I'm Not Just Certifiable--I'm CERTIFIED!!!

Meaning I got my teaching certificate in the mail today from West Virginia! I was so happy that I made a high-pitched keening sound and kissed the paper. Hopefully the people who touched it before me were conscientious about handwashing. Oh, what a long, strange trip it's been.

Now I am wondering if I should worry about hurricanes or snow storms!

Do check it out. It could be scary, with a combination of a tropical system coming in with an Artic low on the tail end to whallop us with snow. I don't know what the predictions are for NYC, but Bobby's been keeping an eye on this for about a week now for us here in Maryland; it was being called by only two weather models initially (two of the better but still), and it felt almost jokey at first, but more models are showing the possibility, and we're getting close--as early as Sunday here in Maryland. I'm a bit frightened, honestly. I don't say this to spread the panic but because I hope my friends who might also be in its path are aware and prepared. :(
