olivia_suttonHi all,
Well -- I kinda' mentioned this yesterday, but, here we go to explain in detail. I'm an adjunct professor at a technical college, and I was only assigned a single class this term (Dec - Feb). I usually need two just to cover my bills. Anyway, on Friday my boss comes up to me (and he's a really cool guy -- You gotta' like a chair who shows up to work on Halloween in a Star Trek Next Gen uniform, but I digress). But he came up to me and asked me if I could be a paid lab assistant for the database class, and I said yes, so it's cool. So that will help alot, plus I have my normal lab time/tutoring hours.
Now, this is on Saturday mornings, starting this morning - so I had to drive in. It was snowing, hard, and very difficult to see. I got to work OK, tho, and on-time -- actually about half-an-hour early. The lab's like the only room without windows, but when I got back to my desk I could see that it was snowing hard outside. The drive home was awful -- almost as bad as Thursday's. I was supposed to go the Christmas Party for work tonight but I didn't go 'cause I didn't want to drive to the opposite side of town in the snow.
Well -- I can't get an updated weather report, but here's what NOAA has for now.
Temp: 22 F (-6)
Humidity: 82%
Wind chill: 9 F (-13 C)
