sleepless in snowville - post 122

this one will probably be a quick entry.

today's forecast is for 4-10" & so far, there's been a lot of sleet / freezing shit falling. i tried to go to bed at a reasonable hour last night (0200) to prepare for today - but it was well after 0400 before i managed to work my way to sleep...  then i woke up around 0800 thanks to the pinging of icy stuff off the window.  

needless to say, a piss-poor night's worth of sleep combined with a 12.5hr shift tonight (and most likely again tmrw with a possibility for another one friday, dependent on how much falls in total) doesn't bode well for me.

bright side:  the storm (Euclid, i believe they're calling it) should be wrapping up by the time i get out at 0330.  if that forecast holds, then tmrw will just be cleanup after the storm.  the figure most often bandied around work is that each 1" = 24hrs to remove.  there's some potential for more than a little bit of OT for the remainder of the week...
