Taking most of a day off work results in more to do the next day...but it turns out, both meetings were canceled and I was able to get caught up relatively easily. Yay!

This afternoon Katie has her first school dance. It's right after school, on a Thursday afternoon. Whatever happened to Friday night dances, where it was far more special to go in the dark and have your parents drop you off and pick you up? A dance in the afternoon...seems weird, and more like a bandaid on teen social issues than anything real. *shrug*

Having listened to the "Goodbye Gatsby" song many, many times this week, I'm now wanting to find a copy of the book again. I remember reading it in high school and having it be one of the few required reading books I actually enjoyed. I remember being surprised by that, too...it's certainly been a long time and I wonder if I'll like it still.

Kids home any minute...homework time.
