Back to work this morning. Traffic was without accident, although there was a stalled car that stunted forward momentium for a while, and the drive was generally pretty quick. The shoulders are still covered in a gray blend of ash, sand, salt and whatever else they thought might deter the ice from forming on the roads. Maybe I can gather up the excess of salt built up on near the steps into the office and sprinkle on the steps up to my apartment. Vafa nearly fell last night.
