Please and Thank You (and Sorry)

I didn't attend my Computer Ethics lectures this week – it was one of those weeks – and today I got an email from one of my group members asking A) if I'm still alive, and B) have I taken a look at out project proposal because my tasks and timeline are in there. I hadn't taken a look at the project proposal; it was submitted while I was away, and I was in no mood to do work while I as on break. Bah. "Mood". "Feelings". "One of those weeks". Ridiculous! I'm a week and a half behind, so it's time to start pulling some delicious all-nighters. I'm excited because I'm in charge of the database stuff. I've forgotten how to do database stuff because that class was ages ago, but I really enjoyed it then, so it should be fun now (assuming I can find my notes).

There was a blizzard warning earlier today, but it recently changed into a "snowfall warning" of 10-20 cm. I'm feeling a combination of relief and disappointment with a touch of incredulity. Relief: I can go food shopping. Disappointment: I would have been prepared for this blizzard and would not have gone out in search of a second guitar for Guitar Hero 2. A touch of incredulity: 10-20 cm of snow merits a warning? Really? Is it all falling at once, like Thor pulls a chain and it all gets dumped at once?
