The Coffee House

[waday]

The last day of the semester before we all go on break for a week, and I have a 2-hour meeting.

Morning hosers. 4.5 hours of chaos today, and I’m free for 10 days.

The current forecast is for 2-4 inches of snow Christmas Eve into Christmas Day. I’m not sure the last time that happened around here (where it actually snowed on Christmas).

I told Princess she could stay home today if she wanted. They do absolutely nothing on the half day before holiday break. I believe the movie Trolls is on the agenda. These are HS freshmen! Selfishly, since I have the day off I didn’t want to have to get up early and drive her to school lol. She wants to go however because they’re all going to a friends after school for a Secret Santa swap so I am up and ready to go.

Hosers, I am in the middle of one of my 3-day headaches, and I have a 2-hour meeting tomorrow morning. The last day of the semester before we all go on break for a week, and I have a 2-hour meeting. With a migraine.

Yeah yeah yeah, first world problems, I know, but still, jeez, what the hell, universe?

Oh yeah. I spent my before-student time making 400 Polar Express tickets.

You only had to make one ticket, the 'puter did the remaining 399.

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. 37 jammin' degrees this morning. Mary Lou got up with Gary and turned on the heater. First time this year the heater was turned on. Miss Maggie stood her ground and sniffed the air. Sweet winter for Mary Lou and Leo. Jammin' freezing for those with normal nervous systems. Hot chocolate for Gary. Gary is spending more time cupping his hands around the mug than sipping.

Got the truck buttoned up this morning. Got up at 5:00, put Gary's coffee in an old thermos, and got to it. Took me 2.5 hours to get it back together. No more check engine light. Supposed to be off today but driver's lift gate isn't working, almost there, 2 hour drive. Once that's done, I'm gonna try and shoot a little town near by with my fujifilm ga645zi. Probably stop by the plant as well since I'll be close. I have to work Tuesday & Wednesday, then hopefully be off the rest of the year.

Not the most pleasant of nights. Temperature isn't that bad but there's a heavy drizzle causing a dampness in the air, which makes the joints ache. Doesn't help matters that the cloud deck is at 500' according to the news, and we're just under the 1k mark, can't see your hand in front of your face outside. On top of that I think I may be officially coming down with a cold. Looks like an Advil kind of night.

A lovely day here. In the 30's at dawn and in the upper 60's this afternoon. Somewhat overcast, but when the sun broke through the warmth made you happy just to be alive.

Dave need not awaken at 4am tomorrow.
However he did today. Very soon it'll be lights out. Good night y'all. Sleep well.
