We didn't go to Breck for the weekend. We've gotten about a foot of snow in the last 3 hours and they closed the interstate up the mountain, so even if we would have wanted to go we couldn't have. Guess I'll just curl up and catch up on Lost since I'm 7 episodes behind.

Today of All Days

Today of all days, it decides that it's going to supposedly dump 10-20" of snow in Denver and even more in the mountains. See, I'm disappointed because we have a trip planned up to Breckenridge for the weekend. Got the room reserved. Got packed up. The car is ready to go. And now we don't even know if we should go. Is it worth the risk with icy roads and snow in the mountains? I'll be so disappointed if we don't go. We haven't been to the mountains in months and I've been so looking forward to this weekend. Why this weekend did it have to decide to have one last storm before spring?

No Voice

There are some days when I wish I worked in a cubicle and didn't have to interact with anyone. Today is one of those days. Not because I don't like my job, but because my voice is gone. I'm not sick and haven't been yelling; I just don't have a voice. Teaching must be one of the hardest jobs to have when you can't speak. Kids are loud - they can't hear you. Kids ask a question - and you can't reply back unless it's absolutely silent in the room (yeah, like that ever happens). Kids are being naughty and you can't really say anything because they won't hear you anyway. Being voiceless takes away your power in the classroom. Maybe I should have stayed home.
