I am home, due to the second snow day in two weeks. Crazy.
Really, it would probably have benefited me more to stay home yesterday nursing my cold*, and be able to go to work today, but whatever. Even with the cold, I did put in a fairly productive 10.5-hour day and take care of a bunch of loose ends, so that was good.
*(It was coming on even before![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
arisia, so it's not really con crud. This is why I begged off early from all the parties to sleep as much as possible.)
I do have some work stuff I should do from here, and then I am going to take an hour to clean my filthy kitchen. Not to mention drinking vast quantities of tea.
I had meant to drive out to the Acton Jazz Cafe after shul tonight, to see a 9pm show of the jazz quartet of one of my high school choirmates (from Indiana), who is now a professional jazz saxophonist living in Newport and teaching at URI. However, with the snow, I will have to see if I feel un-lame enough to dig out my car before Shabbat, or if I am just going to take the T to shul and forget it. :-/
One more note: Today (16 Shvat) is the 15th anniversary of my conversion to Judaism. Yowza. :-} I am sponsoring the kiddush attremontstshul tomorrow, in honor of that as well as my get.

Going to shul myself tonight, on the other side of Central Square. ( : If you decide to go to jazz, let me know; I need to get a phone cable anyway. My shul is from 7-8ish, and Mike's folks live one town over from Acton, might be able to drag him along. will send email.
