It's here, it's here! Finally, May has arrived. May of the birthdays, May of the anniversaries, of Mother's Day, and May of the VACATIONS! That's right peeps, the Baker Beach Extravaganza commences on May 18, three days post-anniversary, 9 days post-BB's birthday, and 11 days pre-cruise. Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait.
So I've been MIA for the last week or so, mainly because a lot's been going on and I just haven't had the energy to blog about it. But here are some highlights, followed by some lowlights for kicks.
1. I had my Silpada jewelry party. It was fun, people bought stuff, I got free jewelry. What's not to love?
2. Dad's birthday featured the best food ever. And Brian showed up in time for jokes and stories. Always the best part of a Davis family birthday dinner.
3. The slideshow and ode to Toney Bond were not only hits, they've been the talk of the school this week. Our creativity abounds and we're starting to get reputations for being witty and fabulous. As if we didn't have those before. Puh-leeze.
4. Tonight is my last night class. Ever. Or at least for now. I can go home every night after work and rest assured that no one will call me to ask me where the answer key is to the 6-way paragraphs, or why one of my students didn't show up. Thank god for small things.
UPDATE:
I never posted this blog, because I got busy doing other stuff and, well, I forgot. But I do have breaking news (and no, for the 35th time, I am not pregnant!!!):
Former President Bill Clinton will be in Smithfield tomorrow! I kid you not. He's going to be at the home of some friends of my parents (ok, "friends" is an exaggeration, but they do know them) at 1:30 Monday afternoon and hello?! I'm so going to be there.
To clarify: I do not like Bill Clinton. I do not like Hillary Clinton. I particularly don't like Chelsea Clinton (there's no need to be rude to strangers). I think anyone whose friends suddenly "disappear" after pissing them off is entirely suspect and completely sleazy (and probably has Mob ties). However, this is Bill Clinton. How often does star power like that, sleazy or not, come to Smithfield? Never, I tell you.
So I'm going. 10-hour days start tomorrow and since I only get 30 minutes for lunch, I'll probably have to take time off to go, but it's so worth it to me. If only I could find a date...all my Democratic friends that might actually enjoy it live far away. The rest of the people I know are Republicans and would rather watch paint dry than go.
I'm going to Rite Aid right now to buy a disposable camera and I'll report back tomorrow afternoon. I have high hopes that not everyone in Johnston County was invited, and therefore I'll have a good view of Slick Willy. But we'll see.
Stay tuned... the NC primary is Tuesday and a lot can happen between now and then!
