So, today is the day. Any person from Western New York (or really, any northern state for that matter) can not honestly tell me that this thought has not crossed their mind at one point or another: Has the sun died? Is it really gone forever, because it sure feels like I haven’t seen it in a good 3 months. It’s freezing and gray and snowy and blustery. It’s slushy and icy and slippery. It’s winter, and although I embrace winter and all of it’s freezing attributes, today is the day when I actually wonder if the sun has enough power to eventually thaw this city out. Normally, when it’s a pretty winter day (as it is today) and I have no immediate need to go outside (as I don’t today) I love to look out my window and feel all nice and warm and cozy while standing on the heating vent. Normally, I love sitting infront of the fireplace watching a movie. Normally, I love going sledding. Normally, I think that spring will be here soon and the birds will be chirping and the windows will be open and all that good stuff. But not today. Today is just too darn cold and spring seems so far away. And I really think the sun has packed up and abandoned New York for good. Maybe the taxes were too high.

It seems like the sun will neve shine. The sun really makes a difference. I am on the journey of the research paper, which I know you just finished. It is a dry, long, unit, but it is a must! Students look at me like I have three heads and I know they aren’t working on it when they are out of class. Any hints on how to monitor their work schedule?
