Day 5 - 61 -- The week ends

The week ended on a high note. In seminar today, two past graduates presented wonderful stories of their career paths since leaving campus. There was much interest from the current students in attendance. The faculty were able to visit with the guest speakers over lunch -- a wonderful time to reconnect and take a few moments to relax. After a short work meeting and quick trip to the grocery store, I headed home to work on grading before the evening event. One of our student societies arranged an evening of wine and appetizer pairings with a local chef and sommelier. The food pairings did not disappoint <smile> and conversations were fun.

A song from a musical came to mind tonight. The lyrics speak to the desire to go out and enjoy oneself. The tempo is a bit frenetic, which mirrors the excitement of a night out. Enjoy!
