Snow! + A Long Week

Yes, it's been snowing today and tonight (the pic on the right is actually from like a month ago though), although I doubt the accumulation will be around for long. I just realized awhile ago that Kentucky--well, at least Eastern Kentucky--hasn't had a blizzard since around Christmas '95/New Year's '96. Where's the blizzard? It's so overdue! I suppose I could just be bitching, as I became too accustomed to sit-on-my-ass days in high scool on account of "snow" (aka frost on the ground), and I'm not quite 100% used to almost NEVER getting days off in college. Oh well. The snow is still pretty while it's here.

In other news, the past week (or has it been two since I've updated?) has been pretty crazy--so many things going on--hence the reason why I can't update as frequently as I did when I first signed up. But it's okay, my blog has kind of turned into a stress reliever/time killer now. Anyway, on to the random news/thoughts:

  1. This has to be the most random thing, but... you know the Spanish siesta, the time when workers head home at mid-day for lunch and an afternoon nap? Despite the fact that it's supposely becoming an "endangered species" according to BBC due to the increased number of multinational corporations who have deemed it "unproductive," I still hope that the tradition doesn't die. In fact, the longer I'd been in college, the more awesome it sounded. I'd like nothing better than to be able to come back to my apartment in the middle of the day in order to eat decent, healthy food that doesn't cost a damn fortune and then follow up with a good snooze.

I'm so lazy, I'll finish this later.
