I've been wanting to start a blog for some time now and after seeing Chris' blog it got me motivated to go ahead and make the plunge.  I must say that this website is very easy to navigate and use.  I haven't gone through all the features present but the layout is sleek.

I started my first graduate classes this past week.  It was pretty amazing when I found out after my first two classes that two research reports will be due by the end of the semester.  

Hey wait...this is for Accounting!  

One is on XBRL reporting and how it's changed or will change accounting practices, and  the other is regarding Federal income tax that is TBD.  In my other class dealing with Auditing, I was put into a group with three Asian women and we have to do two presentations and a project together.  While they may be good students, every single one of them is no master of the English language, so it's pretty much a slam dunk that I am going to be the one doing the presentations.  This could turn out to be an absolutely wonderful semester.

I get to go to my first class for my fourth and final class this semester, which will deal with issues in Managerial Accounting.   It's only on Thursday's but lasts until 10:45 at night.  It's a good bet I won't see my wife on Thursday's.

Time for this man to hit the sack and I hope Chris has fun in Mystic, CT with Meghan!
