I'm having the greatest day!!!!!

I woke up as I always do in the buttcrack of pre-dawn, braced the nipple detroying winds, stood at the outdoor subway station with a bunch of mopes, our feet sloshing in other people's saliva (seriously, there's more spit on the ground at our station than there is on the set of a gangbang.) Then it's time to stand (never get the chance to sit) on a crowded subway car for a half-hour, then get out, climb the stairs and walk two blocks through an unpleasant part of chinatown that smells like weird asian herbs, homeless people and feet. Then I get on another train, ride for another half hour (sometimes I even get to sit down!) and get out at columbus circle, walk three and a half blocks in the cold weather, pick up some stuff from my office and go to my classroom to begin class.

BUT WAIT!!!!! Jesus died today and no one reminded me!!!!! Classes were cancelled, of course. Oh, dear.



post-script: I decided life isn't so bad, and went and ordered some breakfast to eat in my office while I caught up on work. I arrive to find that the geniuses gave me no fork and knife. I am now in the process of trying to eat eggs without a fork and spread jam on my toast without a knife. It's getting good.
