Who doesn't like a 4-day weekend??

I know I sure as heck freaking love them!  Thank you marketing professor for having to go out-of-town :)

Last night I was thinking about how I could use today as a "sit around and do nothing but relax day", except for taking care of some speech evaluations that are due, but when I woke up this morning (9/9:30 FABULOUS!) I thought to myself "heck no Amy you're going to use this day to be productive".  So, I ended up doing laundry, cleaning up the mess I had in the living room of all my school stuff (online classes mean you never have to pack your books up to take them with you lol), vacuuming the living room, Swiffering (dry and wet) in the kitchen and dinning room, and unloading/reloading and running/unloading/reloading the dishwasher.  Major brownie points with my mom for all of that work I did today (+20 jk).

Those darn speech evals got pushed to the bottom of my priority list, even though they're due today.  It is now after 11pm and I am still working on them.  Because my internet connection=waiting for videos to load I am able to type this post as the last speech video I need to watch loads.  Definitely should have done this earlier in the day when less people had posted their evals.

I hope you don't mind but I need to vent about these evals.  Not about doing them but about people not following directions AT ALL!  Each person is supposed to have 4, ONLY 4, evals for their speech.  My professor cannot get much clearer..."Please make sure that you do not choose to critique any student who has already received four critiques--if you do, another student will receive fewer than four. It will always be safest for you to choose those students who have received the fewest critiques so far in the discussion."  We're in college people, many are "older" students, it is not that hard to read and FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS...or is it??  Now I know you might be wondering what the big deal is, or if it really is that big of a deal...and you're right, it's not.  But I am just the type of person who follows the directions, and obviously doesn't like it when others don't follow the directions.  But enough about this...

Tomorrow I am planning to work on homework but I may go snowmobiling for the last time this winter now.  My dad mentioned tonight he would have gone but my brother had already gone out with a friend and when I mentioned this to my mom she said well maybe you and your dad will have to go tomorrow then.  And when I mentioned that my dad asked what I was doing tomorrow and I told him homework my mom also said well maybe you could mention going out for a quick ride to get lunch some where.  So I guess we'll see where tomorrow leads me but I forizzle will be doing homework while I am home.  Then at 6:30pm my parents are meeting up with two other couples; one of the couples the woman works for my mom (and at the same place I work at) and the man was both mine and my brother's hunter safety instructor, and the other couple has gone to races with my parents (and the other couple).  I am just tagging along for the food because I love the fish fry at the bar they're going to.

Questions...

Is there anything different about Greek yogurt compared to "regular" yogurt??

Do you enjoy a long weekend??

I would honestly be surprised if there was someone who didn't like a long weekend!

Time to watch (& listen) to this fourth speech so I can get this evaluation done...and then it's Jersey Shore time! :)

Have a good night peeps!
