I returned to Raleigh-Durham last night around midnight. My luggage finally made it here this afternoon. So, I think I can close the book on the e-Learning for Educators state leadership teams retreat, which was far better than I thought it would be.

I took the day off since I went to Alabama and fired things up on Sunday this week, but ended up working some anyway. I never got into that zen state that sometimes strikes when I’m working at home, but no biggie. I’m tired. It’s allowed.

My glasses still haven’t arrived; I was all over the mailbox at noon and was sorely disappointed, then found out that they were held up in a customs shipment and won’t ship USPS for a couple more days. That’s a drag. Also, I’m hoping that they’re not radioactive or something. I don’t know why a bunch of glasses would be held up by customs.

On my last morning in Alabama, someone had written a message on the beach to his girl (or her girl, but given that this was Alabama, I’m guessing it was a dude). I thought it was sweet– it was the first thing I saw when I looked out my window in the morning.
