And refrain from opening the door again unless it is credibly the police or building security.

I just got informed that our county is in a state of emergency, so no work tomorrow. Which sucks, cuz we’re closed on mondays and I can get shit done with no guests. And I have multiple things to get done on the floor.

Going to bed soon. It’s been an interesting couple days. Maybe I’ll share in the next MMP. I’m not sure. See y’all on the flip side.

You sound like my BIL. He’s a facility supe at an art museum and their dark days tend to be when he gets stuff done.

Late night final before bedtime. Watched most of the tackleball games today, between internettin’ and working on the crossword. Think I will be taking **JtC** ’s advice and will hibernate at home tomorrow and maybe Tuesday while the below-freezing temperatures exist. (And just looked and they’ve already closed the schools for tomorrow, which is another reason to stay indoors).

**Piper** , glad you were able to get the car started and got some Mickey D’s food in the bargain.

**JtC** , admire the snowy weather from inside, but I don’t recommend going out in it, especially driving.

**{{Coppertone}}** , take **BBBoo’s** advice. Not a good situation.

**VanGO** , lots of the local museums are closing tomorrow too. Don’t try and push it too hard in regards to going in.

And that’s all folks. Catch y’all on the next MMP (at least those of us who don’t freeze).
