a moment of international culture

My dad is in Macedonia and he mentioned picking and also having a lunch of medlars. What are those I thought? A fruit that is picked after the first hard frost. It is brown in color and has been compared to a persimmon. It is my understanding also that it must sit and go through a process called "bletting". I hear they are delish.... there, I have shared my cultural moment with all.

Do you believe in the "paranormal"?

What do we make of ghosts and spirits? Are they real or are they our imagination? If you think they are real do you think we should be allowed to exploit the spiritual realm for entertainment? On VH1 you can watch celebs get freaked out as they go on missions in the most haunted places in the world. Also, would you go on one of these "missions" to see for yourself if there really are ghosts and spirits?

the end of the beginning

Tonight is the last high school football game for seniors here at T-town. It is going to be an emotional time with the boys having to end years of traditions, tailgate parties, sleep overs, practices, swimming after 2 a days, and much more. We play Bedford and all I can say is Go Indians!!!! One of the traditions for tonight is the seniors will bury their mouth pieces in the football field. I am going to be such a bawling mess! Actually all the parents are going to be! Good luck boys!

Would you??????

I was in a public restroom and the stall next to me was also occuppied. Her cell phone went off and for the next couple of seconds I heard her pushing buttons on her phone. She was text messaging, I am sure of it, while sitting on the pot. My question is : was it that urgent that you had to do it sitting on a public toilet? EEEWWWW! She was still pounding away while I was washing my hands cause the person she was corresponding with sent a message back (heard the beeps) and then I heard her beeping back on her key pads. Now the real question. Would you or perhaps have you, answered your phone while sitting on a public loo? Perhaps you did not answer the phone, would you text message? I vote no. Besides I thought you weren't allowed cell phones used in public bathrooms cause of the camera phones. Maybe I dreamt that though?

busier than ever, am i crazy?

I have not been able to post as frequently as I would like since I have a new schedule. I do however, try to check up on others and my email every couple of days at least. Let me list my excuses. I picked up another cleaning job in addition to the one I already do on Fridays. I added some part time work at the old Ford plant in Saline. Teaching T.S. Soccer 3 times a week and football once a week. Then add the baby ( not talking about the 3 I already have hee hee). What am I crazy?
