At 5:30 a.m. this past Monday, I tossed and turned with only one thought in my head, “The Panthers are going to the Super Bowl!” Psych! I kid, I kid. I was actually begging myself to go back to sleep knowing I had to get up in two hours. Instead, I was lying there thinking about how tired I was, even after sleeping for what felt like an eternity this icy weekend.
If you were lucky, you missed out on the “blizzard” that hit the East Coast this past weekend.
While I enjoyed every minute of it, there are many others who started experiencing cabin fever as early as Friday evening. I still had to work on Friday (even though my office was closed, which was a bummer) but after getting done early, nothing, not even hunger, stopped me from the most amazing nap.
If you’ve been in Charlotte/North Carolina for a winter then you know everything pretty much shuts down when a winter storm hits. Not to mention, every gallon of milk and loaf of bread is snatched up at least two days prior.
As such, you can imagine nightlife can be a drag during this season. After all, no one is cute when they’re falling, and definitely not on ice.
Still yet, the boyfriend — who swears he can drive under any conditions — and a couple friends managed to make the weekend a success.
