George Mason, Medicine, and the week that was....

So, here's what happens at the Witham Nation this week...

--Rachel and Mommy get sick; Rachel first, then Mom. Rachel gets over it a little quicker than Mom, but both are well later Saturday. But now, Rachel has a horrific cough, and tonight, a fever. Is there a Doc in the house???

--The interruption of regularly scheduled programming at the house led Dad home early both Wednesday and Thursday. Worked at home, then returned to work Wednesday. Came home and stayed Thursday. Friday was numbing, but we made it, as always. :)

--16 down to 4.

Thursday: Goodbye Duke. Gonzaga gone again.

Friday: Washington...one foul, and it's all gone. George Mason, kicks Wichita.

Saturday: LSU and the world's largest "baby" handle Texas. UCLA makes it three #1 seeds out.

Sunday: The dream comes true. George Mason in the Final Four. Ranks as one of the biggest upsets ever. Absolutely ever. Watched the ending while at work this PM.


So, into the new week we go...a crown to receive, a surprise trip I hope to make, a visit with a very dear friend on tap, then the Final Four.

And, for the first time in, like, 20 years, losing an hour of sleep next Saturday night won't mean squat to me personally.

Woo hoo. :)
