baby, it's cold outside.

I woke up this morning to find the following outside:




SNOW! A whole 5 inches, I think? I really don't know; I've only gone outside once today, and that was to go to church. However, the streets are clear now, but my exams for tomorrow have been moved back an hour from 8 AM until 9 AM. Although I really would like more sleeping in time, I really just want to get my exams over with. Speaking of...

I should totally be studying for Genetics and Pre-Calc right now, but instead of spending time looking it over, I've been reading (I finished The Virgin Suicides today), watching random episodes of The Office, sleeping, listening to music, and watching a few episodes of CSI:NY off iTunes (I miss Peyton. A LOT.) I know I should be studying, because these first two days of finals are the hardest, but I'd rather be doing other things.

December 16. When you see this, quote Leo McGarry.

LEO: Andrew Jackson, in the main foyer of his White House had a big block of cheese.
TOBY: Huh.
LEO: I am making a mental list of those who are snickering, and even as I speak I am preparing appropriate retribution. The block of cheese was huge - over two tons. And it was there for any and all who might be hungry.
TOBY: Leo, wouldn't this time be better spent plotting a war against a country that can't possibly defend itself against us?
LEO: We can do that later, Toby. Right now I'm talking about President Andrew Jackson.
SAM: Actually, right now, you're talking about a big block of cheese.
LEO: And Sam goes on my list!
SAM: What about Toby?
LEO: I'm unpredictable. Jackson wanted the White House to belong to the people, so from time to time, he opened his doors to those who wished an audience.
MANDY: And then he locked the doors behind them and made them eat two tons of cheese.
LEO: It is in that spirit...
SAM: Hang on. Mandy doesn't go on the list?
LEO: Mandy's new.
SAM: So it's just me... on the list?
LEO: Yes. It is in the spirit of Andrew Jackson that I, from time to time, ask senior staff to have face-to-face meetings with those people representing organizations who have a difficult time getting our attention. I know the more jaded among you, see this as something rather beneath you. But I assure you that listening to the voices of passionate Americans is beneath no one, and surely not the peoples' servants.
JOSH: [walks in with C.J.] Sorry we're late. Is it "Total Crackpot Day" again?
LEO: Yes, it is.
SAM: And let us please note that Josh does not go on the list.

I really need to watch Noel sometime this week. Oh, Leo.
