It's raining so hard that it's actually roaring on the roof of the library. But does that keep the kids away? NO! They just run from the middle school to the library, fling their wet things all over the furniture, and compete with the distant thunder for volume. Joy.

You will probably not love me anymore when I tell you that I'm kind of snowed in. And the prospects for actually making it up to Athens tomorrow are...yeah, pretty much non-existent.
