Back from a "Staycation"
Today is August 24, 2009. I returned to work today after a week-long "staycation." I took time off to prepare for a final exam for the course that started this blog, "E-Commerce."
It was also my birthday last week. After my exam, I wanted to be able to just rest easy and enjoy life.
I did.
Since I returned, the headlines in the news are already everywhere else, so there's no point in posting news here.
