Went out to lunch with Mom's friends despite forecast of light snow. It's my first time seeing honest-to-goodness snow in a long, long time... White powder in the air like bad dandruff... huge 6-point flakes easily seen against black gloves/coat... ~1" of white covering everything not trodden into icky slush... And cold. Really cold. I think I've been coming down with a cold since Monday. Dammit.

Lunch - Good food. No much conversation, at least on my part. I don't remember Mom's friends, not since I was like seven. Their sons didn't say too much either. One of them has a masters in Astronomy and is trying to get into an university in the U.S. (he'll have to redo his masters and apply for a Ph.D. for that tho). Of course, the plan is moreso to change to a more lucrative field like aeronautics or something once he gets in. The schools he applied to in CA are UC Berkeley and Santa Cruz. Maybe I should introduce him to Filippenko. Heh. :p
