I think I need to get my shoes re-heeled, not to mention that I'm just flat out of practice facilitating. I don't ( Read more... )

Just lots of little things nagging at me. However, I won't let it get me down since it is a nice day out and this weekend was really, really nice. And I managed to update my Palm Pilot and computer for the DST. Go me! Bad thing though, is that my home phone is dead. And has most likely been dead since Wed or Thursday. The only way I found out ( Read more... )

I actually had a nice weekend. Friday went to the bank to open up that IRA of mine. Turns out that the guy opening my IRA, I taught in class and one of the tellers had me for class as well.
