Elephants

I already posted these elephants on the old blog, but just thought I'd post them here too. I wish I would have seen that 60 Minutes elephant segment! It is cold. Too cold, in fact, for me to go to my friend's house for movie night tonight. She called earlier and invited me, but I wimped out. When I got home from work tonight, I just wanted to stay in. Call me party pooper or whatever else would describe someone that won't go out and have fun because the elements get in the way. It really would have been nice to see my friend had it not been so cold. We used to have movie night every Sunday night, but we were both so busy with class this fall, that we had to take a movie night break. Damn cold.

Speaking of the cold and snow, I did something ridiculously idiotic tonight. I got a ride to and from work today, so I have not taken my car out all weekend and it was still covered with snow. So, when I got home from work tonight, I decided to brush off the snow. The whole time I was brushing off this snow, I was carrying my book bag and was completely unaware that snow was drifting into the bag. I didn't open my book bag until about an hour after I came inside and when I did, I discovered, to my horror, that there was a puddle in my bag and several water damaged books. I would say probably about $60.00 to $70.00 worth of damage, in fact. Why did I have to check out so many hard covered books today?!
