Murphy's Kids

For once we actually left the house and O. South High on a Friday night. Only me, Kristen and Jeanne were home and we decided it was time we got out more. First it was D-Hall, then we got a hankering for long island ice teas at Dave's. Dave's turned into the Blue Nile where we got to see Murphy's Kids perform and Janoodles caught a free t-shirt.
We also met a guy named Juan who is from Columbia (not Neighbor-Juan). After I told him I was thinking of moving to Hawaii, he kept coming back every ten minutes and telling us I should move to Hawaii, or rather that I HAD to move to Hawaii. Its pretty interesting to have a drunk Columbian guy tell you what to do with the rest of your life.

Sasha Fierce

I've never been a Beyoncé fan, but like Janoodle, I really like the new music videos by director Jake Nava. If I Were A Boy gets good at the end. Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) has some pretty amazing dancing too and such a cool concept! Both are by the same director. I tried looking up his other stuff but it wasn't as good.

Why would anyone knit that?

My friend Hope-The-Archeologist showed me really funny site. Why WOULD anyone knit that?When Janoodle saw the knitted poop picture on the site she said "Oh my goodness! lets knit poop and leave it lying around!!".

Can I have this house next?

Sled-arrific

Oh sledding, I hope I'm never too old. We went across the street and since they demolished the baseball diamond we now have the perfect steep, fast and treacherous, sledding hill. Needless to say there are going to be some sore bums tomorrow. We even met a guy who lives in a house-with-the-number-pi who let us borrow his awesome toboggan for a bit.

And Lisa showed Kristen and me a little bit of snowboarding skills. Hopefully snowboarding will be easier if we try it on real snowboards. Hopefully I will remember my warm, happy sledding thoughts now when the bruises set in tomorrow.

Ice cubes and pajamas

So I go in the Bathroom-that-is-always-full-of-laundry last night and Janoodle and Kristen are in there looking awful guilty. What are they doing? Dropping ice cubes in the toilet of course. Lauren's post explains this well. It was supposed to make snow come and school be cancelled and it must have worked because it snowed and school was canceled. I still had to go to work though. Real-Persons don't get snow days apparently.

recycled beads

Beads made from plastic bottles. I'm sure they take a long time to make but what a neat idea.We certainly have plenty of plastic bottles too.
