I swear to never live below the Mason Dixon Line

So, I just got back from vacation in VA. It is awesome that school is out and being away for over a week was great. School ended on Wednesday, Thursday I had some appointments, and then I went to my parents' house. I was there with my parents, aunt, and cousin until Sunday after brunch. Then I drove down to VA to stay with Ryan and Gregory.

My time in VA was great - hanging out, sleeping in, laying by the pool, drinking beers, and oops .... getting a citation.
Apparently it is illegal to drink on PRIVATE property if you can be SEEN from PUBLIC property. (ie: you can't drink on your front porch because people can see you from the street. ie: you can't have a FOURTH OF JULY BBQ outside because people can see you from the road). RIDICULOUS.

so I now have a citation for Drinking in Public. My only fear was about my teaching career - but this is a lesser infraction than a speeding ticket, so as long as I pay it, there is no problem.

Now I'm back in NYC, taking classes at NYU and counting down the days to the last Harry Potter book.

Also, I'll be teaching 3rd grade next year.
Also, my apartment is full of bugs. I can't figure out how to get rid of them.
