The Android 2.1 software development kit was released the other day, and I am geeky enough to be all a-squee about it. Trying to talk myself out of manually loading it on my Droid and waiting for the O/S upgrade push like a good girl.

And it begins. Day 1 of the 2010 Georgia legislative session. Relinquishing my life to the state for the next three months. Gah! I mean “yay.”

OMG! They closed my office early due to the weather. I wouldn’t even qualify the snow that’s coming down right now as “flurries”!

Amused by all the Armageddon-esque weather hubbub here. We’re expecting less than one inch of snow accumulation in the metro area. And there’s talk about crowds at grocery stores stockpiling supplies. Less than one inch wouldn’t even qualify as a “storm” up north. Silly Southerners.

Gah! Georgia’s legislative session doesn’t convene until next week, but it already feels like we’re deep into it. Oof. No more rush bills this morning, PLEASE.

MARTA commute painfully cold this AM. Waited for a train for 20 min in 15 F degrees outside due to a downstream delay. Can’t. Feel. Face.

Wore my new boots I got for Christmas today, and they’re surprisingly painful to walk in over concrete. But they look good. Priorities and all. However, I think long hikes through the urban jungle are off the list for these:
