Today was PJ's day for Red Ribbon Week! With all the rain and my comfy jammies, it was hard to stay awake. At least I've been ready for bed all day!

Listen up, ladies!!! The word on the street is that City of Bones by Cassandra Clare is supposed to be the next Twilight! Tonight David and I had Friday night date night- dinner and B&N visit, where I picked it up! I just got the first one in the trilogy and am going to check it out. I'll let you know how it goes! It has vampires, werewolves AND demons! Here's a link to the Barnes and Noble page if you want more info. I don't know about you, but I'm ready for the weekend!!!

After hours upon hours of work, I finally finished my first round of college recommendation letters. So far...I think this is just for the schools with Early Action dates and the Ivy Leagues. I sure hope MIT, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, and Stanford know me by name now- I've sure sent them some mail in the past couple of years!! And yes, I do have kids at "those" schools- 2 at Harvard, about 7 or 8 at Cornell, two at Brown, about four at USC and one at Carnegie Mellon. And no, I'm not proud of them at all!!! :) :)

Grading. Grading. Grading. I need to figure out how much of my life I've spent grading papers, quizzes, and projects. Actually, I'll probably just be depressed by the results, so maybe not.

Eight large pizzas devoured in about five minutes after school today. Apparently free pizza gets the kids to attend meetings for the club I sponsor!
