Today is the first day that I will admit it is now 'winter'. They started playing Christmas songs on the oldies radio station a week or two before Halloween which I adimently refused to listen to- who wants to be reminded of snow and ice when it's still sunny outside with beautiful foliage on the trees or it's a crisp 60 degree day? There are still two more holidays between then and Christmas...no Christmas music for me thank you. Today however- despite Thanksgiving still being a day away and thus Christmas not quite yet the next major holiday in my calendar- I had to pull out the ice scraper out of my trunk to scrape and brush off the ice that had coated my front and back windshields. I also had my car running, trying to heat up the glass from the inside while scraping but alas, it is indeed winter and takes a good 5 minutes before the vents start blowing out warm or hot air rather than a cool breeze.
It's Boston- it's winter :) I'm okay with listening to Christmas music now
On another note: the first day I get to work before 8:30 everyone is out of the office. I am the only person in the whole building today that I can find. Yes, I am required to be here even without any students or faculty around. Maybe after finishing up my last few projects before break I'll spend some time reorganizing the receipts or making new labels for all the files that might be worn out or smugged after years' worth of fingerprints on them. Lunch break will definitely be one spent at the gym- I need a little something to break up this day :)
