“Since when can the weatherman predict the weather, let alone the future?” – Marty McFly, from Back to the Future
It just goes to show that one really has no idea about the weather. It was really warm Friday afternoon. Then the winds picked up and eventually topped out at about 50mph gusts. This blew in a cold front that dropped the air temp 50 degrees in about an hour. All the rain we got was quickly frozen into one sheet of ice that covered everything. The night bottomed out at -10 degrees. Today it warmed up to the teens and has been cold ever since. What a weird winter.
Yesterday, because of the wind and falling branches slash trees, the power went out during class. Our resident professor, Dr. Tom Davis, courageously finished out the last ten minutes of his class in the dark and without a sound system. Pretty interesting day. I worked lunch dishpit, then had the rest of the day off. That evening Nate (my brother) called to have me come work for him, so I got in another 3 hours on the clock.
Today I worked breakfast dishpit, slept, worked tube hill ( a very do-nothing three hours, during which we built a massive fire and stayed warm ), and tonight I worked dishpit again.
More updates as events warrant, but praise to God He is providing for my school bill to payed off, as I am able to work, and the financial aid dept is trying to rustle me up another scholarship, so we will see how it goes.
Peace out.
(Miss you guys)
