Spring Break!

One of the perks of working for the public schools is receiving a spring break! My spring break occured about a week ago and it was awesome. It started out by going to the Giants/Dodgers baesball game here in SF. The Giants lost but it was still a ton of fun.

Then on Easter we had my family over for the first time. It was the first time that we ever hosted a holiday. I prepared a ham for the first time and we have been having leftover ham ever since! Everyone said that it turned out good so I'm hoping they were telling me the truth. We also watched Happy Feet which was surprisingly hilarious.

Monday I went up to Fairfield, CA to have lunch with a friend from grad school at Sac State which was a lot of fun. Tuesday I went to the orthodontist to get my braces tightened and a new wire put in (not fun). After I got home I decided to go on a bike ride and ended up going for about 25 miles! It was a fantastic ride through the hills out here. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I spent finishing our taxes, watching baseball on TV, going to the gym, reading, etc. Oh yeah, Thursday I went golfing at Dublin Ranch Golf Course with a friend which was fun and frustrating at the same time. I am in the process of learning the sport of golf and it is one of the most challenging games I have ever played! But a lot of fun...and who doesn't enjoy driving the golf carts?

Saturday I got a call from another friend saying he had an extra ticket for an A's game. So I ended up seeing the A's/Yankess game in Oakland. What a game! It went into 13 innings and the Yankees won. I finally got my chance to "boo" the Yankees. Quite exhilarating.

So there you go! For those who wanted to be bored with my day-to-day happenings...there you have it. I still need to do a post on a trip to Las Vegas we took lat month for my father-in-law's 60th birthday party. I'll work on that. In the meantime, back to work!
