Testing, testing. Feeling a little dumb doing this, but I figured I read enough blogs, why not try my hand at writing one? Yeah, me and 8 million others - I'm really original. BUT! I can spell and I do have decent grammar, so I've got that going for me (and you, incidentally).

So, the first post. Thinking, thinking...oh, here's one: my kids' school pisses me off. They don't tell anybody when Meet the Teacher Day (or, as we call it around these parts, Book Day) is until a week or two before it occurs. Because, of course, we're all just sitting around with nothing to do and no plans to make until the school tells us when we need to be there. I, for one, work full time and travel fairly frequently, so unless I know for sure when it is, there's a decent chance I won't be there. And that would suck, because I love that day! I have since I was a little girl. There's nothing like the feeling of newness and possibility that comes with starting a new school year, and I get excited for my daughters every time it comes around for them.

Okay, that's all I've got for the first one. We'll see if this lasts.
