It's days like today that I really miss teaching. Not because I don't like this job, not even because I miss the kids (though I sometimes do), but because teachers are still on break, and I had to come back to work today. *sigh* Not really the best reason to go back into teaching, but on days when I consider it, vacation time is definitely number one on my list of pros.

It's really quiet here today, as classes don't begin till next week, and I haven't any projects left that I can work on at the moment. I'm glad I brought my knitting to work on during my desk time. I'm not sure what else I'll have to do today, and I hate being bored. At least if I'm sitting at the desk knitting, it looks like I'm being halfway productive, waiting for patrons to come by and ask questions, as opposed to just sitting at my computer playing.

So I went bowling the other night with my new bowling ball, and I scored a 160 on the first game!! That's my highest score to date. Of course, on the second game I didn't even break 100, but I rallied on the third and managed a 122, which is closer to my normal.

As usual, I had a pretty good time with my mother, but by the end of the first week, I was ready for her to be out of my apartment. I love both my parents, but a week is as long as I can handle with either of them, if we're staying in the same house.

It's back to work tomorrow, so I'm making the most of my last day off. At the moment it's nearly 2:30pm, and I'm still in my pjs. I've been doing some reading and watching some shows that got recorded while my mother was here. I have to go to the post office at some point today, but other than that, I'm free to be a slob and a vegetable, and I'm enjoying it a great deal. If you'll excuse me, I have to go back to doing nothing.
