Houston....

Today I head to Houston for five days. Doesn't sound like a long time, but right now it feels like it.



L has her freshmen orientation days this week, so she is coming up with me and then I will drive her over tomorrow night. On Wednesday I will dive back over there to pick her up. Sound fun?



For the next five days I will be going to Rice University to learn all about AP Human Geeography. I am hoping to come away from it with more ideas, great ideas, and textbooks. Yes. textbooks. My district does not buy new textbooks until 2012 and the textbooks I have are already outdated. Money is not spent on my course even though my course is the first AP course students take in high school.

I know five days isn't much, but I hate being away. I have an actual vacation this summer. No working, something very unusal for me. Nice though. So being away for five days is odd.

Need to finish packing.
