ok, this is just stupid. I can see that maybe it would have taken the plow guy until last night to get back here, but it's been 48 hours now that I haven't been able to leave my apartment by car. The streets are clear, there's no problem there, just the THOUSAND FOOT SNOW MOUNTAIN surrounding the parking lot. There's a slightly smaller snow mountain out the back that's easier to climb over, but there's a fence there so there's no driving over it either. It's too big anyway. I called my landlord yesterday afternoon to let him know what was going on, and he suggested I shovel my way out. He had not seen the snowbanks. So I said fine, I'll wait. As of this morning, no way out. I thought, surely, there would be a path by the time I got home today; I live above the landlord's store, which he couldn't open yesterday because of the weather. I sort of assumed he would want to open today, but apparently not. So I'm just sort of pissed, I have things to do, none of which I can do on foot. I can't do much Christmas shopping if I take the bus, and I'd sort of like to drive my car every couple of days anyway when it's cold out, to keep it happy. Anyway, I've called him again but there was no answer, and since it's his home number I didn't leave a nasty message, just emphasized that I've been unable to leave for 2 days, I need to be able to get out, I have to go to work etc. It's my week to drive, but I swapped a couple of days with one of my carpool buddies. I understand that it's not entirely my landlord's fault, but it is his responsibility to make sure stuff like this gets done.
I think that's all for now. I almost had to murder most of my period 3 class, they were just ass-ish and disrespectful, very tiring. My other grade 10s were great though, as usual. It's nice to have some sort of balance, and for the love of crap, we're more than half done 2nd term anyway. 8 more school days til vaca. sweetass.
