I've had two fun social nights in a row, which yay. Both involved karaoke, and last night included good crab cakes and an OMG scrumptious eclair... which was from the Land of the Giants so split generously among five of us.
Today is football game, more good food and company, and then I go into work after all the people are gone and hunker down for the next three full days until T-giving. Good planning on my part to have a fun, relaxing weekend first, I think.
Way to go, Emmett. Pretty dress, sarameg! Dana, I hope things are looking up. ita, hope you're getting/got what you need.
My radio just came on, playing Christmas music. Shouldn't surprise anymore. Ah, well, maybe I'll just go with it and not grumble about the early this year. Maybe.
Today, an exciting combination of laundry, going to the office to do paperwork and Sorting All The Things.
Hey Cash, the only other spectator for the krav test last night was a young woman named Sara, whose friend was testing.
We chatted for a while, and she mentioned that used to do Kung Fu and have all the bruises up and down her arms.
I mentioned that Emmett had just given me his mouth guard because it was bugging him and I hoped he didn't get his front teeth knocked out.
She said, "I had my front two teeth knocked out. Actually, I just got implants this year."
Me: "How'd you do that?"
Sara: "Roller Derby."
Happy birthday, Sparky! I hope it's festive.
Sorting All The Things is kind of exciting, conceptually, to me. Or, yeah, no, I guess it's really Having All The Things Sorted that would bring the joy.
Happy Birthday Sparky!
I'm having buyers remorse about the Mixer. I may return it. I can't quite justify the money and more importantly I have no space for it!
They let Emmett test without the mouthguard? I don't think we'd have let an adult do that. Really certainly not a kid.
Jen, the ER visit was quick and pretty efficient. I was worried because the doctor's bedside manner was appalling (her tone of voice screamed "checklist") but apparently she didn't care enough to question my file, so that was straightforward. The nurse had a bit of a qualm about giving me my meds the most effective way, but chose an only slightly less effective way and was very nice (except for the "You're single, right? You're always alone here..." comment) so I forgave him that.
Me: "How'd you do that?"
Sara: "Roller Derby."
Yikes! This is why I bought a Shock Doctor mouthguard.
