I'm melting

Well, not me personally.  But the snow is definitely melting.  Thank goodness.  This means that I will actually get to leave the house and traverse the treacherous terrain that is I-20 and head off merrily to work tomorrow.  Of course, in order to be at work I must first clone myself because I am scheduled to be at both of my jobs tomorrow.  Therefore, since human cloning was still illegal last time I looked into it I will not be at Best Buy tomorrow.  So please, I am begging you, do not ask me about a single electronic device before Thursday when I next make a personal appearance as a Smurf in my uniform.

On an extremely bright note, I am looking forward to working tomorrow.  Sunday is the day where I can actually use my brain and preform some of the duties of a librarian.  Most days I am not allowed to help anyone unless I am checking their books in or out.  I know, crazy job requirements.  Can you imagine not being able to help someone even if you know the answer to their query and just put the item in question on the shelf?  But, that is my job.  Oh well.  You do what you must.

For those of you wondering..I did complete several homework assignments this week. I just could not help myself.  I can not stand procrastination.  It really drives me crazy.  The only thing worse is whining.  No whining is my #1 classroom rule.  And before you ask...yes, I do have a set of classroom rules ready to be put into place.  Now....if I could just find a job.  Maybe with the snow thaw someone who is really a wicked witch in disguise will melt away and I can have her job.  It could happen.  Yea, and flying monkeys could....well, never mind.

Snow Day

It is about 19 degrees here today.  I guess all of my talk about Alaska made Texas extremely jealous and the state weather fairy retaliated.  Lucky us. 

So what does this mean for me?  Well, my three children are home.  My class is cancelled.  And I could not go to work today.  This would normally be cause for celebration.  However, I have homework to do.  Of course, I am practicing the art of procrastination.  Now, normally I am the first person done with an assignment.  In this instance, I do not want to continue with my assignments without first receiving feedback from the first round.  This causes a problem because of the snow cancelling class where I would have gotten my feedback which allowed me to do my next assignments. 

Therefore, I am trapped in a circular conundrum.  Lucky me.
