M had a mishap at school. She was running down these wide stairs in the auditorium by the stage for band and her feet twisted up and she fell. She's okay, just a bruise on her knee. I can totally see her running like a spaz and making a spectacle of herself. She said it was pretty funny because the whole place was laughing. She laughed but inside was in some pain, part pain-part embarrassment. One kid said, "It was so funny one minute you were there and then you just disappeared." As she is telling me this I'm cracking up because I can totally picture it. So she would realize we all have stories like this I added my story of taking the plunge. When I was in high school and we had to walk from one building to the other and in between was a parking lot. It was very icy one day so of course I wore high heels and a dress. I was walking alone ( which made it so much worse because I didn't have anyone to laugh with about it) and suddenly one leg flew forward in the air, like a nice air kick, as the other leg followed. I landed right on my bumper and just sat there with a look of shock for a moment. I could have died! Luckily, some guy was nice enough to say, "Here, let me help you.", and he picked me up.
I was glad to hear M flowed with it. The ability to laugh at yourself is a sign of good character. At least, I think so. Here's a picture of the dorkus in a more favorable light. ( Now accepting funny stories of when you took the plunge at the laughing expense of others. I'm not sure if the drunk stories count. Heck, put them in there too, it's all a laugh.)


Today B comes home. For good. :-)

He flies in with Dad at 5:30. I was going to meet them at the airport but T has gymnastics so I'll have save my hugs for when I get back home.

I think pizza in on the menu. I don't think he got many pizzas there. The other times he was home I only allowed home cooked meals but I have noticed he's so tired on the first day home and yet very excited to get in the basement to work. I think pizza would be a nice treat for him and then I don't have to rush around trying to get a meal in his belly by 6p.m. Stucs has great pizza, maybe I'll pick one up from there. Better quality than say Pizza Hut or Papa John's.

I made a blog entry about alligators at myspace if you want to check it out. Lately, myspace is more fun because you can do more with your blog there. www.myspace.com/tblazer972

I haven't gotten papers regarding the Jackalope yet so I'm not quite sure what to think. I guess I just play the waiting game.
