mean girls assembly at our school

something happened the other day that was SO straight out of mean girls! we had a bullying assembly..or rather a non-bullying rally. and the counselor asked , "who in here has been bullied or seen someone be bullied before?" and i was waiting for regina george to stand up and say she shouldn't have to be there.

and when i was in class i heard another teacher break the silence of my classroom by saying in a loud-ish voice, "why am i hearing voices?" i chuckled and thought to myself, 'sometimes we teachers say things that make us sound a little crazy.'  it's even a bit funnier that i remember saying those exact words before and not even thinking twice.

today we had our fire drill and evacuation drills. so fun. i wish we could do them more often. (periods). anyhoo, while we were at the ever-so-generous church behind the school, i took this picture-they have a great cross ensemble.
much brighter and more beautiful in person.
i'm sure that the cars that had to wait for us to cross the street were none too happy (but you have to admit, it's probably more fun to see quirky children crossing the street rather than a boring old train), but it's cruel and unusual punishment to try to keep children quiet for an hour and 15 minutes! boo.

tomorrow is hat day, so i'll wear my jamaica hat and be sure not to refer to it as a bob marley hat.

so...i may or may not have tried it on tonight and still be wearing it. bruno wants one. chaco said he doesn't want his hair to get messed up-he's somewhat conceited and vain that way.

the wind is picking up outside a little and the cool is moving in for the night and chaco has decided that he wanted to cuddle; i love it!

why do the bowflex exercise machines look like such great inventions and easy-to-do? i wish i could imagine myself into good shape! anyone ever own one of these machines and actually use it? would love to hear about your experience! until then i'll just keep pretend-exercising!

the winds of change are blowin' in
