I just finished reading this novel yesterday. My coworker Dan lent it to me, and I must say, it was...interesting. Marquez writes very well; he tells the story of one particular family, weaving the reality and fantasy through the pages. The book is entertaining, and at several points I did laugh out loud. Overall, I recommend the book, even if there are some parts where I was left scratching my head.
In other news, tomorrow is Election Day. I am excited for two reasons:
1. I am totally pumped about voting.
2. I am thrilled that this will mean the end of political ads for a while.
In light of the election, Jen posted a great article. I encourage everyone to read it and consider the content. Thanks for posting it, Mrs. B.
Saturday, in addition to being my husband's birthday, was the 5k for Refugee and Immigration Services. The turn out was remarkable, especially for a first attempt. Props go out to Laura (who basically did everything) and my two current interns Annie and Katie. Awesome job ladies! Below are some pictures for your enjoyment. We hope to see everyone there next year!!!

YES! I finished grading on Monday. I graded over 50 paper this past weekend. Yuck! Too bad I get another batch next Thursday...
Woohoo!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one, especially because some people have been giving me a hard time.
That 5k was so much fun. And I also got the coolest singing of "happy birthday" I've ever had!
