Bobbie asked for $30 in quarters yesterday.
Daisy had diarrhea for several days last week. She's pooping normal now though.
I have internet in the office now. That's nice.
Anna substituted for two weeks at the middle school. Her last day was yesterday.
I helped her come up with a unit on the history of metal for one of her classes. The last day of the unit was today, meaning the substitute that started today had to play several music videos of varying metal bands to the class in order to illustrate the different sub-genres of modern metal. The thought of this classically trained sub presenting death, thrash, and metalcore to a bunch of middle schoolers makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside.
Coming up with a unit on metal with Anna made me both happy and sad. I was happy that we were corrupting these kids, but I realized as we did it just how much we were having to skip over. Metal should at the very least be an entire semester course, not a week long unit of study.
Troy Tulowitzki homered again tonight. It would seem that he is finally coming around.
A lady who applied for an apartment a few months ago but was rejected because she told me she was 58 (you have to be 62), came back in today. Now she is telling me that she is really 62, and she was just lying to me before because she thought you had to be under 62 to live here. She told me she lost her drivers license so she couldn't prove her age. I let her fill out an application, but I told her that she would need to bring me a drivers license to be able to get the apartment. I even explained that all her information would have to be verified. She didn't seem phased.
Alice came by yesterday to tell me that her garbage disposal wasn't working. I messed with it and got it to start, but it made a horrible noise. So I stopped it and got a flashlight to look inside. There's a penny stuck in it. I'm going to have to take the whole thing apart to get the penny out.
Someone from church gave Anna's parents some liver. Anna's mom won't touch the stuff, so I fixed it tonight for her father. I'd never cooked liver before (I'd never actually tasted it before), but I guess it turned out edible. I wasn't bothered by the taste, but it just seemed really mealy.
Anna's sister graduated from college this month. We had a graduation party at her parent's house. I grilled burgers. Sarah thinks she is a vegetarian so I grilled bean patties for her.
Noah was baptized after church on Sunday. I hope he really understood it.
Bobbie came by the other day hopping mad. Someone had given her a Canadian quarter. She tried to use it to do laundry, but the machine wouldn't accept it. Naturally, this led Bobbie to conclude that everything that ever went wrong with the washers was due to Canadian quarters.

There are still people coming to this blog because of the GGW in NV. I feel weird about this.
When you said you helped with a lesson on the history of metal, I thought "huh, I didn't know he was into metallurgy." What does that say about me? -- other than that I only post comments when I've been sipping something special.
ReplyDeleteFYI Kidney has similar texture as liver but better flavor, although nothing good comes from eating filters.
Also, hurrah! for the pic of Chief.
