Today I walked to school two miles uphill in the snow.
...yeah.
In other news, my research project of small joy and no wonder is delayed because of snow (I can't get my adviser to advise or indeed, sign off on the project as no one knows where he is) I am living in fear that I will tip headfirst down Headington Hill after dark, and no one knows where lectures are or classes are or if they're happening. Lectures at Harcourt and Wheatley are cancelled, not here, which is roundly annoying because the lecture I have today finishes after dark and ye gods, that hill is steep. Obviously, no bike, but I was slipping and sliding coming up. But it's that or live here forever, as the buses aren't running. It's an ill-omened day. I came up here to check my email and there was a man in the main reception having a heart attack. He was being helped - there were people gathered around, first-aid boxes and paramedics rushing in the doors - and it would've been crass to stop and stare, so I kept on moving, but, god. Yes.
Waaah. Don't wanna work. Wanna go out and play.
...yeah.
