Answer Me This

Why did Pizza Hut choose a guy for their $5 pizza add that looks so much like John Mark Karr? Ick.

One Month Later, More This and That

I'm not sure why I haven't posted. I'm not that busy. Busy. But not that busy. I've had things to report on, but didn't. Weird, huh? We're home from church early. David had some emergency at work, Maddie thinks she's going to puke (faker!), and since David was taking the car and the snow is too deep to walk home from church, I threw in the towel and came home. Yes, the snow is deep. Too deep for me to wear slippers out to start the car this morning. Ouch! I would have been better off going out barefoot. I got my new camera last Saturday. Not as fancy as Sarah's, but way better than my last. I've had it out here and there. Nothing too serious... (From the moving car) This house near mine intrigues me. It has a paved parking lot with lots of different cars all the time.

I am the most immature mom ever. Isaac forgot about some candy in his pocket and asked for help dealing with the melted mess. He didn't find it near as funny as I did, and even tried to block me from taking the picture.

Continuing on with my immaturity, my co-workers are more than 10 years younger than I. Thursday night I had no trouble stooping to their level at my boss' wedding reception. It was held at this beautiful home, currently on the market for $2.6 mil. The guests included an ambassador, so really, not the time for us to act like giggling idiots, yet we did. Brooke and Jehn get a little out of control from time to time.

In addition to familiarizing myself with the camera this week, I was invited to participate in a very elite event: dipping chocolates with my aunt's in-laws. Yesterday I learned (but am not good at) dipping cream centers, and nougat with caramel. I excelled at setting the almond on the top of the coconut centers. And I didn't do too bad at the nut clusters and the hay stacks (because there's not much to it).

With my boss just getting married, she'll be away from work until January. Ugh. Yes, there's a sub. But most subs are easily overwhelmed by our students. So they just sit there. Sit there and watch. Or read the newspaper. Pay me the money to be the sub, I'm doing it anyway.

With two field trips last week, one this week, and all the Christmas planning and partying I don't think I'll be sane come Wednesday afternoon. Fortunately I won't have to. It's another opportunity to reap the benefits of my lowpaying job: a long Christmas break.

Keep your fingers crossed for good traveling weather for next Saturday and Sunday. We'll be heading home.
