Right now, we’re in the early stages of a full on blizzard here in NYC. Normally, I’d be all about the snow. But today is one of the busiest holiday travel days of the year. So I say, “Fuck the Snow.” American Airlines has already canceled my 2:15 flight to Burbank and if I’m very lucky I’ll make it out on a flight leaving after 8:00 PM tonight, getting me in to LAX around Midnight. At least it’s a direct flight. Now . . . if it can just get out of NYC I’ll be happy, and snow will be off my shit list.
