Now They Tell Me
Wednesday, it was around 80 degrees. Today, it was in the 30s with sleet, snow, and slush.
Today, it was also announced that we’re having the warmest winter on record. I know who’s getting the Poor Timing award this month.
Also also today, St. Joe’s was open during the day, so I had to slide up City Avenue t oget to class. But the barbecue restaurant I like was closed this evening, so I did not get to drown my sorrows in a platter of pulled pork tonight.
(Can one drown in a platter? If one can, I had every intention of doing so tonight.)
Ah well. Bring on the weekend. Stay warm.
