Reading Week

Well, I missed posting last week mostly due to being sick for the past week. We seem to be passing it among our family because I had to keep Jacob home on Sunday and Monday Caleb had fever. Hopefully we will all be over it for Thanksgiving.

We get 2 weeks out of class in the fall around Thanksgiving time. This week is reading week. It is a good time to catch up on assignments before the last few weeks of class hit. It is also the time that many of our professors head to the annual conference of the ETS. The fact that reading week occurs at this time is no coincidence. I think they decided not to hold class because all of the profs were gone anyway. (Whatever the reason, I like it.) I would like to have gone to the conference myself, but since it was in Pennsylvania this year, it was just too far to travel. I'll just plan to go to the regional conference at Southwestern in Fort Worth this spring.

This is not my normal time to write but last night, I went to log on to the internet and it was down. Not the whole internet, just my connection. I called Comcast and they made an appointment for a tech to visit this morning. He got to the house at 9:30 and had the problem solved by 9:32. Our two cables had been swapped and the internet ended up on the wrong cable. He swapped the cables and voila, the connection started working. He sure knew awfully fast what the problem was... I can't help but wonder if he was working in the area yesterday. Or maybe this is just a common thing to happen.

Well, back to homework and then work again. I have a lot to do before the end of the semester but I'll get through it.
