  banana nut muffins did not, as a rule, excel in the art of hand-to-hand

  Too funny! At any rate, thank you all for your
  opinions/suggestions, as per my previous post. I will weigh my options
  and decide. I’m thinking that $4000 IS a lot of money, and I DO
  hate student loans. But but but….I really want to know the stuff. I
  don’t think I want this as a career, so it’s just sort of….in the
  interest of self-improvement. Which, is invaluable, non? Hmmm. We shall
  see.

  The snow is melting and the weather is warm…ish. However, weather
  forecasts predict three days of snow and rain/snow starting on Friday.
  Sounds fun? No. I didn’t think so, either. It sounds like perfect
  conditions for bumper cars, but, like….in real cars. On real roads.
  And like, real intestines and other sundry innards spill’t upon the
  cold and unyielding arctic terrain.

  All this to say (shout out to Paul Alford), I am not looking forward to
  it! Where are you, Spring? How are we to “gather ye rosebuds while ye
  may,” be there no rosebuds? Herrick would turn over in his grave.
  Alternately, Punxsutawney Phil apparently turned over the wrong way
  upon exiting his burrow. You lying skeez! Filthy rodent! I’m going to
  make a hat out of that perditious groundhog, I swear! If it’s the last
  thing I do! Actually, the last thing I do will probably be glancing
  over at my own post-rain/snow-car-crash-disembowelment, and wondering why I never followed my dreams to Monterey.

  “Gather ye disembowelment[s] while ye may….”

  Meh.
