Ice Ice Baby

Bracing for a few days of COLDDDDDDDD and ICE. There's a nasty front moving into Oklahoma and apparently it's supposed to be the ice storm of all ice storms. I didn't know about it until yesterday because I'm just oblivious to local news but last night I decided to take it seriously. I went to the grocery store to get a few provisions and you would think that people were preparing for some long term war or disaster...the shelves were empty...no milk...hardly any meat or bread. It was crazy. I do expect to lose power during the next few days because when that ice piles up the lines snap like crazy. So, I have candles, flashlights, a gas fireplace, and some books. It will be like camping (so I keep telling myself).
