i'm really not trying to be difficult

I was like a little kid on a snow day this morning: up at 5:30am looking for school closings. And yes! Look! Every single school in Holland is closed! So the library is SURE to close, right?

Wrong.

We are an essential service. Like police. And firemen. We are here for the information emergency! Like checking out 15 Dora the Explorer dvds allowing you to ignore your kids while they're home from school! Like providing the very important online porn service!

I'm actually not all that bitter. The roads weren't even really that bad by the time I had to go to work. I am, however, officially 100% sick of snow. It is ridiculous. I shoveled this morning at 6:30am and I have no doubt I'll be shoveling tonight at 6:30pm. We're losing patio space to the mountains of snow. Enough.

In other news:

I'm the proud owner of a MetaFilter account. Hell, yes.

Not a fan of Bonnie and Clyde thus far though Faye Dunaway is GORgeous.

Anna Karenina keeps getting better and better.

Coconut flan with really strong butter rum sauce is delicious.

Bill Clinton is starting to get on my nerves.

Dennis Kucinich is dropping out and that makes me sad in my heart.

"Remember the Mountain Bed" has left my brain.

Josh Ritter has filled the space.

Tonight I'll be drinking a biiiiig frozen margarita and eating something smothered in mole sauce.

Tomorrow is Friday and that is good.
