Oh the weather outside is frightful....

While tomorrow I'm sure will look like a winter wonderland, today has been a grey, sleet filled day. Warning signs began to appear around noon as grey clouds began to edge their way into my bedroom view. Later, as I hurried to Willard Hall to retrieve my wallet which had been handed in to the Campus Lost and Found, the first sleety drops began to fall.

My wallet, which had fallen from my lab as I left my cab thursday night, contained incredibly valuable shiat, such as my Green Card, license, and credit card. If only I had been able to subdue my desire for Taco Bell at 3 in the morning...if only. Anywho, a mister Michael McCabe is now my biggest hero. Happier than hell, I immediately set out to purchase a new wallet, as mine had been tragically disfigured during its disappearance.

As I entered highway 36, the sleet changed into a think wet snowfall, making it impossible to see farther than 2 car lengths ahead. I arrived safely at good old TJMAXX, and emerged 20 minutes later with a sweet new wallet and a pack of socks. In the short 20 minutes while I had been inside pondering over the smaller than hoped wallet selection, the weather had worsened. I drove, hands gripping the wheel, back in an awkward, upright, about to freak out, for a record 30 minutes; the drive should have taken ten. Since arriving back at my apartment, the snow has continued to fall without so much as a slight pause. Hopefully tomorrow will be welcomed by a blue sky!
