There's a whole manual that tells you. It's called Lord of the Rings. Just be Samwise Gamgee.
They even made movies about Sam. They're pretty good movies.

I should find a video game to lose myself in. Maybe I can force myself to finish FF3 so I can move onto FF4 (which is allegedly when they start to get good)

If you wanna be a good neighbor and get extra Minnesota Nice points*, it is a fantastic time to check the storm drains on your street to make sure they’re not clogged with leaves before The backed-up water freezes.
*Points not redeemable for anything, but the important thing is you can feel smug.

If C is a completely average "grocery store the week of Thanksgiving and day before a snowstorm" experience, Hy-Vee Robbinsdale was a C+.
It was exactly as much suck as you would expect--no more, no less... except that people (both staff and customers) were actually more friendly than usual!

Snow totals have gone up in the Twin Cities. 3-4” for most, some 5” totals in the north metro.
What’s still the same: Snow begins after 7:00 PM, ends around sunrise Wednesday, and wind gusts of 40+mph will blow snow around.
