Date: 2004-02-05 02:12 pm (UTC)And thanks for the invite, but at the moment I am leaving my car right where it is. I'm parked in one of the uphill spots right now, which means I'll definitely be able to get out on Sunday. If I leave, I don't know whether I'll even be able to get back up the hill (the sound of someone's wheels spinning as I type suggests not). And if I do manage that, I'll probably be stuck with a downhill spot that I won't be able to leave til the thaw. Hence the wish for more people online to chat with, so I don't go nuts stuck within walking distance of the apartment.
