When I watched the news at 11:20 last night, we'd gotten 6.4 inches of rain in Central Park - yesterday alone. This morning on the news they said we're up to 7.5. The usual rainfall for the month of April in New York is 4.3 inches. We're soaking wet! It's my first nor-easter! There's flooding everywhere, and transportation problems abound. Luckily (yeah right) I had so much work to do that I didn't have to go out in the rain. The curriculum project I'm coordinating for my group reached 330 pages yesterday, and it's still not done. I wonder how many hours it will take to print! So, if you're wondering what I'm up to... it's writing papers. I am in grad school, so I suppose it's to be expected!
