Whole family went to a ballgame tonight. At the turnstile my husband went first with the tickets, and I herded the kids along ahead of me so I could make sure we all stayed together.

The man at the turnstile took our tickets from my husband, and turned to count heads. “One, two, three, four,” he noted, punching our stack of tickets. “And I’ll give it to the lady in the rear.”

“But I hardly know you,” I protested, taking the tickets.

He started to say “Okay,” then realized what I’d said and laughed.

And the Durham Bulls won, 3-0.

My online class of Individual Income Taxes started today, so I was finally able to log on and get the course information—specifically, which textbook I’ll need.

While I was on campus for the biology class (not needed for the accounting degree, I’m just interested in biology) I stopped by the bookstore to get my tax textbook.

$162. One hundred sixty-two dollars.

It’s got a software CD in it, which explains some of the cost, but holy shit. I just hope I can sell this thing back next semester.
