So it is obvious that one of the perks of teaching is the time off, but the SNOW DAYS is a wonderful unexpected perk!  My weekend was short, due to a Saturday professional development thing, so I was feeling stretched this week anyway.  And now a snow day!  Could anything be better?  I even watched a movie this afternoon, without grading papers! 
That's all.  Just a happy day.

Europe Anyone?
With the line of work I'm in, I have the wonderful benefit of extensive time off.  The two weeks of winter break were absolutely wonderful.  In college, I typically became bored with the month+ breaks at Christmas time, but this was just right. 
After 3 days in Tulsa with the fam, we drove to Colorado for some of the best skiing of my life. A great wedding/New Year's party and a quick trip to Dallas completed my traveling of the break. I finally came back home on Thursday, giving myself a full 3-day weekend to rest and catch up.
This brings me to my current quest: Summer Break. I really want to travel. Specifically to Europe, but I don't want to go alone. Partially for safety, partially to keep myself sane. If anyone is traveling in June/July ....
