When it rains, it pours:a recap of my past week when I didn't blog
Yes, I haven't blogged in over a week. Yes, I have a million excuses of why I didn't but I won't bore you with too many details, just the short recap.
Did you ever notice that the only time you ever get phone calls is when you don't have your phone on? I accidentally locked my phone in my car on Thursday and bingo, had 4 messages waiting for me Friday morning. I NEVER get that many calls in one night. I rarely get that many calls in one week!
Let me see, my week at school. Well, I was accused by parent of withholding their sons lunch from him. That was a new one. How stupid can you get to accuse your child's teacher, the school secretary, the head cook, and all the lunch aides of refusing to feed your child lunch. It was so ridiculous, I really wanted to smack this parent in the face.
Second school item, we had a shooting in one of our high schools. Just in the middle of the hall one kid pulled out a gun and shot another kid. No worries though apparently, because our district didn't bother to inform parents or teachers of what happened and we still have gotten no follow up e-mails on the incident. Yeah, I feel safe. Being that any nut that decided to walk in our building with a gun would probably get to my classroom first (I am the closest to the front entrance), I guess we think it could never happen again.
I have picture frames all over the floor of my house because we still haven't gotten around to putting them on the walls. My big sis helped me arrange how they are going to go and I am afraid if I move them, I will forget. So, the are still sitting all over my house waiting to be hung.
Had my first non-family company at my house Friday night. I think I can count best friends as company. Jewels and I enjoyed a lazy evening and then decided we were too old and tired to stay up until 3 like we used to so we went to bed.
Good news, I have finally been passed down the 1st season of Gilmore Girls to enjoy. It went through both of my sisters, my mother and now me. I had to wrestle my dad for it, he thought he should get first dibs but I won the battle for now.
My brother/roommate has been I don't know where until some unholy hour in the morning for the past two nights. What joy is mine. Sometimes living with him is just like living alone, there is no one else here anyway.
Came up with the storyline for my next great Christian novel. Too bad I never manage to finish one and attempt to get it published. I only have about 6 in the works now. Most of them have characters, and plot and about 10 pages written. I need to spend more time at my computer that doesn't involve blogging.
You do realize this is why I named my blog Becs Babble. Here I go babbling again. After a night of sleep, I'll see what else I can babble about in the morning.

Thanks for letting me spend the night. It was really fun. And I think you and I did a little better than Maryann and I. I'm pretty sure we were both conked out at 9:00. Yes - you read that correctly. Nine O'Clock. But in our defense, Maryann still lives on Michigan time, and I had jet-lag.

Put sticky notes on the picture frames so I remember where I said they should go and we'll make that our Christmas project. You know I LOVE doing that anyway. I just couldn't get the stupid nails to stick in the wall!
Ah - Gilmore Girls! I LOVE that show! Whitty conversation always wins me over. :-) I just finished season 4 and season 5 comes out in December and I get to watch season 6 every Tuesday night! Yeah!
So, what's the new plot line? Wait - don't tell me until I'm done with my stupid thesis...I don't want to steal any good ideas! :-)
Thanks for calling tonight. I REALLY needed the talk. I felt tons better after shooting the breeze with you. Love you.
