Back to the Grindstone
Today was spent in a lazy sort of way. I slept in until almost noon (goodbye to normal sleep schedule), then caught up on the news and such for a couple hours. Then, realizing I had squandered a perfectly good Tuesday, I scrambled down to the flower store and got Roya a mini-rose plant for her birthday. When I walked down to the store it was freezing, but clear and crisp. When I walked out of the store 15 minutes later, it was a blizzard. Huge flakes of snow where whirling about, nearly horizontal, so that walking back to my apartment I had to keep my head completely downn and buried in my jacket. I had a full inch of snow on the top of my head (rather resembling a badly placed yarmulke).
Then it was back down to catch the bus to Wayne's Coffee, where I met my Advanced Leadership teammates Karl and Ronan. The paper is due tomorrow morning, so we were making final, frantic edits. In the end, the paper is strong, and Karl is in charge of getting it printed and handed in by tomorrow at 10 a.m.
Afterwards I came back and caught the tail end of Roya's make-your-own-pizza birthday party. It was great fun, even if the pizzas came out a little weird.
And now, just past midnight, I am off to bed. Tomorrow is our class-wide thesis meeting, and I'm eager to see what it's all about.
