    I'm not sure at what age you outgrew the total and absolute JOY that a snow day brings, but I can tell you that at 30 I still LOVE me a snow day.

    Of course, I'm a teacher so it means a day off...

    I'm a teacher, and I dread snow days -- because a snow day means one less day in a 16 week semester, and one less lecture to give, etc.

    Oh sure, rescheduling is a pain in the ****, but (for me) it's totally worth it.

    Of course, I work at a private school and we don't have a limited number of snow days...which means that there's no threat of extra days tacked onto the end of the year.
