It's Boxing Day!

I am not up North with my godparents the way I would like to be. However, after an initial rush things seem to be quieter at work. The traffic getting here was insane: my office is situated near a big old shopping complex, so while the autoroute was completely clear (it took only 15 minutes from home to exit) it took nearly 15 extra minutes to get from the exit to the office (roughly 5 city blocks) because of all the people in cars trying to get to the Boxing Day deals.

The alarms are coming in steadily today, but as I said, apart from a massive rush when I came in (nearly 40 alarms in 30 minutes), it's not too bad. The morning rush is over, and people are likely trickling back home, purchases in hand. There's a tractor that keeps sending an alarm every 15 minutes, because it's out clearing snow, which was annoying at first but now is just funny. (*squee* SNOW!) Correction: two tractors. I think they're having a competition to see which one can accumulate the most alarms.

Okay, the alarms are starting up again. Gotta go!
