Oh, Wow

I cannot even remember the last time I blogged, or what I blogged about.

Here's why:

* It started last Wednesday, with an all day meeting in which I actually had to be two places at one time, so of course I screwed two major things up. Yay. Then I had class all night.
* Thursday I had Back-to-School Night, and I don't mean to be Ms Snarky-Pants but I HATE BTS. No parents ever show (oh, excuse me I had 20 this year), and it makes for a really long day. When parents come they only want to talk about their specific kid. I think that a parent-teacher type thing would work better, but I don't see school officials rushing to give up the old tradition of BTS.
* So then, Friday I had to rush home and pack super quick for a weekend trip to Fort Bragg for my dad's birthday. I was very excited about the weekend, but not so much about the four hour plus drive. That excitement quickly turned to uneasiness when I realized what a twisty road we would take. And sure enough, 2 hours outside of Fort Bragg, Em puked. Lovely. Nothing like cleaning out the car at a gas station in a little town that has to be in the running for Meth Capital of California.
* Once we moved past the vomit, the actual weekend was a lot of fun. Maybe too fun because Justin and I got home and realized how much work we had to do this week. Four day weeks seem like a good idea, but one always has to get the same amount of work done in fewer days.
* Tuesday and Wednesday were painful blurs, but Thursday sure sticks in my mind. During the middle of the night on Wednesday, my number came up for getting sick. Really sick. I have been tremendously lucky and have not been sick in years, but I guess my time was up. So I missed school on Thursday. And really I was okay with that.
* Today, Friday, was a little rough, but I made it through. I did what I had to and cut back on what I could. Couldn't get out of the 100 degree football game duty, and I had to bring Emerson because Justin got sick, but we made it through.

After this little recap, I have two things planned: a beer and bed. Ahhhhhhhhh.
