To Do Homework or To Blog? . . . That is the Question . . .

Due to a series of excused absences and such, I have suddenly found myself 3 weeks behind in homework for tomorrow's math class. Since tomorrow will not be an excused absence, I expect that I will be expected to produce said homework. So, despite my preference, I must choose homework. Chicago was awesome. Pictures and details are forthcoming.

Chicago for Beginners

Every year, Utah students and teachers look forward to the two day vacation in the fall that is UEA. Yeah, there is a convention that goes on during those two days. and it wasn't intended to be a vacation for teachers. But seriously, given the choice of sitting around in a convention and spending 5 days in Chicago . . . the choice is obvious.

In preparation for the trip, my friend gave me a couple of pointers so I could appear more like a local. I must remember to:
1. Refer to Chicago as Chicagoland.
2. Refrain from all temptation to put ketchup on my hot dogs. (I wonder what they would think of fry sauce!)

Stay tuned for pictures and more 1,000 Places to See sites.

(Is that good enough PSM? Gosh!) :)

My Latest Epiphany



Long Distance Therapy: 2.5 cents/ minute
Game Night Membership: $10
Accounting Course at the Community College: $500
Finding Out You Really Shouldn't Have Become an Accountant: Priceless

It turns out Accounting is a good puzzle but not a career choice. Now what?
