Scorpion Siting #2

So, I had my second scorpion today. I was sitting on the couch, watching TV, eating some fruit, when I looked down and there it was. On my leg. After doing a very interesting dance through my living room trying to get it off, I finally calmed down enough to realize that it wasn't going to let go of my jeans for anything. So I did what any person would do. I took off my jeans. (Yes, the blinds were open, but what could I do?)

Then I ran to my room to get the broom (and maybe some other pants) and spent the next 15 minutes poking the the previously removed pants. After torturing the scorpion this way with the fear of impending death, I killed it. That's right, I am now a twice scorpion slayer.

Now, with the threat gone, I got worried about how it managed to get on me without me noticing. I narrowed it down to two options. It was on the couch, and when I sat down it crawled on me. Or, it was on the jeans when I put them on. I went through the entire couch and there isn't any other ones in there, so I think it was probably on my jeans when I put them on. I had tossed them onto the floor the night before, and they do look pretty dark and comfortable. You know, for a scorpion. But that would mean I had a scorpion on me for about an hour wandering through the house doing stuff. Not a fun thought. However, if I go with the couch theory, then I will never be able to sit on it again. I think I'm going to go with the wandering around with a scorpion on me.

But the whole time, he didn't sting me. Maybe he thought I was one of those BFG's. Probably right up until the point when I killed it. Then, not so much. But, on the bright side, maintenance finally fixed my ceiling! Yeah for me!

New Job

Ok so I got a new job working for my friends step dad. I'm not sure if I will be quiting the theater or not. it all depends on rather they still want me if I can only work past five. But I will be able to get time off to go to wicked.

Happy Anniversary. . .

To Shannon and Rich!

Yeah!

Happy last day of classes, Holly!

Gah!

Okay, so...Sarah's dance recital is in May. They were supposed to have pictures April 21st. Costumes have been delayed, so pictures are now...May 5th. The day we were planning to be in LA. I would rather not miss pictures for something we've been working on since last fall... So, how do you all feel about rescheduling Wicked? Say, May 25-26th?

Sorry... *grumble, grumble*

Less than 100

You have less than 100 days left.

Do you have your chain up yet?

In Memorium

It is with deepest regret that I announce the passing of Black Sleeping Beauty, the fish. She (or whatever) lived in our house for a record 8 days. I even remembered to feed her. I'm thinking it was the water. Either it was too cool or too ditry (wow that little tank got cloudy fast). I was just going to change the water when I noticed Beauty taking a nap on the rocks. They looked all comfy. We held a wake, just in case, but Beauty went to the great fishbowl in the sky this morning.
