How can this not make you laugh!




Seriously, I LOVE the Muppets!!
So, I went and saw New Moon last night. It was much better than Twilight. And yes, this is how Jacob Black spent most of the movie. Yep, it is A LOT better than Twilight.

Friday thoughts and things...

1. I rolled out of bed and fell onto the floor. I laughed and got back into bed. Who does that?
2. I am not sure if my life is getting super pathetic, but one of my students peed in the toilet every day this week. I was simply overjoyed.
3. I think it is funny that my cute 13 year old nephew's facebook page says "In a relationship". I can't wait for that to happen to me!
4. My nephew is so stinkin' cute....along with all of my nephews. The girls are going to be beating down their doors.
5. I ate Cookie Crisp at about midnight. Oh well.
6. I like to see how long I can go without washing my hair. Is that totally gross or what?
7. I am still thinking about my new Zumba instructor. Latin men are like an encouragement card from God. He must know that sometimes things get a little crazy for us and we need some motivation to keep going! Thanks.
8. I had a crazy dream that I was in a bike race. It was really hard and I had to get off my bike to push it up a hill. I don't ever want to dream that again.
9. I really try to avoid chocolate, but it somehow always finds me and taunts me. I just have to nibble.
10. I wish I didn't think about things so much. Ugh. My brain hurts sometimes.
11. Why am I so scared to share?
12. I am exchanging my class picture with a cute fella today. It's like being back in junior high. So thrilling.
13. I wish I could dance like the people on "So you think you can dance". How cool would that be to be at some lame-o place like studio 600 and bust out all sorts of cool moves?
14. I discovered the show "Glee" and I think I am going to LOVE it.
15. Chapstick really is a necessity of life.
16. Johnny Depp really is one sexy beast, but his picture on the cover of People looks sort of like a creepy creeperson.
17. I think my back hurts a little from falling out of my bed this morning.
18. I took one of my former students to Kung Fu on Wednesday. I think I laughed the whole way through. It was so cute and the kids were funny without even trying.
19. I can't wait until the Thanksgiving break. I love my students, but man, they have been energetic.
20. Freaks and Geeks is a hilarious show. It ended before it should have.

Zumbatastic!!

I love me some Zumba!! It makes me happy and that's pretty freaking great. I tried out a new instructor tonight. Is it bad that I want to go back not just because he is a good teacher, but because I like watching him shake his butt and take off his shirt?

The Next Jackson Pollock or maybe, Picasso!


Boo had a birthday. She is now 8...and totally great! For her birthday, she asked me to take her to the fab Color Me Mine. I can't turn down a kid that wants to learn to express themselves through art, so I agreed. Boo painted a penguin, but not your run of the mill black and white variety. Nope, this penguin was splashed with colors that all the other penguins would totally envy. Seriously, what penguin wouldn't want to have two purples, blue, green, and yellow adorning their body? Penguins of the world are green with jealousy! I loved that she didn't want just a regular looking penguin, but that she wanted something a little more sassy...just like how she is! It was a fun, fun time! Happy Birthday, Boo! xoxox

Friday the 13th and Field trips.....

Whenever Friday the 13th rolls around, I am reminded of an experience that happened to a person near and dear to my heart. This person was in, I think, 1st grade and going on a field trip. She was pretty nervous about the whole thing, but then it just happened to be Friday the 13th. What if she came upon a black cat or the bus drove under a ladder or someone opened up an umbrella on the bus? There were all sorts of crazy things that could have happened and she was having none of it! So, my mother, in all her wise and motherly ways, gave this person a little pill to calm her down. It was probably some kind of placebo pill(or advil), but the pill did its magic and the field trip went on without a hitch. She may be embarassed, I hope not, because I think its a super cute memory!!

The best part of today....

Was when one of my adorable students was so excited and happy that he fell over in his chair. He got right back up and giggled about it. Oh, M is so stinkin' adorable!! It made me laugh and it made my day.

40 years and still going!







I LOVE Sesame Street! These are just a few of my favorite scenes from Sesame Street....there are certainly lots more! I could go on and on about how much I love this show. I think I love Grover and Ernie the best. Who is your favorite? Happy Birthday, Sesame Street!

Halloween!


My friends and I do a group theme every year. This year we were Cereal Killers...yep, you read that right! Cereal Killers. We each were a different cereal character and then chose a weapon of destruction! I think we look absolutely fabulous! And, we had a most spectacular Halloween.
