Man, ain't that the truth! When we get to -7F, that's too cold. Winter should be in the 20s, with a few dips into the teens. Frankly, I'm amazed that wildlife makes it through cold spells like this -- I always feel sorry for the little buggers... Anyway, enough complaining, as I don't have to be outside. Yay!
A pretty boring week so far, and no gaming (other than Poker online), though the Millennium meet is this Saturday, and I'm set to play the new Axis & Allies with Frank Mestrve (sp?). Now, I'm not really a fan of this game, but I was a sucker for the big box, pretty pieces, and the sale at Boulder Games. So I went for it, and need to give it at least one shot... Even if not historical (it isn't), it should be fun -- until Frank starts whining. I'll be refreshing myself with the rules this week...
On the Poker front, I was able to win back > $70 I had lost over the past weeks, so I'm feeling better about that. I need to head out to the casino soon, to play with "live" people, as it's actually easier to do this, as so many folks give away things due to body language (something you can't see online). Maybe I'll do this next month during Niagara Boardgaming Weekend.
Tonight will see Syracuse playing Georgetown in a classic Big East basketball game. When I lived in Virginia, I used to go to the Georgetown home game vs. Syracuse each year. I'm lucky I'm still alive, as those were some tough, inner city crowds. D'oh! This will be a huge test for Syracuse, and I hope they can pass with flying colors.
Finally, the end of the quarter at school is approaching, so I've gotta get all my backlogged grading and recording done. Teaching would be sooooo much more fun without all the administrative bullshit we have to deal with (and grading is the least of my worries here...).

ain't admin stuff fun ?????? :(
Admin stuff can be a pain in the arse. I've spent the last 7 months acting for my boss while he's been on language training. Can't wait for him to get back so I can get back to doing the real work. Mind you, admin work is better than policy work. I'd rather jump in front of a bus than have to do policy work.
I'd rather just teach. :-)
Damn Syracuse was embarrassed last night... :-(
