Soon I’ll be talking about nothing but the weather, and this will officially become the most boring blog ever

I’m at Starbucks right now working on a Medieval Lit paper. Ok, right NOW I’m only “working,” since clearly I’m not writing about Beowulf at this very moment. Except…no, now I’m meta-writing about Beowulf, in that I’m writing about writing about Beowulf. But when I wrote THAT, I was really meta-meta-writing about Beowulf. Ha, finally, a true statement. Dork.

Houston had some fairly dramatic flooding last night on account of all the rain yesterday, and the storms don’t show much sign of letting up before tomorrow. An hour ago I was tempted to run home and grab my camcorder, but I convinced myself that I ought to stay here and work. The swirling rain and wind are pretty spectacular right now, and I’m regretting that decision. Stupid priorities. Sheesh.

EDIT (3:11) — The power just blinked off a couple times. I’m plugging in my computer to suck up all that precious electron juice while I still can. Upside: I bet if the power conks out here they’ll need help eating some of those pastries and whatnot out of the cooler.

EDIT2 (3:45) — On second thought, I have no surge protector. This is possibly a bad plan. Must write paper. Will risk it.
