FYI - Better late than never?

So, I'm starting to upload some of my Middle East trip photos into an album (see the section on the left sidebar that has albums?).  Only six weeks after the fact - not too bad, ay?  Actually, if I were a super hero, I think my power would be slowness....  Ah well, it is what it is.  Anyway, enjoy the photos...if you're still interested.  : )

And hope the week is starting well for you all.  My highlight was a sweet score on the free table today at work....  It pretty much provided my whole lunch: sandwiches, pasta salad, potato salad, pickles and even cookies.  Though the cookies were nothing to write home about (but clearly, worth posting about), the rest was pretty tasty.  And, come on, it was free!  Also, my peppermint/white chocolate latte was the breakfast of champs this morning.  All in all, not a bad Monday. 

Oh, and I really have to share this latest "our students say the darnedest things" example from one of our teachers.  She had them write papers about American states and, per usual, learned some pretty interesting things.  Three of my favorites:

Washington: Their state dance is the square dance, which means square in French. (French and English are similar like that).

Alaska: The flower of Alaska is don’t forget me. The people of native no longer live a life in the small ice room and eat the rawness, but they have become the workers and live in the city have a modern life.

Louisiana: The most famous feature of Louisiana is the Cajun culture, so you can’t miss it if you visit there, or you will regret for your whole life. (Apparently the jambalaya really is that amazing).

I tell ya, some days I really miss China.  : )
