when science looks upon nature one often sees love and admiration in its eyes

Brother mine,

Being a public schoolteacher in America doesn’t have many perks. But one of them is snow days! They are like little gifts from the universe saying, “Here is a free day: take a break, sleep in, relax. Watch a movie or read a book. You deserve it.”

Sometimes they call school off the day before if there is a Winter Weather Warning for the next day. Those are great, but the best ones are when you wake up in the morning to a surprise text that says school is closed for the day “due to inclement weather”. That’s when I do a little dance of celebration at 5:30am alone in the dark kitchen before going back to bed.

Today is Sunday, and there is a blizzard warning issued for most of the state. Schools all around have already closed for tomorrow, including my school, Poynette. So no little early morning dance.

I don’t suppose you experienced anything like that as a university teacher? But now for you, every day is a day off. :)

But for me, tomorrow I will have an extra day to read, listen to music, work on my computer hobbies. Thank you, weather gods. Vale.

in Korea it's "White Day" where the guy is supposed to give white chocolate to their sweetheart. this holiday was invented by a Japanese confectionary company in the 70s and used to involve marshmallows, to return the favor of the ladies on Valentine's Day who give chocolate to their fellas. Next month is Black Day where those without sweethearts cry and eat jajangmyeon (noodles in black sauce um um). The month after that is Yellow Day where everyone stays in bed all day and eats pumpkin porridge. The month after that is Pink Day where we cut zigzag edges on our undershirts. The month after that is Grey Day, where we all stare at the sky and ask is it going to rain today? even if it's clear. The month after that is Purple Day where we burn effigies of Barney the Dinosaur in mall parking lots. The month after that is Red Day where we all get sunburns and smack each other on our bare sunburned backs and say "Happy Red Day!" (you smack on the word red) and laugh yourself silly as you run away. The month after that is Blue Day, where the pervs all go out and flash their junk on the street. The month after that is Green Day where we all blast Dookie out our windows all day. The month after that is Brown Day where we all shit the bed.  The month after that is Silver Day where old people get free everclear shots at every bar in Korea. The month after that is Valentine's Day again.

for Misun and I, it's Pi Day.
