Natural Disasters and Medication

I haven't left my house since Monday. I didn't need to leave since Snowpocalypse 2011 is upon us. Or Snowmageddon. Or Snoblivion.

Whichever strikes your fancy. I personally enjoy Snowmageddon. :D

As it is, I've come to a decision. I love where I live and I have good reasons for it. Yes, I have to deal with massive amounts of snow in the winter (though not as much as some of the more northern states I assume) and crazy humidity in the summer (though I love heat, so who cares?). So as long as you drive like a sane person and realize that yes, the snow will leave, you'll be fine.

I mean, the Midwest is just awesome. Where else can you go outside when it's 33 degrees and say "Wow, it's warm today."

Living where I do I don't have to deal with hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or random tidal waves. Of course I do realize that earthquakes can happen near me (and have in fact) or that tornadoes could still hit. But they are not a REGULAR occurrence. Point made! 

Seriously, if you watch History Channel at all you know that a massive Tsunami could hit the east coast of the USA or that massive earthquakes in California could totally bring down all of LA. Nope I'll take the part of the Midwest where you are less likely to die thank you very much.

Plus I'm like an hour away from Chi-town. Awww yeah. 

So why am I pondering how great it is to be a Midwesterner? Mostly because I am bored and have nothing to do. This is due to the SNOW. ALL the FREAKIN' snow. Being stuck in your house for three days will make you ponder interesting things.

Plus I might be a little crazy from medication. I had a cold start up on Monday and it got worse Tuesday. So when I was informed that there would be no school for the next two days I was really happy. Not only could I recover, but I wouldn't have to miss class because of it!

Also, I'd rather have this hit now than next week. I'm in a wedding next week, fate would not be kind if I had this next week.

So I'm high on meds and trying to sleep and this is the result of that.
