Hello again my followers. I apologize for the delay in getting this blog posted. Things in the life of Big Steve have been pretty crazy these past few weeks. Two wakes and a funeral are not my idea of a good week. Enough of that depressing stuff and on to the good stuff!!

Where have I been during these past two week you may ask? Well, let’s see, I have spent a lot of time in the Boston (love it!!) and the Manchester New Hampshire areas. I-93 and I know each other by first name!! This past weekend I flew to Virginia to cover some programs for Tommy. It was great to see my friends from the Mid-Atlantic region. From the sounds of it Tommy is doing a great job. Not a surprise if you ask me!

The rest of this week will keep my in the Boston area once again. I love the T; red line to the green line. So easy to zip in do my visits and zip right out. And that Charlie Card (can you hear my fake Boston accent??)!! Soooooo much better than tokens. Way to go MBTA!!!

I have had a great time meeting with the different students that have signed up for my regional interviews. What a great way to get to know more about UNH. If you are interested there are still some dates and locations available. Check them out today!!

There come a time when I have to get something off my chest. Well this looks as if it were as good a time as any. As I said in a previous blog my colluges and I spend countless nights in hotels and many hours driving around meeting those students who are looking at the University of New Haven. A HUGE pet peeve of mine is when a student is at my table and we are having a great conversation; then the cell phone rings. “Hello, yeah I am at the college fair bla, bla, bla, bla………” Soon the cell phone has won out over me. What ticks me off even more is fellow counselors on their phones or texting while at a fair. UGH!!!!! Is this what society is coming to???? Ok, now I feel better. Thank you for letting me vent.

Well this is it folks. I will try to get another post in on Thursday to make up for my absence last week. If you are wondering how I found the time to write this blog today? My friends, it is simple. It is called a one hour five minute flight gate to gate from BWI-BDL on my friends at Southwest Airlines. HA-HA

Take care everybody and break out those winter jackets. Did I hear correct, snow flurries?????? OH NO!!!!!!!!!

Until next time………………………………………………..
