Batdance, indeed.
Hell just froze over. I just printed out the final draft of my paper on the California Air Resources Board and will drop it off in about half an hour. That 40-page Sword of Damocles is no longer hanging over my head. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the makers of Excedrin and Diet Dr. Pepper for helping me get through the last two days with only three hours of sleep. And I'd like to thank my cat, Monkey, for occasionally biting my elbow to keep me motivated. And I'd like to thank Ronald Reagan for running for governor and creating the Air Resources Board in the first place. Whoa, that last point is definitive proof that I'm delirious.
Actually, Hell probably didn't really freeze over, but Columbus certainly did. We've lost 50 degrees of temperature over the last couple of days as a succession of thunderstorms came through, and we had some freezing rain coming down outside as I walked to my office. Welcome to Spring Break in Ohio...
