This weather is ass. However, there is some small good news. From KU website's main page today:
"...employees whose work shift begins after 6 a.m. have one extra hour to report to work and may leave one hour early this afternoon." That means a six hour work day for me, baby.
\m/ >_< \m/
I was fully awake after I checked the message line for a snow day (864-SNOW!), so instead of going back to bed for another hour, I took the opportunity to use shoveling for my exercise for the day. Luckily, the snow was light and dry since there was probably six inches of it. I was careful to stretch out my back afterward. I want no repeats of last year's two-days-of-invalidism after overexerting myself with the snow-clearance. That sucked donkey balls.
After nearly two weeks of reasonable temperatures, my office is freezing again. This building is a constant adventure and mystery. The main mystery being why the hell they didn't tear the damn thing down when they had the excuse. So much for that million-dollar air-handling system! There was an F/O guy in the ceiling on third floor when I arrived this morning. God knows what's wrong now.
My words for January: Action and Discipline.
In addition to the re-established morning exercise (rawr!), I shall get my blood moving at least twice a day at the office--either a brisk walk around campus (weather permitting) or a run on the Wescoe stairs (which I'll be doing until probably, oh, May). I'm going to keep a sharp eye on what I eat, and when. I slid into snacky mode during the holidays. That's getting cut off right now, I'm telling you what. The wheat-free thing is not happening, though. Reading my "food issues" and "health" posts (boy, tags sure are handy), I was reminded of my brush with possible diverticulitis last year. I amended "wheat-free" to "minimal and 100% whole wheat" when I have it. Sugar is still off the table. I'm allowing myself one treat meal per week, which is, IMO, quite liberal. I'll be tracking progress in my (private) visual journal, instead of burdening you all with that particular information. Yes. You're welcome.
