saw janet last night. amazing, just like before, although, i must say that i was feeling the crowd more at the garden than at van andel....nevertheless, it was awesome. a-maze-ing. plus it was just fun because it was lorie's birthday (happy 25th!!!) and eric and ny and donna and alvin and j and chrislum were there. =D i was pretty surprised by grand rapids, tho'....it's a pretty nice city. if detroit could just get it's act together to be like that....

so there's snow and snow and snow and oh yeah...ice and freezing rain on top of it. doesn't make for a fun three and a half hour drive at midnight. or a morning commute. i'm pretty much the only one in my office right now. i wonder if anyone else is gonna come to work....it's way too treacherous out there for any vehicle to be on the road. last night we saw at least 10 cars stuck in ditches and this morning i saw 5. i'm sure there were more cuz some of the cars i say were waaaayyy stuck in those ditches. none of the schools are open...with maybe the exception of michigan...they'd technically be open but no one would go to class....just cuz of that lawsuit a few years back. silly law students....i'm always surprised at the things people sue for.
