My Mind is not here

I don't know where my mind has gone. But it is not here. Maybe it is still sleeping. I should still be sleeping. There is nothing like sleep to get rid of a blue funk, to avoid homework and to help you stay awake when you have to go to class much later. I should not have stayed up till after 2 am. But I did. Remarkably, I have remained awake all day. I think it was the black tea. I have discovered it to taste good and have caffiene. Works quite well since I cannot have coffee with icecream for a while. I found an interesting read online to keep myself amused during history. Most of my fellow blogonauts have entered a hiatus of writing. I have a new blogonaut friend. Hooray. But that sad part of it all is that I stayed awake for all of class and didn't miss anything. Atleast I don't think I did. Just another discussion about just another atheist philosopher. (Thanks for that observation, Jon.) Now in Morality, the teacher likes to talk. And I can blog. We are supposed to be doing a presentation right now. But he's talking, and killing class time, so I think I'll be ok with it. Somehow, I think Plato is not gonna have as much of an impact here as it did at TAC. I've gotten what I need out of it, and no one will get much out of this class either. Happy Plato and Aristotle reading day!

Rain in February?

-It’s turned to snow now. Yesterday was nice weather. Colorado type weather. Warm, not windy, made inside feel stifling and hot, and windows were open all over. The fog moved in, and then the rain clouds. By the time I walked outside this morning, the ground was soaked and the rain continued all day. Sometime this evening, it turned to sleet, and now its snow. White, fluffy snow, coating everything, driving down through the glow of the streetlights and flies up your nose as you breathe in. Underneath all this white fluffy stuff is a layer of slush and water. It makes it fun for sliding around corners in your car, but sliding with the soles of your shoes isn't so easy. The snow is too wet, too heavy, and half the time it's not snow. If it cools down tonight, all the ice that forms will be fun in a bad way. But if it gets more snow and is all nice and fluffy, then snowboarding at Mt. Kato is going to be a grand adventure! We shall see. But it’s still odd to have seen rain in Minnesota in February, especially above all the dead brown grass and dwindling dirty snowdrifts.
