Random is the name of the game

Today, Random is the name of the game...

(1) I've been in CLE (Continuing Legal Education) all darn day.  It's usually pretty boring, but I would say that only about 2 hours of the 6 hours were boring beyond belief.  From 8:30 to noon, I learned about childhood psychological disorders.  It was entertaining (if you can believe that), but if you had been there it would make you never want to procreate (or procreate again if you've already do that). 

(2) I WD-40'd all of the doors in my house this past weekend.  It's kind of changed my life.  The back door especially.  It had squeaked and been slowly driving me insane until this weekend when it hit me, "Why don't you put some WD-40 on it?".  Duh!  The silence is wonderful, but my bedroom door and my closet door now close spontaneously.  This has caused me to almost run into the closet door on more than one occasion.  It has also proved to be a puppy trap in my bedroom (Milly once, Lola three times).

(3) There is a mosquito in my house that is now the source of my insanity, and possible future diagnosis of  West Nile.  The darn thing keeps biting my feet.  Itchy feet are the worst!

(4) I'm packing tonight and trying to get things ready for the dog/house sitter and substitute professor for Monday's class.  Lola's looking concerned that the luggage is out.  I'm so ready to get away, especially since my Mexico trip in May got cancelled at the last minute.  Sadly NOLA is going to be pretty warm this weekend, but it will still be wonderful.

(5) This weekend is a big football game, so I've totally scoped out all the places where I should be able to watch the Tech game in NOLA. 

I probably won't be blogging again until Tuesday, but will likely be Tweeting on my trip, so if you are on Twitter, follow me to join in on the NOLA fun (Twitter Link on the sidebar).  Have a great weekend!

Europe 2024 {Day 10 ~ Munich, Germany}

On December 22nd, I departed Salzburg train station at 8:00 and arrived in Munich at 9:40.  The station is under construction and a real mess!  I finally made my way out and found it was really raining.  I made my way to a taxi and took it to my hotel.  My hotel room wasn't ready but they kept my bags for me and I headed out.   I have been to Munich a couple of times and wanted to see a couple of things I haven't had a chance to do before.  I planned to to go to the Nazi Documentation Center first since it was raining, but when I looked it up on my phone to double check the hours, I learned they had just closed for renovations.  So rain or not, I was going to have to head out to Nymphemburg Palace.  I took the tram out and then walked to the palace. I don't know why, but I didn't take many pictures on the inside. I also bought a ticket to the Royal Stables Museum which houses lots of coaches. I really found all the sleighs to be a sight to see, bu...
