Snow, sleet, ice. Winter in Wisconsin sure is great. There’s about an inch and a half of solid ice covering almost the entire campus, and it will likely remain there until spring as a lovely undercoat to any snow that fall making every walkway a potential ass bruising. And we’re over the record snowfall count by at least 7 inches as of yesterday.

At least the trees are pretty when they are completely cased in ice. They look like crystal trees with bushy white bunches of snow for leaves.

Apart from the snow, the shitstorm known as midterm season is all but completely raining down upon me. The dual-group projects that make up the bulk of my journalism classes this semester are starting to have pointless waypoint assignments due and the “cooperation” involved is giving me small ulcers, not so much because I have to do all the work but because I don’t seem to operate on the same timetable as normal students (i.e. they do their work on time) and thus I feel like I don’t contribute enough. Guess I’ll have to kick it up a notch or else I’ll have a pack of angry future PR reps after me to destroy my reputation.

Likely no film or game reviews this week as a result of some deadlines, but I am itching to see the vagina-fear-mongering horror flick “Teeth” coming out at Westgate this weekend. May have to slack a bit more beyond the waste of a Sunday known now as  “3 complete discs of Lost.”
