Another Few Weeks Gone

As Halloween draws nearer, the leaves are absolutely flying off the trees... The weather is cooler, and with that, the hot tub is even better =D

Last week, I didn't have much to say... It was an entirely boring week...

This week......... well...... Pretty much the same. But, there were a few things to talk about...

First off, CONGRATS TO GOOFY GIRL! If you follow the boards, she had a baby girl EARLY this morning... Like 2 o'clock early! Hopefully I'll get to see the new baby in January =)

Also, since you're looking at this post, you can see we have a new layout! No particular reason for the change... Just like to keep things fresh ;)

We also have a new poll... I don't plan to post the results... I was curious and I found the results pretty interesting. Thanks to all of you who provided answers to my question! =D

So.... let's seeeeeee..... What was real life like this week?!?!

Swine flu is pushing through my school, horns first! I've had a few people in some of my classes get it, so it's moving closer..... Honestly, I'm not really worried about getting it... Even though it won't be particularly nice with my asthma, I refuse to let the media hype get to me...

And, like last year, there are multiple diseases going around at once... My sister had a fever all week (except today), so I had to be careful... No worries there. I steered clear of her all week.... Believe it or not, it wasn't hard to stay away from her ;)

I don't have a costume for Halloween either! And it's tomorrow!?! AGGG!

I felt bad when people showed up today wearing banana suits, tin foil suits, gorilla outfits.... Even Darth Vader outfits... The full ones!

That's okay... My mom said she could buy a plain white shirt that says "COSTUME" on the front just for me ;)

...I wonder how much candy I'd get if I went trick-or-treating ;D

We had a lot of finals this week... The quarter officially ended today. The tests were all pretty easy.... Then again, the tests here aren't really a challenge...

So.... that just about covers it...

Get a ton of Caramel Apple Pops for me! I LOVE THOSE THINGS! ;D

A White.... Thanksgiving?! SA-WEET! =D

As some of you know, I went out of town this weekend and I am currently spending it with my family in Spokane, WA (A.K.A. The setting of my tick story this summer)... We got in at about 9 p.m. on Wednesday night and had a warm night in my uncle's basement... We woke up and had a fairly good breakfast and we spent much of the morning getting us all ready and watching "The Polar Express"... (A little early to be watching Christmas movies, but now the stores consider it officially the holiday season, I guess ;) Then our family started arriving. Cousins and aunts and uncles and grandmas and grandpas came flying through the front door! The turkey was in the oven and everyone was either watching football, playing foosball, or in the kitchen getting ready for the dinner. I was known as Popeye in foosball and my cousins, sister, and I invented a new foos-game called "Rapid Fire" when we spun all of our players at rapid fire when 4 balls were in play at once. Then, at about 3:30, everyone said that dinner was almost ready. I kept telling them that was WAY too early, but with pie and all the other stuff we were eating, I guess we needed extra time to digest so we could eat more ;D We had a nice dinner and dessert. It was my grandpa's birthday, so we watched him open presents. He never got a cake, but we all shared some pumpkin pie..... MMMMMMMMMMM......... !! And all night it was snowing and we got to have a white Thanksgiving =D

I thought it was a pretty good Thanksgiving with family =D
