Well, to be technical, it wasn't a complete snow day today. I woke up for my 8 a.m. class to the unhappy sight of no snow on the ground. But just as I left the house at 7:55 a.m., the first flakes started falling! There was some serious accumulation all throughout class, to the point where at least a good inch or so had settled when I went back ( Read more... )

Meme for all those interested. I wasn't sure whether I wanted to do it or not at first, but I finally gave in. Also, given my limited creative abilities I make no guarantees regarding what you'll receive ( Read more... )

Just a quick update, because I have to be at club fair in a moment to help out until my placement orientation starts. (Actually, I said I'd be there about 20 minutes ago, but I've had a lot to do.) I had a crazy week this week. Not full-on bad, but a tiny bit stressful and quite a bit rushed. I've spent the entire time running from place to place, ( Read more... )

So I think it says something about me that I went to game night at my church, which consisted of Outburst and Bingo, and had more fun than I've had in a long time. It was hilarious to watch the ladies at church leading the games, and debating rules and when to clear the boards for bingo and everything. Also, I won a cool DVD ("Lady in the Water") ( Read more... )

It is so incredibly cold down here in the family room. I have the curtain by the screen door open so we can let in natural light and not waste electricity, but this also means that the curtain is not blocking out the cold air, which is why we normally keep it closed. The last three days have been ridiculously cold overall. But I can't really ( Read more... )

Yesterday I got a letter in the mail. It started with the following sentence ( Read more... )

Woke up this morning to discover that JCB is not feeling well, so my 8 a.m. is cancelled! Gen went straight back to bed, but I had already made myself breakfast and a cup of tea, and decided that I would stay awake instead and get some stuff done now. It'll mean I can take a slightly longer nap in the afternoon ( Read more... )

Just wanted to say that tomorrow I'll be working on something fun to post here in the next couple days! So keep your eye out for that ( Read more... )

Wow...almost a month since I've updated here. That's real evidence that life has been kicking my ass. :) But it's getting better now, so I am back. Let's start with what's really important, though: Heroes.

( Spoilers for the last four episodes of Heroes, mostly 'Angels and Monsters' and 'Dying of the Light'...Wow, I'm behind on these updates. )

I will go into this in much more detail later, but I had a very stressful evening tonight. I went to a work meeting, and learned that aside from the once-a-week tours I'm slated to give, I will no longer be getting paid for any of the work I do for Admissions. Instead of that, they're instating this ridiculous points system, where the type and ( Read more... )
