While this week was busy, next week is ridiculous. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, we have PD's to go to every day. That's right, I'm an assistant who has to go to PD. The upside is I get paid for two of them, the third I'm not sure yet. Then Thursday I go to the dentist. Ellice has an appointment on Tuesday--pray that goes well.
NBA playoffs start today. Overall, I'm rooting for Kentucky players, the Rockets or LeBron. Isn't DVR wonderful? I'll be able to watch each game in under an hour.
Coed softball is a fiasco so far, as we don't have enough girls--we had to forfeit our first game. We are going to see if we can combine with a girls team--they didn't have enough for a league this year. We'll see how it shakes out.
34 days left of school, and then baby comes, so we are in full countdown mode.
Star Trek: Ghost Ship by Diane Carey
This is Star Trek Next Generation #1; Set just after the first episode of next generation (Encounter at Farpoint), this novel thrusts the Enterprise into a horrible situation, having to choose whether to put millions of beings out of their misery all while surviving against a superpowered extradimensional creature/machine. The theme here is Euthenasia and the characters get downright belligerent in their debate. Carey takes full opportunity to explore the angst, apprehension and uncertainty of this new crew and how the command officers conflict in trying to define their roles on the Enterprise. The author really delivers in the end with a powerful finale; This book feels like an edgy, slightly more raw Next Generation two-part episode. ***1/2
