The only saving grace was that the snow north   of us was so troublesome that most of the offices there were closed and it was relatively quiet for calls and emails

This afternoon it started to snow again in earnest.  From my office window (I now have a window at my desk to my great joy) I could see all the parking lots in the area emptying  and all the roads filling up bumper to bumper  I saw several fender benders and one accident that incapacitated two cars   which then had to be removed by flatbed truck

The Boss (surprisingly) told us we could go home   I decided to stay , those who left promised to "mass text" once they arrived home safely  it took most of them close to 2 hours to get home (all live within 15 - 20 miles of the office)

I stayed until 5:45 - called in my pizza & wings order to our favorite pizza joint, cleared off my car while it warmed up, picked up my pizza and was home by 6:30  - no traffic at all and the roads were plowed and salted

A woman is suing the restaurant chain P.F. Chang's over the prices of their gluten-free options. According to Nation's Restaurant News, Anna Marie Phillips believes that the surcharge on the restaurant's gluten-free menu "violates the Americans with Disabilities Act" by forcing those who cannot eat gluten to pay more. Currently, P.F. Chang's charges gluten-free diners an additional dollar per item, compared to the regular versions of the dishes.  The lawsuit argues that the pricing discriminates against consumers with celiac disease.

Is this woman going to sue EVERY restaurant or store that charges more for gluten-free stuff? :-\ They ALL do!

Monday morning greetings!  I'm going to the conference center this morning.  Apparently, the shuttles are running and the only time I have to be outside is from hotel entrance to the bus - about 30 paces.

Ginny, I enjoyed your photos from the Chicago storm.

Thank you, DR Jeanne.  I'm amazed at how quickly downtown Chicago seem to be back to normal. 
They're used to it

Buy a new one. :)

I usually use the material ones that don't get sticky.

It isn't very old.  I liked this because I can/could easily fit it over my hair.  What kind do you buy?

No specific brand.  it's just material instead of plastic.

My niece gets hers at a special swimming store and they seem to last a long time.  Maybe more expensive caps last longer?  Her last cap she won (they give them as prizes a lot if you win races at swimming meets).

Sorry i can't be more helpful.

Well, it's time for me to leave work.  I'm not going home, though.  My parents got a discounted stay (I think) at a casino near the beach.  Anyway, they want me to sleep over for two nights to watch their cat.  My mom made stuff for tacos, so I'll be fed.  I just need to let out Henry (the cat, named for Henry Fonda) every morning and to make sure that he's back in before I leave for work.

They live about 11 miles from my work, whereas I live only 1 mile away.  I don't like early mornings, and now I'll have to deal with that, AND the commute...granted, it's only for two days.  I'll survive. ;) They have a laptop and a computer, and I'm bringing my new tablet, so I'll still be connected.

Be back later!

Just finished watching "Jersey Boys." I found what Clint Eastwood brought to the movie to be everything that was wrong with the movie.

Good cast, fine performances of the songs, but everything from the drab look of the film to the ham-handed pacing was wrong. One of the weird things is how minor he made the music seem, cutting songs short so there could be more dialogue.
