Strike a Pose

This is a picture of my sister's kids from a couple years back. It still makes me laugh out loud when I look at it.

How did I forget to mention this?

Laterly

Oh, hello there. I know, I know. It's been a really long time. But the good news is that I shaved my legs. It's been a little while, perhaps three weeks or so, but that doesn't matter. The point is that I shaved them.

This last month or so has been really busy. I had to go to a conference in Denver for work. Spending five straight days smiling and acting excited about history can wear a person right out. (Not to say that I'm not excited about history. Just that sometimes you want to let what happened in the past, stay in the past and "live in the now."—Thank you Garth.)

Then a few days after that, husband and I went away for our one-year anniversary to a little place we like to call Maui. Because, you see, it is actually Maui. The weather was grand. The fish were friendly. The service was great. My freckles reappeared. And then we came home. (enter feelings of depression) What's the deal with snow, right?

So last night we went to see Harry Potter with my little eleven-year-old friend. I confess that I gave up on the book series halfway through. I have book series commitment issues. But the movie scared me half to death. ****SPOILER ALERT**** Everyone dies! And you jump ten feet out of your chair more times than you'd ever care to. Also, Harry's kind of a weird looking boy/adult.

I had a check up with my doctor on Tuesday, and he called me a failure. Good things he's handsome and has a slight southern drawl, or I'd be upset.

Aside from that, we've had so many fun things happening with family and friends in town, oh, and my perm experiment, that it's just been hard to keep track of it all or find the time to blog about it. But rest assured that fun is being had and calories are being eaten.

I have to stop typing now because my fingers are frozen.
