Unexpected Snow Day

13 February 2024: For complicated and boring reasons, having campus close all day today when we got more snow than expected is not ideal. 

At the same time, it meant about six fewer hours of meetings that I had to go to.

Then my 11:00 a.m. dentist appointment got canceled and the whole darn day opened up. 

So...I powered through my next entry (admittedly a short one) and it's done. 

February 13 and two entries done for this month. Feels very good and the vibes of this whole week have taken a change since yesterday.

At the same time, I am lowkey bummed to be plan-less on Galentine's Day. I just wish I had more "hanging out" friends. It bums me out--enough that I don't even like to say it out loud. (Hilariously, "I Can't Make You Love Me" is playing on Pandora as I type this.)

But if I work on it for a bit, I can remind myself of the good vibes that I wrote about above and of the fact that I do have a couple gals here to hang with. Well, Jo, anyway. (BabyCat also lives here.) In a little bit, I'll finish the rest of my work up here in the office and head downstairs to chill with them both. Today, that and a completed entry is enough. 

Galentine's Day: Part Two

13 February 2016: Saturday's good thing was another no-brainer--celebrating Galentine's Day with another group of friends. This time, I even had a waffle. Leslie Knope would approve.

Galentine's Day: Part One

12 February 2016: I celebrated Galentine's Day a bit early with two good friends by having dinner at Waffle House. (Wish I had taken a piture, but the gif below will have to do.) Despite having to drive through some nasty snow to get there, it was just a great way to end the week.
