I'm a Winner!

WooHoo! I won me some Super Mom magnets! Cause I'm awesome that way.

And since I am (according to Chris' Pre-K teacher) Supermom, it fits quite nicely.

Thanks Melanie.

Now buy her book!

A Year

David is officially going to be gone for a year. He won't be leaving the states, but still...a year. We will get to go see him at Christmas and hopefully on Spring Break. We haven't figured out what to do for the summer yet. I'm going to go get the plane tickets today for the Christmas break to make sure we have them. I'm gonna miss him a little.

Happy Birthday, Matt

Not to say we have had a lot of rain lately, but the fairies are moving into our backyard.


UPDATE - These things are getting HUGE! I'm thinking dinner plate size.

Like this? Made it myself. And it is filled with the goodness that is French Vanilla Cappuccino.

Hail to the Chief

Get your position here

Get Outta My Head!

For no apparent reason this morning, this song was STUCK in my head.

Well it's Sunday Mornin'
And the sun in shinin'
In my eye that is open
And my head is spinnin'
Was the life of the party
I can't stop grinnin'
I had to much Tequila last night

CHORUS
Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys?
Did I shoot out the lights?
Did I dance on the bar?
Did I start a fight?

Now wait a minute
Things don't look to familiar
Who is this cowboy
Who's sleepin' beside me?
He's awful cute, but how'd I
Get his shirt on?
I had to much Tequila last night

CHORUS
Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys?
Did I shoot out the lights?
Did I dance on the bar?
Did I start a fight?

All those little shooters
How I love to drink 'em down
Come on bartender
Let's have another round
Well the music is playing
And my spirits are high
Tomorrow might be painful
But tonight we're gonna fly

CHORUS
Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime
Every time we get together
I sure have a good time
You're my friend
You're the best
Mi amigo

CHORUS
Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys?
Did I shoot out the lights?
Did I dance on the bar?

Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine

First - I didn't have any tequila last night.
Second - There were no cowboys in my bed this morning. (except me - Go Pokes!)
Thirdly - I rarely do shots and if I do it is a Buttery N*pple. I prefer Hard Apple Cider or Margaritas.
Lastly - Why? Why was that stuck in my head this morning? What triggered it?

Who knows.

Heh?

Overheard in the Student Union Today...

Person 1 - How do you pronounce your last name?
Person 2 - Bo-shay.
P1 - Is that French?
P2 - No, it's Portugese.
P1 - What does it mean?
P2 - I don't know. But in German it means (long pause) something.

Aaaaalllrighty then.

Cars!

The students. They are back. But is isn't so much them. It is their cars. In just a few days the automobile population of this town increases by about 10,000 (I'm guessing). Parking on campus is a joke. They pretty much park wherever they want the first few days. Not a spot? Not a problem. They just make one up.

We are supposed to park by color. Your permit is blue? You park in the blue lot. But how do I know it is a blue lot? See that teensy-tiny little 6X10 sign there? That's how you know. If I were running the place, I would paint the concrete parking thingies the color of the lot. Blue lot? Blue concrete thingies. Silver lot? Silver concrete thingies.

And don't even get me started on having to pay for a permit so I can park where I work.

I have to go to another building now for a presentation. A co-worker is driving me over and dropping me off 'cause there is no way I could park anywhere near the building. I hope she remembers to pick me up! I better take by umbrella...

Seriously...WTF?

I'm trying to check the boy's e-mail (which I haven't checked in ages) and I totally forgot his password. I click on "Forgot Password?" and this is what I get. (I edited out the provider's name.)

"Need Your Password?

Send an email to password@****.com. You will receive a response in one business day. If you write from a non-**** email address, we ask that you supply us with your **** username and your 4-digit PIN for verification purposes. If you are a **** Platinum member you may choose instead to provide us with the last 4 digits of the credit card to which you bill your **** account. If you paid by check or money order, you will need to provide your Platinum account number for verification.

If you don't have a PIN and would like to create one, click here. Please note, however, that you will need your password to create one."

Sooooo let me get this straight. I can't use a different provider's account to access my password unless I have a 4-digit PIN, but yet I can't get a 4-digit PIN unless I have my password...

Good Lord people. That makes no sense what-so-ever!

Yep.

Yep. I tried to upload photos twice and it shut down my browser. I guess I'll just write here and you can go to my flickr account to see photos.

I think I'm gonna move.

I may be moving my blog to here. It depends. Last time I tried to add photos, it kept shutting down my browser.

We'll see.
