So I came home from Seattle with that fun "Breakout Honor" award; some books signed by Adam Rex, John Sciescka, Keely and Velani, Grace Lin, and my hero, Ellen Hopkins; a teeny tiny Japanese maple tree; and some new friends.

What I came home to is five miles of laundry; 30 essays to grade; 2 kids with pneumonia; a car in the shop from that WinCo fiasco; and a missing sock basket.

Oh, LA Conference, you're already looking really good.

Ron Howard: What the #@*! was I thinking???

Debating.

My 20 year high school reunion is that weekend, too.

LOL! Yes, the LA conference would look really good in comparison to that. : )
