Weekend Recap

Happy Birthday to my Grandma who turns 80 today..

No idea what I consumed this weekend.. Had a real good lift Friday morning on Christmas Eve, Thursday was a half day at work, also a big squat night at the gym. The nights this weekend were pretty much filled with beers - no shots were taken and no real garbage food was consumed.. Yesterday since the Giants looked like pure garbage, that's what I ate like. But it was worth it, mom made chicken parm, had Dustin and Craig over so we just killed it. So good.

Storm of the century came through and dumped about 93 feet of snow in the metropolitan area. The LIRR suspended all trains so I had to drive the beast Jeep in. Thing killed it, I was here in 45 minutes. Saw one guy fly past me on the LIE and once he got about 1/4 mile up in front of me he spun out and I started laughing. He came about a foot from getting smashed up by the car behind him which would've been perfect.

Got off the BQE and turned onto Flatbush, could see my building and all of a sudden came to a dead stop.. SUV 3 cars ahead of me runs out of gas. Like come on, we serious? How can you be that unprepared? Once he moved, 15 minutes later, cop car in front of me gets stuck. An FDNY Fire Marshall came out so I pulled over and tried to help out, we pushed all we could but the guy buried it so they called a tow truck and I bizounced to work.

Minus those couple of road bumps it wasn't all that bad getting to work. The roads were pretty terrible though, considering the bulk of the snow came yesterday and last night, you'd think the plows would've done some sort of work for the morning commute, but nope.
