Yay, things to point out to Hubby! He just can't believe there are cost-effective ways to have cellphones. The minutes expiring shouldn't be too much a problem, as I don't intend to use it much and so will only buy small amounts.
We went for a long walk around the lake in the snow. Tried to take Frankie but he started limping, so no long walk for him. I think he might have an old injury or something.
I don't know if I should try and go home today - if I don't I'll probably be stuck until Tuesday.
It's not that much of a hardship. I mean, I wanted to get home tonight just to be in my own bed, see the kitties, swim and have a fake weekend to get stuff done. But as it is, I get an extra day and a half here, where I can't do any chores that I actually mind (doing other peoples' laundry and dishes don't count) and I get to play with the nephews and hang out with my brother and SIL. So painful, you know?
Oops, so I lose a day of work, but that can't be helped.
I'm similarly lucky, sarameg, as my niece and nephew are good company, and doing dishes here garners me thanks, instead of just the needed clean knives that prompt it at home.

Given how ubiquitous cell phones are, does he just think that everyone who has one is getting scammed?
The minutes do expire, but when you add more the old ones are extended as well -- basically, when you add time you are adding minutes and extending the expiration date for all your minutes.
You have to buy new service time before the old service time runs out in order to keep your old minutes. Also, if you let the service time run out, you may lose your phone number if/when you do buy more.
Of course, now the Baltimore part of the storm is downgraded to 2-4", which is totally doable. But it's cancelled, monday's flights were sold out before the storm looked monster.

Or rich?
We've got about 3" on the ground right now, and it's really picked up in the last hour or so.
It's blowing a bit, and sticking to the grass, but the roads are still clear.
