March 20 and mother nature has decided the pretty green grass in my lawn needed some cosmetic work, so she's coated it with powdered sugar. At times, the monstrosity that is descending from the sky isn't as fine, but more like mini-snow balls. It doesn't really matter anyway because i'm stuck inside all day grading lab notebooks. as it stands, i decided to take a short break to write about my woes as a teaching assistant. who am i kidding? i like teaching labs. ok.... back to work!
