Back to work

Traffic was obnoxious this morning. Nothing I could see to cause it other than the end of vacations and folks back on the road again. Heavy volume and sleepy drivers is not necessarily a good combination.

In other news, my professor told me yesterday that I had a "phenomenal exam." I'm not sure what that means, but I think it's a good sign. ;) And now, I gotta go make sure folks show up to my meeting. Yay.

Still trucking ... we'll make Bree one of these years!
