Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! (Reprise)

Howdy, folks! I woke up this morning to somewhat of a winter wonderland. (My lil' neck of the woods is blanketed by a thin layer of snow atm. BTW, the title of this post is in reference to my Dec. 2, 2008, post of the same title. Y'all can check it out in the archives. It's not very interesting, though.) Anyway, I'm in the process of wrapping up yet another hectic semester and preparing for the holidays. Speaking of which, I learned last night that my dad, an endearingly (and enduringly!) eccentric character, is boycotting the rampant materialism and commercialization of the season this year. Whatever! According to my uncle, it's time to break out the Festivus tree. LOL! Well, I've got a busy day ahead of me (in the form of a meeting and back-to-back English and reading classes), so I'm signing off now. Peace, love, & happiness in all of life's endeavors.
