Friday Follow Up

The week in review: Nothing too exciting this week. I had a British Literature exam on Thursday and I think I kicked some poetic ass!!! Sweet!!! I had some bloodwork done this morning, which is the worst thing in the world to me. I'd rather get puked on. Speaking of... my baby is sick with a runny nose and fever. No puke. whew! Dodged that bullet. My dog has taken a new liking to digging in the back yard, which now looks like a mine field. I helped my husband brew another batch of home-made beer - Cherry Wheat. It's currently aging in a bucket in the bathtub. Hey, where do you keep your bucket of brew? Other than that, it's been a fairly normal week. Here are some questions and comments from the trenches:

This is my niece. I believe she is a future Girl Scout Cookie High Seller. I'm sure of it.

Your niece is super cute!!! Where does she get that adorable charm? From her mother? I don't see her as being much of a girl scout.... she doesn't seem to be the follower type. More of an individual do it her own way kinda girl. She does love cookies though.

When you wrote "ABC" I was trying to figure out who those initials stood for. I had not thought that you were actually talking about the "American Broadcasting Channel" (Or whatever they stand for?). That's crazy.

Yup, that ABC! We listed it on Craigslist and a couple of tv producers called us, came over with cash in hand and the deal was done. Sweet!

You're glasses will probably show up the day after your new ones arrive.
Living with Cavemen
Again, you spelled "your" wrong. You do that so I have something to nag about, right? That's so sweet of you, but really.... it's Y.O.U.R. Still haven't found my glasses, the charger with the extra battery stuck in it, or blue kitty. Also lost my kitchen timer. My new glasses shipped so I'm waiting for them to arrive. Hopefully soon!

I'm going to get this bumper sticker, what do you think?

I love it!!! And Jesus seemed to turn out ok.


Bossy is coming to San Diego on April 7! Are you interested?
Jenn
Midterms will be over... Lemme see if I can get a sitter in the city. Sounds promising.

Friday Follow Up

One of my favorite blogs, Because I Said So, does a thing she calls Sunday Shout Out. Its where she answers questions left for her in the comments. I kinda look forward to it and I’m thinking, why not take her idea and run with it? Think she’d mind?

So, here’s my version and I’m calling it Friday Follow Up, with my responses to comments from my blog comments and little updates.

Do they have OTB endless enchilada anonymous? Or enchilada rehab?
Living With Cavemen

I think there is a 12 step program for On The Border addicts. Will you be my sponsor?

Shouldn't you be reading Kubla Khan instead of blogging?
Jenn

Yes. I should be! I also have to read the last 2/3 of Tender is the Night, Merchants of Venice, Chapter 9 of Will in the World, and start writing both of my 20 page research papers that are due next month. But... I'm blogging.

Can't she take classes on-line?
Fannie-Mae

No, she’s only in high school. Attendance required. Darn the luck!

Sounds like Disney movies are working on taking you out.
Desirae

That’s why we are never watching Bambi!

Don't you love to hear stories like that from grandmas!! They are a wealth of knowledge. You need to get more stories like that and write them down mary!!
Alicia

My Grandma amazes me! Her stories always bring me back down to earth. I really would like to write up a collection of her stories. That would be a great memoir!

I was so scared I was crying at night, and there was a really mean nurse who told me to shut up and go to sleep. I WAS SIX!! Not that I'm bitter or anything.
Shelley

That’s horrible! Glad you aren’t bitter.

And a little follow-up….

My eye is healing but still has a light spot. Not sure if it’ll ever go away. I did get a few questions and a lot of people just look and then look again a little more intently. Now it just looks like a light smudge or a slight shadow. You can't tell anymore.

The tonsillectomy was scheduled for next month at the beginning of my daughter's 2 week spring break. She shouldn’t miss any school. She’s actually excited! How sad is that?
