Pray for all the little (and not so little) critters on the road

Phase 5 is up!

And the weather is miserable. I could not BELIEVE we didn't have a delay this morning and putting to work down the side of a mountain in 0 visibility as the wind and snow howled around the car, my language may have been a little strong for an ECE teacher. I couldn't see a thing and if I tried to use high beams, the snow looked like my 35 mph had suddenly gone to warp. My greatest fear was that a deer would throw itself out in front of me again. I hate when they do that. It unnerves me so.

I have driven all the way to work insulting deer under my breath. It's usually something along the lines of why such beautiful morons would want to die, and then I scream and slam on the brakes as one goes tap dancing across the road in front of me. None of these things I want to do on a slick road when I can't see a thing. It's like What's Opera, Doc, only I'm Elmer and I just want to safely get to work, and Bugs Bunny is a deer. And like Elmer, I really would be horrified if I killed one.
