because of that. Supposed to get about 6-8 inches when all is said and done.
Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

The wind right now is sustaining 27MPH and will gust up to 50MPH. Sideways snow isn't my favorite, but it's better than sleet.

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

This is true. So, left work at 3pm. Realized forgot my phone at work at 4:30. I foolishly went back out to get it. 7 minute commute (normally), was a 70 minute commute, no traffic, not kidding.

Got my love seat delivered this morning. Fit in the elevator with no problem! Now I have a halfway decent living room. Quick delivery, nice and early. Found out that The Godfather and Godfather Part 2 are on all day today, so now my day is planned. One more gift to wrap - the personalized towels I ordered. And I got an email from USPS that the original order is also delivering today. It’s a Christmas miracle! Or, a Festivus miracle at the very least.
It's f*ing cold out. Actually had to bust out my winter jacket (my dad's Vietnam War-era Air Force Parka, that he wore in AK). Yep, it lives, although it's pretty beat up. Still is warm, though.
