You Don't See That Everyday...

...BLIZZARD WARNING...

And, hoo-boy, is it cold and windy out. My afternoon class was cancelled, so I got to come home early and crank up the thermostat.

One thing I tend to do whenever I get home--from work, school, WalMart, whatever--is strip immediately and put on my "comfy clothes." Right now, for example, I am rocking the flannel pajama bottoms, oversized sweatshirt, and ponytail action.

Where other people put on sweatpants, I put on flannel pajama pants. And yes, I do occasionally (but rarely) go out in public with my flannel pants. I try to wear the muted ones if that happens...the moons holding their teddy bears and wearing a stripey nightcap are a little too obvious. Meaning, if I wear those outside, I have obviously been wearing them since the night before.

Btw, anyone keeping track at home can add $50 to my textbook expenses for the semester...I had to buy a "coursepack" yesterday. Those are collections of journal articles and the like that professors put together and have printed and bound for the class. Most professors these days post them to the course website online, but occasionally one of them is a lazy bastard. Or technologically backwards.

I had to type a short paper in French, and that sucked. I hate having to type the accents and crap. Plus then I have to remember the accents and crap. The final project for that class will be around 10 pages, so I look forward to a few late nights cursing the French for not obliterating their special characters.

Margaret Truman died. I read her books The President's House, First Ladies, and Harry S. Truman. She'll be missed.
