Musical Advent Calendar: Day Thirteen

Three songs today:
Robin Gibb -- In the Bleak Midwinter
Bee Gees -- Mary's Boy Child Medley
Andy Gibb -- Come Home For the Winter
All of these tracks are fairly rare, if you are into that sort of thing. I know not everyone loves the Bee Gees the way I do, but you should.
You guys! I can't get out of my neighborhood this morning. Of course the county offices aren't even on delayed opening, despite the fact that we got a few inches of snow last night and the schools are closed and they don't even bother running a plow over the secondary streets, never mind sanding or anything. One would think, given that it's impossible to get out of my neighborhood without going up (and then back down) a large hill, that they would think of these sorts of things and maybe close the fucking library so I don't have to use vacation time to spend the day trapped in my house.
I keep thinking that I should really just try to go in, because it's just a little snow, after all, and if I go waaaaay out of my way I can mostly avoid the worst of the hills. But then I remember what happened to my car during that storm last year, and that was on the way home. So I don't really want to go out in this mess, even though I know if I lived further north I wouldn't have a choice. (If I lived further north the secondary streets would at least get plowed, even if the neighborhoods didn't, so it's a moot point, but still.)
