Why does postage need to go up today??

Here I am all ready to mail out the applications for the new apartment and my car payment this month. I was on my way to work this morning when I realized that today is the day that postage goes up to 41 cents. So, here I sit with two envelopes all ready to go out, missing 2 cents. Which means, after work I will be trudging to the post office to buy 4 cents worth of stamps. Probably more, because Dave has a bunch of 39 cent stamps at his house (where i happened to have gotten mine). So, I will pick up a few more to accomdate the stamps he has at his house (at least a some of them).

Otherwise, I am at work today, but we dont have any students. Im not exactly sure what Im going to do all day. I have a Graduation presention from 1-2pm, but besides that - I will be biding my time. Im sure I will find stuff to do - it just seems to be a really long day now that I dont have students to entertain me all day. Oh well.. Time to start to be productive.
