Winter

So yesterday I took a day off. It is rare that I just "don't go to work" on a Tuesday without any plans, but it was supposed to be warm out, and winter is rapidly approaching. It was 45 and cloudy, and today, back at the office, it is 65 an Sunny. I am constantly reminded in New England that the weather is really not predictable. They are calling for snow on Sunday morning. I have plans to ride to the Vanilla Bean in Connecticut for breakfast. I am not going to cancel. If I cancel, it will be sunny an 75. If I drag my sleepy butt out of bed at 5AM, and hit th road by 6, maybe I'll witness the first snow of the season... Ya just never know.... But at least I will have slept an extra hour.


Now back to writing code....
