I'm cold.

I am freezing. The weather is changing and I do not like it. My office still has AC running!

Of course I have a wool shawl with me, and if my hands were working (I haven't knitted in a week) I would be working on my Hue Shift over my lunch break instead of typing things.

Here is a photo of me sitting on the ground waiting for my husband to pick me up after work last Friday with my Hue Shift. I really love how it's working up. Maybe I'll take a better photo of it soon (you know I won't).

We had parent-teach conferences this week and I was shocked to learn that my children are "very quiet" in school. My kids? I'm glad they know how to act in public! Anyway, before the conferences we stopped at Lowes (which has all their Christmas decor out, I do not want to talk about it!) and saw this bird eating the bird seed off the floor inside the store so I took a photo. God bless smart phones!

My lunch is gross (just fat free yogurt and a little honey), and I want coffee. I might make that happen.

eta: I'm still trying to write about my NASA trip, I have a draft and everything, its just not quite right.

What could you do at Penn State?

I love this video, it was produced over the summer. I know some (okay one) of the students in it fairly well. I wrote an article about her, and she is a genuinely nice person. I'm going to be sad when I don't work at this college anymore.

I'm interviewing for another position at the University but each unit inside the University is called a college...so we have the College of Liberal Arts etc. Right now I work at the Eberly College of Science - just some information for those not in the know-
