Snow day today! We got 1/4 inch of snow. Really. There was some black ice this morning, but why cancel school? Virginia is a strange, strange place.
So what did I do in my free time? I read a book, went to the library and got more books (one can never have too many books). I practiced Beethovan's 9th Symphony, watched the news, read the paper while I drank my coffee, and I made beef stew. I've never made beef stew before. It came out pretty good. I haven't actually eaten it yet. I will tomorrow. Stew is always better the second day, so why not wait for the second day to eat it?
In other news, did I tell you all that my computer crashed? Well, after spending many hours on the phone to India, and to my brother, and bribing my boyfriend, it is finally mostly fixed. I lost everything on the hard drive. Fortunately, I didn't actually have much on the hard drive. But, then, a week later, my printer died. Grrrr. Yet another HP product that has failed me miserably.

Perhaps the administration heard that 'snow' is a street name for cocaine and got confused when they heard the weather report.
That puts an entirely different spin on the idea of a snow day.
