Sunday update

1. The date went well. She's got potential. She's got two jobs like I do, though, and the next time we can see each other is next Sunday.

2. Peter's Inn is one of the coolest, funkiest little restaurants I've ever been to. And the meal I had was the best meal I've had in a long time - rockfish over red cabbage.

3. I've spent much of this weekend writing the boring paper on the face of this earth. I'm trying to hard to get into it, but just can't.

4. I went Christmas shopping this morning to Marshall's, where three of my former students apparently work. Marshall's is the only place I ever buy underwear, and I hadn't been there in a few months, but I decided to put away the underwear I had in my cart because I'm certainly not going to have Chantel ring up my underwear for me.

5. Here's an idea: it's December, how about some snow? Sheesh, I want a snow day.

I'm glad to hear your date went well. Things are looking up!

I'm with you on wishing for snow. Now that I work for a school system, taking hours of work home and feeling underpaid, I feel I deserve some snow days about now. In fact, I demand snow days! And yet, the 10 day forcast only shows temperatures in the 50's and rain ahead. Plus the days get shorter and the kids have more and more colds and stomach bugs. It's too much to bear without a possible snow day on the horizon.

Unfortunately, it hardly ever snows in December in Maryland. We get the majority in January and February, with the occasional March blizzard. If it helps at all, it tends to snow more in those months when we've had a warm fall. We missed school almost the entire month of January one year ('93, I think) because of back-to-back snowstorms and ice storms. That was fun. Until they took away spring break, extended the year by a week, and added 35 minutes to the school day in April and May.
