What an eventful few weeks it has been since last I posted (and yet, I have no pics... bring on the criticism). So much to say, yet so little energy to turn it into written communication. My brain truly is tapoica, sloshing around in my noggin like so much soupy slush. I guess that's what a day full of meetings with Jeff Fiedler and every administrator in your district will do to you...
Well, the band went to BOA Houston and had a successful outing - got to see Dr. Tim and watch finals with the kids. Definitely glad we did that, as they had a chance to see some good groups. We ended up taking 2nd in our class, but all in all the kids gained some needed perspective on the whole competitive aspect of the activity.
That was also right around my birthday, so I became incrementally older - and got a new car (completely unrelated). Atop that, I was able to procure plumes through the Blue Devils and Pacific Crest, both of whom were absolutely great to work with. Thanks to Pete Emmons and Stuart Pompel, you are both life-savers!
The band also went to UIL Marching Contest this past Saturday - received straight ones (superior ratings) from all judges. That's only the second time in 13 years that Waller has received that rating - the first time being last year. That was kind of a nice note to begin last weekend on.
From there, it was off to visit a sick student, and then to dinner with the lovely Sarah Stern at Mark's on Westheimer - the food was ridiculous, as was the company. Good times.
The next day I experienced Hot Bagel Shop for the first time, and had the good fortune to eat dinner with Mr. Fiedler and Ms. Stern later that evening. Good times.
So yeah, that basically brings us to today - and my brain being what it is, that's about as far as the English language us going to take us. Time for sleep, and the hopes that it will repair something up there...
Yes - well aware - the lame post count is getting higher. You're welcome. :)
