Mostly just a Thursday

I don’t know how you spent your Valentine’s Day, but I went the traditional route: visiting a campus with my boss and talking to instructors about the courses they teach and the textbooks they use. I’m just a hopeless romantic that way.

I mean, sure, the school is located at the corner of Valentines Lane, and one of the professors actually has his office in the same place my sister had her wedding reception. But I’m not sure I’d call it a very Valentines-y day.

I did get to sleep a little bit late, since the school’s only about fifteen minutes from my front door. And that’s always quite lovely. Mostly, though, it was just a Thursday.
