olivia_suttonHi all,
Well, it was actually sunny tonight. Bright and sunny with gorgeous blue skies. And instead of working on my class tomorrow, I spent a whole lot of time on my computer reading fanfic, and working on my own. Oh, well, at least I got something accomplished. And since dinner (well, ok, I watched one episode of Thunderbirds, but it's research for my fanfic - yeah, that's the ticket) so since like 7:00pm then I've been deligently working on my work for class. All of chapter three's slides are done, including illos and pics, and part of chapter four is done. Plus I figured I'd just print the lab sheets from the curriculum. So I did get work done, just not on a 9 to 5 schedule. Which suits me just fine.
But I figured pizza would be good for dinner - and I found out just how cold it was, having forgotten than clear blue skies in winter means no cloud cover to keep it actually warmer - so it's freezing. At dinner time the Weather channel had our local temp as 20 F. Also, the drive was an interesting challenge since all the water and slush on the road from yesterday was frozen solid. (And getting around yesterday was no fun - the expressway was a parking lot. I eventually got off and took surface streets home. Probably slower, but at least I was moving,)
Well - as I doing in winter, here's the weather, right now from NOAA.
Temp: 22 F (- 6 C) -- Hey, it's gone UP.
Humidity: 71 %
Wind speed: SE 3 MPH
Wind chill: Not listed (probably the same as temp with such a low wind speed).
