Further Adventures of SNOW DAY

I'm baking chocolate coffee cookies with a friend now. Once they're out of the oven, we (her, her boyfriend, my roommate and me) are going to go out for pancakes at the all-day diner. We already had a snowball fight made a snowman and snowbaby (with chocolate chips for eyes and buttons and dry pasta for nose). We're acting like five-year-olds, even me. Hey, it's been two years since I've seen snow.

It's nice to have a day off without being too hot for words, worrying about heat exhaustion, and getting gas and food, and wondering when the power will come back on (as was the case with our hurricane days). Even the prospect of making this day up doesn't dint my enjoyment. And yes, I do plan to do some actual writing today, but after lunch. And possibly with a judicious dose of coffee cookies.

I'm jealous that you had off today to enjoy the snow.

My principal wouldn't even let the kids go outside to play in the snow because she was afraid of the phone calls she'd get from the parents, and, of course, Chicago. That disturbs me on more levels than I can explain right now.

The Saints had better beat Chicago tonight. That's all I have to say.
