she's here
not raining quite yet, but the sky is a very ominous shade of grey and the wind is pretty windy for the time of day. [note: voice in my head says "grey and day rhyme. i'd move day to the second sentence."]
am off in a moment to my first class. i can drive and park close to the building, thus avoiding the two streets i have to cross, the flight of stairs i have to climb, and the sidewalk crowded with freshmen i ordinarily have to negotiate along the way. i'll still have two flights of stairs to go down to get to the room when i get there, and two flights back up again to get out. the building's elevator requires a key to operate, which on the one hand makes sense -- but on the other hand makes no sense at all, that an able-bodied professor with an office on the third floor can use the elevator, but a student on crutches with a class in the basement can't.
i will then proceed to the library to meet first with a student and then with a classmate. i might get a nap in between these meetings. then another class, and then i'll see what the storm is doing over land. i may go or i may not -- either way, unless the power's already out, i'll let y'all know.
oh, and: in yesterday's mail i got a thank-you note from the leasing agent who showed me an apartment on saturday. i like the building better and better. :-)
