I am sitting on our stairs with a glass of wine, front door open so the trick or treaters won't ring the doorbell and wake the baby up. They are still ringing the damn door bell. I am RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF YOU!!!!!!!! Sigh..Oh well..
I bought the Twilight Turtle today and I love it more than Maren does so I am pretty sure I am going to have to get one for our room. I don't think there is anything better than falling asleep gazing at the stars....
Keegan and Will are dressed like Darth Vadar and Bobbo Fett (again don't mind the spelling it's phonetic) and are roaming the neighborhood.
It must be about 20 degrees out, but Keegan is so bulked up in layers, he could withstand the elements if perchance we left him outside accidentally on purpose if his sugar high bothers us too much or his whining..I'm NOT saying we would do that or anything, I am just saying he's prepared, you know if there was an "accident".....
Okay so the run is over and all in all I am pleased with the outcome, as I did not hold up "the largest parade held in Minnesota every year" and I am NOT going to go on and on about my time and the course and my breathing and my shins and the terrain and the...no I'm not..well, of course I am..I am not facebooking, I have to have my "me" outlet just like everyone else on the planet:
There were a shitload of people running and it took forever to get around the fairies with wings. When I hit the mile marker I was disappointed to learn I had only run a mile. I can RUN more than a mile..I was just disappointed..that's all. When it was all said and done-
Just a minute I am being interrupted a lot by trick or treaters..and I am sorry but I am pretty sure I just gave candy to a 35 year old man. Is that okay? Go the bar, dude.
Okay, so all told, fine race. Time: 27:05. Status: 4 months after giving birth. Proud of myself: extremely. Very happy until I google good times for 5k's last night: 18 minutes. ARE YOU EFFING INSANE??????????????
Who wants to run that fast? Are you on fire?????????
Note to self: stop googling about running.
Have now had 5 students at the door. This could be good. This could be bad. Good: They will bring me presents on holidays.
Bad: They will tell the kids who hate me someday where I live and set our house on fire. Good: Kids do not hate me this year. ( I don't think. I am Ms. Jump around the room funny teacher. Am not pregnant and hormonal and need a drink teacher like last year.) Bad: Admin. hates me because I speak my mind and I work in East Berlin. Idea: Dig Tunnel from classroom to home: home being West Berlin, that way can just move smoothly from good place to good place. OOOOOH am remembering that movie about the East Berliners who dug a tunnel to West Berlin and the tunnel collapsed on them..horrible story. Never mind.
Am getting jumpy now as I watch my 3 1/2 year old and my 34 year old eat their loot. Small one is getting a cold and does not need any more sugar. Big one has been kind of crabby all weekend due to I am not sure what and I am pretty sure sugar is NOT what he needs..
No trick or treaters for 10 minutes. I am closing up shop here soon.
I miss my dad. I love this blog. I am writing again. Amen. Read the book of James. It helps tremendously. Well, okay maybe not to blog, but just in general. Look, where I am at right now, I need all the help I can get. Remind me to write about my mom soon. Boy am I thankful I have Linda..not so thankful that I inherited her upper lip..Maren is blessed in the lip department..Mom and I have NO upper lip..but anyway..another blog..I'm going to find that turtle..I love red wine..
shut up shut up..go to bed..
