I'm outta my mind with freakin' excitement !...I'm never going to be able to sleep tonight...There won't be a loaf a bread, a gallon of milk or a roll of toilet paper to be found in my state by the end of today...It doesn't take much snow to bring this state to a screeching halt & I have no doubt that this amount of snow will completely incapacitate my lil' state...

The schools over this way will start letting out students in 15 minutes (I think it was an early dismissal day, anyways)!

Not that we get a lot of snow here . . . ever . . . but this might be our biggest snow amount in several years.

The schools here LITERALLY PANIC, which is always comical to me, but I guess the safest thing to do.
