I am not a very superstitious person, so I am not going to put any weight on the fact that I woke up last night and the clock read 3:16. In related news, did you know there is a football game with very high (emotional) stakes tonight? Things are going to be TENSE in the […]

It snowed today! The little dusting is, I believe, positively correlated with the comment I made yesterday regarding the unbelievable fact that we had made it through September AND October with no snow.
