It's going to be a lovely Spring day today and work is going to ruin it for me. We have been ordered to show up at a lunch for first year students, and been given talking points, in the hope that we the faculty can convince them not to transfer and take their tuition money elsewhere. It's assigned seating, so there is almost no chance I'll have someone to snark with. Boo.
Tomorrow is also the birthday of one of my bestest friends, so I approve of Mallory's choice of day to be born.
Not much snow fell overnight, but the prediction is 8-12 inches today. It is the Friday before Spring Break for CJ. Do I send him to school? For the moment schools are open but if the snow comes in as expected, I can see them sending the kids home early. What to do...what to do.
oh, it's gonna be a long day if posting is this slow. WAKE UP EVERYBODY!
It looks like half my department is not in, but only 4 put in for time off. interesante.
I'm awakeish. I should be working on editing my dissertation.
Is anyone here a member of Angie's List?
Happy birthday, big boy Mal!
Ugh. Must prod myself into motion; just don't wanna. Matilda is snoring away in the other room. She's unbelievably loud.
Another night of bad sleeping, at least partly due to the fact that my contract will likely end 4/15, which is scary.
I'm awake! I'm wearing my new Liberty men's shirt, this one: [link] And low-slung black pants, and somehow feel oddly like Madonna (i.e. here: [link] though of course my bra is not showing and I am not wearing satin.)
Happy Birthday Mal!
I did not go to work yesterday because I was sick, sick , sick. I am here today but am wishing I wasn't.
I swear, when I was younger, being sick mostly was a stuffy nose, none of this "general malaise" and /of just feeling like crap. I also have a cough.
This LOLcat has a point about laundry:

flea, yesterday in the park we met three siblings: Mossimo, Eleanor and Leo. I wondered what had happened between Mossimo and Eleanor to make them go from unusual to traditional.
