Frozen Faux Pas

I stayed home from work today even though my employer was open normal business hours. The forecast called for freezing drizzle till noon and then intensifying into freezing rain. That a reasonably substantial layer of ice accumulated on my windshield during the hour I jogged in the neighborhood workout room early this morning convinced me that I should just stay home rather than endure the hassle of chipping an ice tomb from my car at the end of the workday.

But the freezing rain has yet to appear. The forecasts sound less foreboding than they did this morning. And ice is not accumulating on my flora as I was anticipating. I think I misjudged the situation and should have gone to work. Now I've used a day of vacation and all I have to show for it is this overwhelming feeling of guilt.

It's as if I skipped school or cut class or something.

Update
I found out that my employer released everyone at 2 PM. So I won't have to take a whole day of vacation.
