Lazy day today! Temperature has been around 0°F all day, so I've stayed home. Church services were cancelled due to the weather, so I didn't get to see my mom.

Thought it was just going to be cold, so I bought a movie ticket for a theater the next town over. Turns out I should've poked my head outside and/or put on the weather. It'd been snowing while I wasn't paying attention. Snowing enough that my brakes didn't brake and I nearly slid into my town's main drag with a truck coming at me. Had slam the brakes, which sucked. That put the kibosh on Attempt 2 to catch a movie. (Attempt 1 failed because of a work task taking three hours of my time. Including an hour and a half of my movie.) Good news is when I finally get to see the movie, I can see it for free! Discovered a "Happy Birthday" e-mail voucher for a free ticket, popcorn and soda from the movie chain. Hopefully third time's the charm!

I'll check the car later, make sure nothing broke. Apart from that, staying home.
