Awake, Thou Wintry Earth.

Atlanta Snow Day, Part I:

This is what we woke up to this morning here in Atlanta, Georgia:

 

And here is the text I received at 6:05 this morning as I fearfully dressed to go into Grady:

"I'm sure y'all have figured it out but they just called and decided to close the clinic." 

The Grady Hospital Clinic? Closed? Say whaaaat?

This is something that I have never seen happen in the ten years I have worked here. Ever. 

Obviously, a lot more than Atlanta had to freeze over for that to happen.

Happy Snow Day to all. . . .and to my colleagues in the Grady ER and on the wards holding down the fort--thank you.
