Nothing much to write about...

I realized it's been a while since I wrote an entry but I haven't had much to write about! We had a pretty good weekend for the most part. Had to cancel plans for friday night b/c I noticed I was on dorm duty, so that was a bummer. Then saturday we had a 3.5 hour faculty meeting in the AM then work in the PM. Then we went to a fundraiser for Brian's school at Mystic Aquarium. That was pretty cool...saw some beluga whales, sharks, you know...the normal stuff you see at aquariums. at one point though we looked around and though "we have no business being here!", that feeling was especially strong when they started the auction. We couldn't even afford what the offered as the starting bid. Just amazing how many people have money sitting there waiting to be spent on something. Granted it was for a great cause and all, however, it got a little ridiculous. I mean honestly, who bids $6700 on a sleepover at an aquarium. as cool as it would be for little kids I suppose...nto sure it's worth that chunk of change! After that we went out in Mystic to a karaoke bar with some of bri's coworkers, that was a great time. Although we were regretting it as we were driving 40 minutes back to his friends house to drop them off...then we had to drive another 45 minutes home, at 230AM. I'm not built for those late nights anymore! The next morning I volunteered at a walk for autism we were hosting on campus. they made over $100,000 which was great news, on the downside I served absolutely no purpose there. I was supposed to be in charge of the inflatables the kids were going to play in, but since it was rainy out, they didn't put it up right away...then when they did 2 hours later, they already had 4 people working it. So I gave my time which felt great, but I wish I could have been of more use! Oh well, next time. After that we went to see Meg who is 8 months pregnant. We had a great time with her, mark, lisa and kyle. It was so great to see meg and mark so excited about their upcoming addition to their fam. I wish I had pics to post but of course I forgot my camera. Needless to say, by sunday night, we were beat. But it's so worth it when you get to spend time with fam and/or friends! this weekend will be a weekend for the families I have a feeling...mothers day and all, so that should be fun. We actually have found a way to see all mothers, and grandmothers on one day. whoo hoo! there you have it...I told you I didn't have much exciting news =)
