A mighty cheer was heard...

My online class is finally over!! I typed in grades this morning! There is no finer feeling. I'm going to go see a matinee (of _anything_!!) and sit in the a/c and eat popcorn all day. Woo hoo!

What else have I been doing? Are you kidding me? That course ate a hole in my life. A deeply unrewarding pedagogical experience. And yet I was paid almost well....

Running: It's okay. It's actually past time to start training up for a fall marathon. Egads. What, again already? I'm having IT-band issues though.

Life: I had a great fourth of July with Friend Rick. We went canoeing on the Shenandoah. Hilarity ensued. We encountered nothing more challenging than a couple of less-than-class-one rapids, and yet we still managed to take a couple more or less backwards. Wahoo!

House: Still waiting to hear if my loan was approved. I got a look at a printout of my credit report and was surprised to see how good my score is. At least for the next couple of days, anyways.

Family: I'm headed to VT next week for a few days. Have to get back and pack.
