TGIF - Random Ramblings
TGIF! What a week, finishing stuff at work, getting ready for the trip, and getting ready for Jason’s birthday party. I’m SOOOO glad it’s Friday!
Jason wanted to know why they didn’t call giraffes long necks. He figures it would have been much easier for people to remember than “giraffe” since they do have long necks and giraffe is just a word that doesn’t mean anything.
All the plastic army men have been stuffed inside a tank pinata and are ready to attack the kids when they break it open.
All the clues are printed and ready to be hidden so the kids can rescue the kidnapped cake.
It hasn’t rained for 2 weeks, but it’s supposed to rain hard today - just in time for the birthday party so I can have 10 kids in my house for 2 hours! WOO HOO - good times.
All our bags are packed and ready for a 6:00 a.m. departure tomorrow. I’ve NEVER been packed early - I always pack the night before. This is weird. I don’t like it.
Tainted Love was on the radio on my way in to work today.
Oh yeah - and Jason threw up last night, so we probably won’t have that birthday party today I talked about above and we may not be leaving for our trip tomorrow if he keeps being sick.
UPDATE: Jason is still sick so we postponed his party until after vacation. He’s so disappointed - I feel bad for him
Now I have an army tank cake that nobody can eat . . . my good friend is going to take it to a company picnic with her tomorrow
She’s also coming up to celebrate with Jason tonight anyway - Queen Taunya rocks!
UPDATE: I spilled Coke on my keyboard and had to get a new one. The important keys like x, w, and q continued to work, but some unimportant ones like u, o, and r decided they’d had enough. IT told me to enter an issue to get a new one - that’s kind of like telling someone to drive their car to the shop so they can tell you why it won’t run. This is what the message I sent them looked like…
e, d we ave an exta egnmic kebads laing aund? Mine stpped wking. Nt all f the kes wk. It culd ave someting t d wit me spilling Cke n it abut 10 minutes ag.Â
They got a good chuckle out of it. Hey, 9 years with the same keyboard isn’t a bad investment!
TGIF!















I hope Jason feels better so that you can have the planned party and be able to leave for your trip tomorrow.
OH NO! I hope Jason is better!
[...] We did end up leaving on vacation, but not until 6 hours after our scheduled departure because little dude was still not feeling well Saturday a.m. Since our drive is a 14 hour drive, we decided to get a hotel room Saturday evening [...]
Lots of laughs about the keyboard spill.
