Just another day


I want you to know that I really tried hard to post yesterday. For about 20 minutes I sat and stared at the computer screen, waiting for inspiration to strike. I couldn't even get it to tickle. Today is not looking much better.

I'm actually doing an honest day's work today. Well, mostly. I'm supposed to be substitute teaching high school math at my dad's school. As far as I can tell, I'm doing a pretty good job. Nobody has died yet and everyone seems to be hard at work. A couple of people have had questions and if I didn't know the answer, I made one up. Yay me.

Last night, GCU brought in a company to run a money-less casino. Everyone got five hundred "dollars" at the door and then they could play at any of the games available. It was pretty neato. There were about eight blackjack tables, six poker tables, two roulette wheels and two craps tables. This was definitely one of the most well attended events GCU has had. I don't know if that means that it was just really fun or we have a school full of gambling addicts. I played at blackjack for most of the night. I did really well. I think I made about two or three hundred. But then I lost it all playing Texas Hold-em. Meh. At least it wasn't real money. I guess I don't have a future in gambling after all.

Anyway, enough rambling. Have a great President's Day weekend. I'm sorry today's post is so lame. I kept expecting inspiration to give me a good whack. I guess it left for vacation early for the long weekend like everyone else.
