One website says we're suppose to get 3 inches and another site say we're getting 10 inches. I've been hearing about this storm for the past two weeks, I hope it doesn't end up being a disappointment.

Random question for the Canadians: You get paid at work. Do you get a check or a cheque? And snow has stopped here. We're supposed to get the bulk of it tomorrow, but it's not gonna live up to the hype.

I was about to post a witty response, but I apparently pressed something by accident and it got deleted. So here's the reader's digest version: I use the spelling "cheque", which is technically the correct one to use since Canadian English follows British spellings in most cases.

Apparently, it's a Canadianism to start a sentence with "as well". Did you know that?

| lol. Yes I like to be difficult. Do you still have the link to the site? I'd like to see it. And weather wise. I just had to call into work and tell them that I can't make it but if they really need me just to call in. We're supposed to get 19 inches!! It's horrid out there. HEY! Can everyone take a picture out their front window? Just to see what it looks like!
