Next Stop, Istanbul

I'm sorry I didn't post any book blurb on Friday, either on time or late. 

I was finishing up in my classroom (organizing-wise) on Friday, and then cooked all night for my son's rehearsal luncheon on Saturday.

Then Sunday (the 28th) was his wedding. (I'm going to ASSume I didn't make a fool out of myself, but since I'm writing this before the wedding happens, I shouldn't say anything.)

On Monday I took a train to Chicago (it's a long story why I needed to do that) and then a flight to Istanbul. I'll be in Turkey until late Saturday evening, and plan on taking lots of pictures and notes...

... Which is why I've been such a slacker when it comes to blogger. I still needed to finish my report cards (procrastination + a looming deadline = a early departure from the wedding, I imagine).

I will try to catch up on comments and posts after I return on Monday. Keep your fingers crossed that I don't get too sunburned or dehydrated while I'm there...
