Desperate Times

We have a snow day!

This is my first snow day in about five years. And will probably be the last snow day I will ever have. I shall celebrate the momentous occasion by continuing to write papers and occasionally, and by occasionally I mean once every 7-9 minutes, stopping to procrastinate.

The snowfall isn't by any means record breaking, but the road crews are having trouble keeping up, the Hannaford parking lot is covered in snow. I thought at first, that only my award ceremony in Augusta would be cancelled, but who knew that the power system at the Bo' is absolutely incapable of handling emergencies? With power on the fritz and electricity missing all over campus (and the library, which is actually quite sad for me because I really needed some books and articles), they had no choice but to cancel all classes (and warn students to stay away from pine trees and power lines- both very volatile and tall things).

The cancellation of classes today brings the total number of days I have classes this week to a whopping total of one. I would be deliriously happy about that if I wasn't working on so many papers at once.
