After checking three sites, I discovered that school is indeed canceled until next week. This is like an unexpected Spring Break; they might take away our real Spring Break on account of this. That doesn't seem fair, though. It's not our fault that there's two feet of snow on the ground and the plows only got around yesterday. I heard from Stephanie's mom that PG and Montogomery Counties are going to petition to not have us make up these days, because it's a state emergency. That makes sense, but it doesn't sound likely.

I did the extra credit questions earlier. They weren't too hard, and I could probably use the extra points. Nothing like a little grade-padding to begin to make up for massive procrastination. Still working on my narrative. It might actually be good this time. I got a great idea from my piano teacher (and her husband -- he's like the assistant or something, and he doesn't even play piano -- that's enough for a short rant, really). I tried prewriting this one, and it's coming along okay. I started to ramble, and I think she said it can't be over 3 pages, so I had to do some quick editing. If it's good enough, I might put it up online.

Speaking of online, I'm going to go code The Fall of a Dark Lord after I finish blogging. Now that I know the italics will show up, I have to get them all in there. And, since the new versions will pop up in the Recently Updated list, maybe we'll get some more traffic. Yay-ness.

Last night it ocurred to me that the snow kept all the mail trucks away. With the volume of mostly-worthless college mail I get, I expected a pile today. But no, only one letter. I am surprised.

Hope has a spiffy new layout. I really feel like changing this, but not much. I love the structure, so maybe I'll just change the colors. And perhaps I should look into getting another page to put my fanlisting buttons on. They shouldn't take that long to load, and the important part (the blog) comes up first cause it's just text. I just love them so much! Grr.

Okay, off to code a bit before Birds of Prey comes on. I kinda like that show, but I understand that they're cancelling it. At least they're giving it a proper ending, not like Glory Days. I was like, when's the next episode coming on?, and then I found out they cancelled it due to low ratings. That sucks. Still going to watch the finale, though.

Greg: Sorry your day was so non-spiffy. On the plus side, I managed to get some work done today, which leaves me more time to talk to you... tomorrow. Don't call; our "at-home date" was awesome, but it is very difficult to watch tv and talk at the same time. My ears don't know how to multi-task. I might be back around 10, though. (And don't even say it -- we already discussed that you will live.)
