They say it's your birthday...

Yeah, it's my birthday and I had to go to work. Sure, I realize this is part of being an adult, but I don't have to like it. I was truly hopeful for a second day home from work due to the ice storm, but I had to settle with one day off and one day of late arrival.

It was absolutely ridiculous that we had class today. In my first class, I had 4 students (out of 25) and in the second class, we had a whopping 6! It was a complete waste of time for all involved, and it bothers me that our administration would encourage students and employees to drive on unsafe roads.

I'm certain there's a logical reason we had class today when there was ice on the road and it was cancelled yesterday when roads were clear. I'm sure the administration made the decisions they had to with the information available. But-- I don't have to agree with it, and I don't have to like it.

For my birthday, I got some fabulous gifts from my husband: Tommy Bahama "Very Cool" perfume (it rocks), a Bella Band, a gift certificate to a maternity store, and a gift certificate for a manicure/pedicure. I'm totally spoiled, and I love it! Tonight we're going to my college basketball games, so I can support my students. It'll be good times.
