Jun. 10th, 2010 11:26 amSelf, you're a whole lot smarter than you thought you were. Case in point? Every trip is a trifecta to me - housing, car, how-you-got-there - and I just got reminded that I was a smart little penny and bought the trip to KY back when we got the tax return because I was smart that way. Only thing undone is the car rental, which unless you priceline, you don't pay upfront (and company has a corporate account that pets me on the head, so guess what I did).
Yes, you think ahead, you can afford eggrolls. I'll remind my fella of that.
I should be teaching diabetes training. Two people I know just got diagnosed and the education mentioned is just what-inducing. This is not easy stuff to get your head around and if you're newly diagnosed, you're NOT going to be at your best for retention and comprehension...and what I'm seing is just 'throw it at the wall and see what sticks.'
Teach it, try it, revise, repeat. Oh, and is your trainer also diabetic? Oh...has a diabetic friend or family member. Oh. Sat in a classroom on it? Oh. Right. Not even that. *facesmacks* Swear, some of the stuff sounds like 'insert miracle here' in a box, and it's more than thirty years old.
I may call Cliff's old doctor just to vent. He'd understand.
( Cutting because I care )
I'm forming some ideas about what kind of birthday I want to have this year - since it's one of those 'decade' markers (and it's the 50th, if you're asking). I'm thinking the party I've never had. See, I don't think I've had a party with invitations and all that since I was 12.
I'm thinking OMG call the cops to shut it down block party. Taiko drummers, fire dancers, get Tommy and Brandon some mikes and break out the karaoke machine NOISE. A cake the size of my car, and cupcake satellite towers. Carnival games - with good prizes. Photo booth. Tiki drinks. LOUD Hawaiian shirts. I'll start it at 10:30 in the morning and go until we drop from exhaustion. PUNCH by the VAT. Souvenier mugs, maybe.
*ahems* November 14th and that's a Sunday. Save the date. I'll have to see what kind of budget I can scrounge up.
I can tell you now I have always had an Amazon wishlist (and one at ThinkGeek), but in particular? If you can find me a Yellow Submarine cookie jar, or a lucky waving cat one? Yeah. Full of bath fizzies? Even better.
First one to show up with a black balloon gets tossed in the pool. NO HILLS.
The rest is subject to change without notice. ^^
