Home Again, Home Again, Jiggety-Jig

I am going to spend the weekend in the 901. Whoop! Whoop! I'm headed home this afternoon and will linger until Monday morning. With the help of Freeze*Happy, I am planning a Freeze-A-Thon on Friday in order to set Peter up with meals for the next month. Saturday and Sunday we have a calendar full of nothing to do. I am delighted.

Hello Fall

Sometime in the last week Fall came to Tennessee. The temperature has finally dropped low enough for me to call it "sweater weather." With October on the horizon, Halloween decorations have begun sprouting up. In fact, the Farmers Market is currently ripe with pumpkins and gourds of all shapes and sizes.

Academic Weekend

Last weekend can only be described as academic. I was in class Friday night and Saturday then spent the better part of Sunday with my nose in an assigned book {such is the life of a graduate student}. Fortunately, I like what I'm learning and don't think it is too laborious. Being that I am an extreme extrovert, I made time to go to Red Rooster Saturday night. Sunday I did most of my reading at Bongo Java. I like Bongo Java very much. The food and drinks are excellent and the people watching is even better. Also no matter how long you stay, the staff will not kick you out which I suppose is the biggest perk.
