Back at ya, Sassy!!

Funny that Sassywho (at Ineverleavethehousewithoutincident.blogspot.com) looks a little like Kelly McGillis in her profile picture - and Maverick is her American Gladiator name of choice. . .

This would have been a far more interesting love story. . . with much hotter love scenes, that's for sure. . .

The Sponge is OUT!

Leave tomorrow morning for Savannah and then off to Florida to teach and my sister's wedding. Was supposed to take the LSAT tomorrow . . . if I get time I'll post a logic question for you all to answer. But I'll be staying at a 5-star hotel at the expense of a company that Im not very fond of right now - so I may have to take huge advantage (mini-bar treats, anyone?) and have some good times - where Ill get drunk and post some really good logic questions, or most likely forget to post at all. I'm counting on you all to keep me up to date on KC while I'm gone . . .

Almost Famous

Will be on Kansas City Live this morning - so will that freakin cute kid from my last post - if you're interested. KCL is on 41 (don't have cable, so don't know what channel that is - but it's the NBC station) from 10-11. Don't miss out!! Sure to be the show of the century!!

Yeah, I'm a stage mom.

My kid is freakin hilarious.

I feel bad that she thinks that you're supposed to lip synch every song you love.

Except "Dontcha" by the Pussy Cat Dolls - she thinks she needs to sing that very loudly as we walk through the market.

She rules.

Oh, pick up lines really make me happy!!

If I was a tree and you were a squirrel . . .

would you bust a nut in my hole?

The left side is my side of the bed.

I get super excited about things really easily. I dont know - that's just how I am. I am an optimist to the core and the green straws at McDonalds for the Shrek the Third promotion bring me a little over the edge! But honestly, life is really so full of many things that can bring you down, but there are also so many things to get excited about. Like green straws . . . like new fitness curriculum for kids . . . like baseball games (especially the nachos) . . . like K-1's and 1099's (ooooh, taxes) . . . like sugar wafers showing up in the vending machine at work . . . like waking up with cute hair . . . like riding the train to Chicago with Elle . . . like buying graduation gifts . . . like not running out of gas when driving home from St. Louis . . . like longevity gifts and medical pens . . . like winning raffles you never knew you were in . . . like walking around downtown . . . like going to happy hour events with fake names and careers. Yes, the list could go on forever.

These are the things that wake me up in the morning and keep me up at night.

Don't really use the word suck that often.

Have to skip the LSAT in June – already life is getting in the way. I am going to Savannah for a work trip – a very enjoyable work trip, but nonetheless work – and I have to be there by June 11, the date to take the LSAT. Tried to get a late flight out, but being Savannah there are not many options. Thought I could fly to Atlanta a day early, take the test there and then fly on to Savannah – but even that won’t give me enough time. It really sucks. I guess it gives me more time to prepare for it, but I was so ready to go and do it. Have been taking practice tests – been scoring in the 160s and 170s (okay 171’s the highest, but still . . .) – am ready to go. It would suck to wait another 3 months – but maybe I can work on my reasoning skills and work on getting a perfect score. Where’s the fault in that argument?

Still sucks. I’ll be in Florida for a month, Savannah for a week, DC for a week and at band camp for 2. Not much time to improve my score, really. And I’m studying to get my EA which is all during that time. Oh well.

But it’s beautiful outside today. That doesn’t suck.
