First week back to school

So the new year ushered in the new quarter, which began on Monday. While I am only taking three classes this quarter I am already busier than I was last quarter. My classes seem like they should be hard but really good. I am taking Competitive Strategy (basically the economics/game theory of real world industry), Financial Statement Analysis (how to use and interpret the accounting stmts to make decisions and predictions), and Social Entrepreneurship (a "lab class" that entails working for a social startup while learning about social ventures in a class room setting). I am also doing a project with a group for a local non-profit board, which seems like another class.

In other news, Bill and I got Just Dance 2, a dancing game for the wii. We had played Just Dance at Erin's over Christmas and thought it might be a fun game to have. My idea is that when you get home from class and it is too late to go work out you can play this for a half hour and at least get a little activity. It is actually a lot of fun, and if you like making a fool of yourself dancing you might like this game.

I haven't done a lot of cooking recently - I think I have the January blues. I did break into a jar of my halved tomatoes and used it in some yummy chilli last weekend, and I am steadily going through my garlic. I think i have enough garlic to last until spring as long as it doesn't start sprouting. (I maybe needed to put it in a colder part of the basement.)

That is all that's fit to print.
