Important News

Here it is:

I made dinner.

It created this many dishes, none of which I had to do because my boyfriend is the best boyfriend.

Also, said boyfriend tries to pull terrible pranks on me.

Piece of Evidence #1: Putting a large, feathery dream catcher on our bed.

I told him that I hate the dream catcher. 

Then he told me that his grandmother purchased it for him on real Navajo tribal land while driving from Texas to Sacramento to visit him when he was a little boy.  

This was no prank.

You can't make someone get rid of his real Navajo grandma gift.

But I don't have to like it.

I'm Re-posting This Because it is SOOO IMPORTANT!

Please Help!  We Need an Art Center!

Hi there.  So I have spent the last week digging through piles of furniture, boxes, and legos in an effort to set up my new classroom, and I have made a gruesome discovery:

THERE IS NO PAINTING CENTER!

I know, I know.  I nearly fainted when I realized how bad the painting situation is.  I'll give you a moment to recover..............

Better?  Good.  Okay, so here's the thing:

Fish On

In the Sierra Nevadas there is a town called Sierra City.  In this town there is a "resort" called Harringtons.  In this "resort" there is a small cement pond.  In this pond there are 1,000,000 over-fed trout stuffed to near explosion with dog food-ish pellets that are sold out of a candy machine right next to the cement pond.  Here's how that went:

My hand extended to feed the vicious beasts

Quickly, I pulled my arm back.  Lee gripped my shirt for additional safety.

This angle nicely features the dog food dispenser

Piranhas (ie: Dog food-fed trout)

The best part of this sign is the last line. "CAUTION: Raw trout may be harmful to dogs."

What if the trout is brimming with dog food?

Inside the restaurant I looked over the menu and saw that Harrington's was serving "trout from our very own pond!"  

I chose the steak.

Sometimes My Brother is Very Awesome

I was riding in the car with my brother tonight and one of those rare moments occurred where he started talking to me about his real thoughts and feelings.  During the conversation he said to me, "I think it is so cool how you and Lee are both working hard to support each other."  See?

Sometimes, my brother is very awesome.

PS: House update, camp pictures, and job update to come soon.  Right now I am too busy putting together furniture.
