I just finished marking my final grade reporting sheets. I'm done!!! Grades are due at 10am tomorrow. It feels really good to be on top of a deadline for once.
And then it's time to PAR-TAY! (Er...I mean...work on my dissertation.) Winter quarter starts January 5th.
Also: OMG snow in Seattle! The buses had to bust out their tire chains and everything. (Yeah...it's nothing compared to the kind of snowfall I was used to in Michigan and Vermont, but Seattle also doesn't have the snowplows and salt trucks because it snows so seldom--and it's a really hilly city. I know all this, but it's still very odd to see a huge Metro bus with its back tires all chained up when there's only an inch of snow on the ground.)

The view from our front window at about 11am this morning. (There is still about this much snow on the grass.)
