My Bags Are Packed ...

I'm ready to go. Sadly, I must still spend the day at work. I'm not going until six.

YAY! At six p.m., I'm being picked up by a car service -- I don't think they'll be sending an actual limo -- and driven into New York City, where I get to stay at a fancy-shmancy hotel for three nights and go to a conference for three days! What an adventure for homebound little me. I'm so excited, I could just plotz.

Anyway, I am totally packed, because I'm getting my nails done right after school, and will be done with that, I hope, in time to pick up a sandwich at Subway so I can bring that with me to eat in my fancy hotel room when I get there. Tonight, all I plan to do is finish up entering some stuff into a new medical records app I have, and watch some TV. Tomorrow, I see that the all-day school librarian's conference is providing breakfast and lunch, and then I'm taking a cab down to the Village -- listen to me, like I spend my life in the city -- to have dinner with my OldFriend, and possibly R will join us as well. On Friday and Saturday, lunch is included -- I'm all about the meals -- and I think that on Friday night I will allow myself to get room service for dinner. How cool is that? I'll be home by dinner time on Saturday.

For now, testing is once again the theme of the day in school. I can't even go into all the details because there is so much idiocy going on here. After the testing is done, I have a class coming in for my history of B-Town presentation, but the period is shortened because of the testing so I'm going to be talking like an auctioneer. I wonder if my jokes will still be funny at high speed.

I should post now because it's time for the bell, even though no one is remembering to ring the bells on testing days. Gahh. You'd think someone had to stand there and ring a bell by hand. Push a button! Set a clock! No, we're just all wandering the building at will today. I hope the conference is better organized than this place.
