    Bad weather? Eh.

    So the response on how to handle crappy weather was essentially, “Make sure you plan for bad weather in making it to your destination.” They also said that if DePauw was closed, they’d call/email me sometime after 08:00 to tell me the interview was canceled. …It’s a 40 mile drive in (potentially) snow and ice. I won’t be reachable by 08:00; in fact, I will probably have been on the road for an hour already. Frustrated sigh. We’ll see, I suppose.

    Nervous sound here

    Tomorrow is my Teach for America interview. I’m nervous and excited. Very nervous. But there’s a winter storm warning in effect for this half of the state.

    Scrub, scrub, scrub

    So the comb coils weren’t working for me. They were too delicate to wash/rinse with the frequency that I need to, given how often I workout. So, I’m fro’ing it again.
