I love getting up super early in the morning and waiting for a maintenance guy and finding out now that he already left and told that I wasn't here. Because I was.
Not that I really wanted to leave the house, since there is lots of snow outside. AGAIN. They say there might be even more this week... I'm taking the subway for the shortest trips with this weather. I made the mistake of walking back home yesterday. A very short trip, but it was snowing, the floor was slippery and of course it gets SO COLD and windy on bridges... The city looked entirely grey yesterday. Very ugly.
Today, while stuck at home waiting (and hiding from the snow), I watched the first episode of BBC's
The impressionists, as
lennongirl recommended it. And I feel SO smart watching it because I KNOW THESE THINGS. Not all the details of course, but a lot of it. Although it's not the era I'm most qualified in, it feels quite historically accurate to me. And makes me want to paint, which reminds me I'm out of paper and my class starts again on Thursday.
Oh and since I haven't said it yet :
HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone. I hope 2010 will be sweet to you !
