So I get up about a half hour early to shovel my car out. I do my bit, even help a few other people shovel out.
Turns out the problem wasn't the snow, it was the people driving in it. I was delayed 2 hours because several idiots got themselves stuck and didn't know how to rock back and forth to drive out of it. Then when the plow came to help out, the plow ended up shoveling about 4ft of snow right in front of my parking spot! That i just cleared!!!!

Got up late, went to the gas station to get gas for the blower, realized I forgot gas can. Bought a new gas can, came home, on the way home I saw some old guy shoveling by hand, in HP where got like 12 inches, I offered to do it, he said how much, I said 25. Went home fueled up, got the blower, walked to his house, did his driveway, went door to door, one woman said do the steps and walkway, not the driveway, I said ok, 10 dolllars, she said deal, I did it, she gave me 15, keep it, walked home, next door neighbor asked me to do it, I said ok, she said is 25 ok, I said fine, I did it, she gave me 30,
went home, took a shower, went on forums.

Just remember, AWD doesn't allow you to stop any faster than everyone else.

My drive to Naperville was pretty decent, had one lady in a Solara that would maybe go 15-20mph on Fabian Parkway (I would have been able to drive 30mph, limit is 50mph) and a rig that got stuck on the medium on Rt 38 just short of the Rt38 & Fabain intersection but that was it! I'm just looking forward to the drive home on ice...................
