Clearly I have fallen off this planet - currently I am buried under a mountain of paper work and have a large number of middle school student report card comments to write (can you tell trimester 2 ends soon???) - but this weekend I loaded up my trusty Civic with three dear friends for a road trip to St. Louis (to visit another friend).
Lots of fun (and drinking - more so than I think I've done in the past year combined, which, by the way, doesn't add up to that much, so don't worry!) ensued.
It was fantastic. Just what the doctor ordered.

Can't beat it. As I near the start of my (gasp!) 30th year on this earth, I have come to realize that time spent with friends (and family) is the best way to spend your time. Sometimes it might mean cutting something else short or worrying about work later...but that's okay. In fact, it's better. And it's worth a little extra added stress later.
This I truly believe.
