Quick update...

I'm pretty sure anyone who reads this, also talks to me regularly enough to know what's going on in my life... So it seems like the updates here are pretty pointless. But in case I have some unknown readers who are shy about letting me know they're out there.... Update: Went to Cousin Nathan's wedding as planned. It was a TON of fun, and if I can remember how to do it, I will be adding pictures here. Rebekah and I left around midnight to drive back to Madison because I thought I had a big test the next day (as indicated on my last update...) BUT IT TURNS OUT... I didn't have to take that test until the following week. Big waste of time, but there you are. I was really sick anyway, and welcomed the chance to go home to bed instead of taking a test. Yes, you read that right... sick again. This time: Double ear infection, sinus infection, AND upper respiratory infection. Good times. I'm now supposed to be on "complete vocal rest" for a month. Good luck with that, right? Not too easy for a Kindergarten teacher/choir director to be on complete vocal rest... especially in the Holiday Season! Oh well. We'll see how that goes. Anyway. So Mary and Jenny and I were supposed to go to Rocky Horror that weekend, but didn't because of me not having a voice. Instead we went out in downtown Racine, and that night ended up being the one that put me right on "the wagon". Drinking and the inability to make good choices combined for an interesting evening that we do not wish to repeat... so the following weekend, Mary and I didn't drink at all. And THIS weekend, we only drank a very little bit. Ok. Actually, it's not the weekend yet. But last night when we went out (night before Thanksgiving... EVERYONE is out!...) we only drank a little bit. But we had an awesome time anyway. I saw all kinds of people from high school, and even a guy from grade school. He actually remembered ME! I was pretty excited about that since I had a minor crush on him for ... ooh... about 4 years of grade school. We rode the bus together. (sigh). Yeah. So that was a fun night. Thanksgiving at Mom's house this year. Food was great! But there were several "no shows" from our normal group of 22+... only 12 this year. We missed our cousins - Danny, Steve, Heidi and Paula. Jacob, Nathan (Tamira!!), Rachel, Caleb, and Uncle James & Aunt Peggy. Tomorrow night, we're going out on the town again. And Saturday Caleb and Rachel are coming down for a visit. So it should be a good weekend, all in all. I hope everyone out there had similar good times, and I wouldn't mind hearing from you once in a while! I like to know who I'm talking to! I'll try to get those pictures up... and yeah... that's about it.

OH AND HEY!!! Congratulations to Mr. B. and The Park Panthers (High school) football team for winning the State Championship! That was an awesome game. Tons of fun to watch. Very exciting. Good job, Mr. B!
