Playlist for January 25, 2010 - SNOW!!!!

I love snow!  We certainly got our share of it this weekend, and I should have predicted this would make getting to the station difficult.  Janelle was stranded in Calgary once again (I'm starting to think this is intentional...), so I knew I had to make it to the station or there would be many disappointed listeners (hahaha).  After half a block, half an hour, and many spinouts, I finally gave up, left my car at home, and headed to the station by foot.  It was an almost unreal atmosphere as I marched on bravely down the roads (sidewalks were out of the question...too many drifts!).  Abandoned cars, people madly shoveling, vehicles spinning out, and others soldiering on by foot dotted the streets as I ran/walked to the station...the atmosphere was brilliantly eerie and exciting.  I did make it to the station only 10 minutes late, and managed to fit in most of the playlist I had painstakingly planned (for once!).  Thanks to my friend Erin, who heard of my predicament as she listened to my show and braved the streets in her vehicle to escort me to work afterwards.  The day got off to an unusual but exhilerating start, and I can't wait to go play in the snow!!!
