Today's one of those wonderful days! Thankfully, it seems like this autumn's hot streak is finally over---today it was gloomy and a bit chilly. I started my day off with some reading---Miss Mackenzie by Anthony Trollope---and it fit with the day's atmosphere, I think. I'm just waiting for a morning where I wake up and it's storming so hard I stay in bed and read until I have to get up to go to class!

I had my scholarship job today. I was one minute late, so the person before me had closed the desk up already. We're supposed to wait five minutes or so for the next person to show after our shift ends, but I can understand. Anyway, the desk I work at has a little keycode thing since some of the stuff is sensitive, and you're supposed to lock it when nobody's there. I tried entering my code in any way I could think of, with the star, the pound sign, and all, but no dice. I eventually had to message in our Discord chatroom, and one member private IM'd me her code. And, what do you know? It worked perfectly! So I hope my code works next time. I'm just glad nobody needed me to get something from inside the desk before I figured it out!

Then I went to the library and did some homework---and got distracted. I'm awfully tired today, even though I slept in! But I got some work done, at least, and so I don't feel entirely unsatisfied with myself---I just have to write another entry and a half in this fictional journal project thingy before class Monday morning.

And then I got to go back to my room and curl up with a good book again! This one was about Charlotte Bronte---one of my favourite authors. That one, I really lost track of time with.

I'm supposed to call Blue and Green any minute now (we were supposed to call at 7, but they're both occupied) and then have a (very) late dinner with another friend afterward. I also want to get some crocheting in before bed! It's a perfect day to crochet, and since I'm making a hat it's fitting for the cooling weather! So TTFN whilst I go... do something until I call my friends? TTFN!!

So it's finally rainy! The past few days, it's been rather annoyingly sunny, but suddenly, this afternoon it's super gloomy and it's supposed to rain rather heavily, so I'm a happy camper.

Also, in terms of Facts of Life, we've reached the Cloris Leachman/Beverly Ann years. During the season 8 premiere, when Mrs Garrett was telling each of the girls what they taught her, I literally sobbed. Also, I think they may be skipping a few episodes as thet run through all the seasons. They've also seemed to quit cutting random parts of scenes in favour of speeding most of the episodes up noticably, and I don't know if it's better or worse.

Also, speaking of missing parts of episodes, I'm watching the show on satellite and conveniently, the satellite started having weather issues just in the middle of this last episode. Oh well, I can just wait until they show it again or buy the DVDs on Amazon. That was the last episode of Facts of Life they're airing for the day anyway, so I guess I'll just watch some Full House or something on Hulu. Sitting on the couch with a quilt, writing my blog and watching old TV shows as it rains outside - how cozy!

Also, since when is Shaquille O'Neal in so many ads? I don't know if it's something that's always happened and I've just noticed recently or if it's only started happening recently, but it seems like he's in a ton of commercials. He's in a Frosted Flakes/Frosties ad, as well as some insurance company's ad. At this rate, I figure it's only a matter of time before Shaquille O'Neal is unescapable.

Anyways, I wanna go enjoy the coziness, so I'll talk to you all later. Bye!
