It's another gray, rainy day in England-land.
Yesterday was a sunny, but coldish day. I drove my lil' Bug for the first time over to the University of York to meet with the co-coordinators for the MSc program in Marine Environmental Management. I even wore my sunglasses! The meeting went well. Nothing crazy or unexpected, I'd done my homework beforehand and there were no surprises.
When I got into my car after our meeting was over, looked up at the temperature indicator, and saw it was 51 degrees! My lower limit for putting the top down is 50, and the sun was still shining, so down the top went! Woot! I hadn't driven in England-land, and now I was going to drive with the top down!
Unfortunately, my joy was short-lived. About five miles down the road the clouds started to build up, and the temperature dropped to 41 degrees. But I didn't care. I was on a two-lane highway, and speeding along at about 80 with some lovely Dethklok playing in the background. I did give up about 20 miles later, pulled over to the side of the road and put the top up, but still, I was thrilled.
Not much else interesting going on. DH and I are going to London for a long weekend, leaving tomorrow. I most excited about meeting up with two girls I met back in 2004 in Florence; we're having dinner Friday night!
So despite the crazy weather - I'm having a good week. I gotta find something more substantial to do with my time soon, though.
