Winter Finally Here

I was getting worried when the Texan Blogmeister was reporting icy conditions in The Lone Star State while kids here were trying to convert their sleds into paddle boats, but in the last few days the temperatures finally fell, like they should. Darn global warming.

We celebrated, as dignified, grown-up twenty-somethings do, by flinging ourselves down local hills on "bum-sleighs", hooting. Image above is manly bum sleigh with kitty motif.

Uni has had it's ups and downs. I elected not to sit an exam in a subject that won't come around again until August 2008 - was totally unprepared, tired and fatalistic. Even so, if I get graded "passed" on a paper I've to hand up by Wednesday, and get through another exam in March, I should have 19 credits from last semester - not bad factoring in the full-time work. I'm hoping to rack up 20-25 from this semester - there's a 3 credit book exam available in computer law - all the DRM and Open Source stuff I like to rant about - marvellous.

I'm down to working 3 days a week, which should give me more time, and lead to less all-nighters.
