I picked up my car yesterday. Of course there is a bad side associated with that - it cost quite a bit to fix!

Actually best weekend -- the Renaissance Symposium is over, and it went very well. Besides teaching, I was able to attend some other presentations this year (last year they had me too heavily scheduled to do anything but my own classes) and picked up piles of facsinating stuff. Kind of a three-way tie between 'humoral medicine', 'instrumental music medieval to the renaissance' and 'the renaissance sailor'.

One of my best things -- all my sessions were packed, and on the last one, I got a hearty round of applause! Not a usual thing in these classes. the Symposium is designed for information exchange, but I always strive to entertain!

Now that it's over, I can collapse and slow down for a few days.

Boys' intensive therapy starts on Thursday. Met most of the team this morning, and everyone is great!

Finding out that I have something in common with one of my work mates! We were very excited today!

No. I didn't read it at night and most of the time I thought it was funny scary not scary scary.

***SPOILER***

To be honest I found it hard to read the last 100 pages over the last couple of days because I was reading about the destruction of this town by a supernatural force when all I need to do to see destruction is to look at the news.

In the end I liked it more than I thought I was going to when I was half way through.

Might sound silly, but I am really enjoying my college course! Today we have had the Customer service component, the class is a nice group (todays is anyhow!) and the lecturer is a lovely woman! Really happy!
