Day 281: $1 to Penguins

The title of this post sounds ridiculous, but the fact is everybody loved penguins including me. I knew when I went to Newport for a movie today, I would have a good day. I ate lunch at Tom + Chee (tomato soup and grilled cheese restaurant), bought candy at Sweet Dreams, and saw a pretty decent movie, Ides of March, which featured all sorts of scenes from Cincinnati, Miami, and Xavier. On top of all that, I had the opportunity to donate money to the Newport Aquarium's fund for penguins and their habitat. True, I should have been grading papers today, but I'm glad I wasn't. I deserve a good day.
