At work today I came across a mini catalogue that had the word Heifer on the front. Clearly, I was intrigued because to me heifer is a funny word! I showed it to a coworker, Lynda, expecting her to giggle like I was...however she had seen this catalogue before! As I flipped through it she told me what she had purchased out of it. If you click on this link to Heifer International you will see what was not a laughing matter. In fact, when I tried to tell Jesse about this semi-funny story he had also heard of Heifer before and thus did not think my immaturity was funny.
I'm also going to start looking for my new festive background for my blog. Maybe something with turkeys...
On my way home we stopped at McDonald's and got my Nugget Mighty Kids Meal. I encountered one of my least favorite interactions where the drive thru person tells me that a drink is part of the meal yet charges me separately for it. My cousin Tyler had some great suggestions for how to get around that and get the nuggets, little bit of fries, and apple slices (for less money!). I have saved all of the toys from my kids meals and none of my students seem to be that interested so I can go without the toy! Of course now my husband is on his own for dinner tonight as I eat my 4th snack size Kit Kat.
I am watching Once Upon a Time...not super impressed nor am I that in to it. It's much too scattered and far fetched for my liking. I'm on the 2nd episode (which is on On-Demand), so I'll probably give it one more and see if a character grows on me. I really liked watching New Girl on On-Demand, but they only put the first few episodes on there and I'm too lazy/forgetful to DVR it.
I'm hoping to do some work from home - however the farthest I've gotten is to take out my work binder and put it on the couch next to me. Oh, and look at it a few times as I pause in my blog-musings.
Countdown to Thanksgiving: 23 days :)
