The Best Monday Ever (so far)

So today was definitely the best Monday I've had at school so far. Actually, now that I think about it, since last week was a school holiday, it's really the only one so far. But no matter. 

Today, I had four classes when I woke up. Then I checked my syllabi and discovered that my first class (at 9:30) was scheduled to be cancelled because she had a conference or something to go to. So back to bed with me. I've got another hour! 

So then I wake up for my next class, shower, brush my teeth, all that jazz, check my email and find that my SECOND class is ALSO cancelled for "personal reasons" of the prof. But no matter, I'll have two more classes, so I trudge to north campus to the Union for lunch and to wait for my early afternoon class (also on north campus). I was pelted with freezing rain and driving winds the entire walk up there. So I settle in with my lunch, open my computer, and it's like the world decided to alert me at once that school was closing. I had several people post statuses about how school was cancelled, then the Borenmeister (OU's President, David Boren) called me (not really personally) to inform me, then I received an email from my school's dean, then from the university's mail service, then a text message from the university. As if all of that wasn't enough (this all happened within the space of 3 minutes), some worker for the Union walked by, placing a small prism-shaped piece of paper on the table saying that classes after 1:30 were cancelled for today. 

In conclusion ... no classes today. Possibly none tomorrow (we'll find out soon). What a great way to start the term. =)

On a sidenote, there's a particularly interesting weather phenomenon in Oklahoma: no matter WHICH direction you're walking, the wind will ALWAYS be blowing AGAINST you. ALWAYS.
