How We Do Snow Down South

Received the message below from a friend in Virginia and I inserted Greene County in some places....but it works for almost any place down South!

Love it!

 In case you're new to the area, let me tell you how we do it here.

• Someone somewhere says snow is coming to eastern NC
• We start paying attention.
• Someone says it's coming to Greene County.
• We Greene County folks really start paying attention.
• Someone (weatherman) brandishes the word "accumulation." 

Done. Finished. Over. We who call Eastern NC home all-out lose our minds. 

In the case of this snow, it happens like this: 
Tuesday morning: The word "accumulation" is first used. 
Tuesday afternoon: Accumulation confirmed. All weekend plans put on stand-by or out-right canceled. 
Tuesday evening: First trip to supermarket for bread, milk, wine, beer and cookie dough. 
Wednesday morning / afternoon: Calls around town for sleds begin
Wednesday evening: Local news does a story about the run on supermarkets for bread and milk. Second trip to supermarket for extra bread and milk, plus frozen pizzas and non-perishables, because you never know. 
Thursday morning / afternoon: Spend workday obsessively checking the forecast. More calls for sleds. Search online for sleds, but decide against them because you can't believe how much sleds actually cost. 
Thursday evening: Meet friends out for dinner because you never know when you'll get out again. Realize you forgot to buy bagels. How could you forget bagels? Third trip to supermarket. 
Friday morning: Alternate staring out window for snow and consulting forecast for exact snow start time. Cancel the rest of weekend plans. 
Friday afternoon: Weather.com reports that it is snowing in your area. Run to window. Spend at least one hour yelling at weather.com because it is clearly not snowing. Ask boss about company inclement weather policy. Complain about said policy. Wait an hour; ask boss if company is closing early. 
Friday evening: Fourth trip to supermarket on the way home for last-minute necessities, like chocolate and fancy hot cocoa. Alternate staring out window and watching local news for exact snow start time. Watch the Closings scroll to see if your work is closed on Monday, because you never know. 
Friday night: Snow finally begins. Call/text all of your friends and family to see if it's snowing in their area and to make sure they're OK in the storm. Update Facebook status to reflect snowfall in case you missed anyone. Order pizza so you don't have to break into rations too soon. 
Saturday morning: Marvel at snowfall. Fling pets / children into the snow so they can marvel and so you have pictures for your Facebook page. 
Saturday afternoon: Drive or trudge to nearest hill and attempt to sled on a cookie sheet/shower curtain/trashcan lid/pool float. 
Saturday evening: Meet friends out for drinks or dinner to celebrate snow. 
Sunday: Eat leftover pizza and stare out window, watching snow melt. Obsessively watch Closings list. Feel happy when the county you live in announces closing and then sad because you never became a teacher and now you have to go out, clean off the car and then go to work tomorrow. Plus you've got all that bread and milk to eat.
