Much Ado About Nothingness

Sometimes the most inane topics give us the most grief. Why do we make such a fuss over the little stuff? That's what I hope to answer in my humble little blog.

Inaugural Posting!

So this is my first post in my new blog! Thanks to my cousin for talking me into doing this.

On tap for today:
1--SCHOOL: Grades were due today for our first 9 weeks at school. Funny thing is, our first nine weeks lasted ELEVEN weeks. I'm not exactly sure how that worked out. Did they think we wouldn't notice? On the bright side we did not have students today. Not that I dislike my students, it's just that well, they can be rather bothersome at times. New rules are going into effect for the second nine weeks, and they ARE NOT going to be happy! As my cousin Amber said, I will be channeling my aunt for strength!

My procrastination got the better of me today as well. I did not spend nearly enough time on my grading throughout the nine weeks as I should have. Hence the reason I was so frustrated today. I vow to do better, but we shall see.

2--FUN: I had a wonderful DC weekend that I must gush about for a few lines! My cousin Amber and best friend Amy are the best! I adore them! We had a wonderful shopping weekend, and I picked up some rather interesting wines to sample over the next month or so. Found a Petite Sirah and an interesting looking Chianti, plus I landed two of my favorite whites--Santa Margharita Pinot Grigio and Moselland Ars Vitis Riesling! Amy also gave me a rather interesting Rose from a theatre in Southern VA. :)

Our Ikea trip was rather fruitful as well. I can't believe we nearly bought out the entire store! I think one of the best parts was seeing the Ikea virgin sign. Amy and Amber really should have patented that line.

And the food was AMAZING! Hands down the best place was The Carlyle (sp?). What a fantastic meal! and worth every penny! YUM!

alright. I suppose I will become more blog-savvy as I continue to use this thing...until then~
Nothingness prevails!
