....at school. I have a flat. I can't even begin to get the tire off. I know this from past experience. So, I've called Kenny, who is now probably thinking, "Curses! Why didn't I put her on my Triple A so she could just call them and I wouldn't have to mess with this!" Oh well, the best laid plans....
Saw Vince Gill on the 19th of September. It was outstanding. Him, about 8 guitars, and songs that I haven't heard in years. Yeah, he's still my get out of marriage free card. Kenny keeps telling me he really enjoyed the concert. I'm always surprised that he enjoys himself when I drag him to some crazy concert. He did in fact draw the line at 311 and Snoop Dogg though. I didn't really want to see Snoop Dogg in concert, but I would have loved to see 311. Sometimes I miss my college years.
Speaking of college years, I can say that I know someone who has won a reality show. I was still around the Music Department when Neal E. Boyd showed up. I happened to catch his audition this summer. I was flipping channels, saw him, kept flipping, and thought "That looks like Neal Boyd." Sure enough, it was. Kenny and I caught last night's performance and win while flipping back and forth between Criminal Minds and America's Got Talent.
Wish me luck. I'm going to buy my wedding dress this Saturday. My mom, my sister, possibly 2 aunts now, Sebrina, maybe Andrea, maybe Carmel, 2 assorted friends who've known me for a long time, and Robbie and Mellissa (yep, young kids are coming along - this should be interesting) are headed to the bridal shop at 10:30 on Saturday morning. Robbie's big request for this weekend - Cheesy Chicken, Fruit Roll-ups, and chili dogs. That's what I call the meal choice of champions! Kenny's making a small batch of Cheesy Chicken and a large pot of chili since it's turned cold and we'll be feeding a bunch of people. I'm in charge of the corn muffins, buying the fruit roll-ups, and making sure we have enough breakfast food to feed everyone. I'll let you know how it goes. Right now, the big debate is veil or no veil. I'm not sure what I want to do, or how I want to wear my hair, etc. I guess I need to start thinking about it and figure it out. It just seems weird to do so in October when we aren't even getting married until May.
Speaking of October, I can finally break out all of my Halloween decorations in my classroom. Our school still lets us decorate for Halloween and I wore my first pair of Halloween socks yesterday. I'm getting quite a collection and it always helps when Target has a whole bin of them in the dollar spot. Teachers love the dollar spot - believe me, I hit it every time I go to the store. I'm considering picking up some pumpkins from the Farmer's market here. I know I'll have to wait until closer to Halloween to carve them, but there are some really cool pattern books available at Michaels for pumpkin carving. Halloween is probably my favorite holiday. It doesn't stress me out like Christmas, it falls on a Friday this year, and it is mostly about having fun.
Now, I've got to get out there and figure out what I'm going to do about my car. Hopefully it will be an easy fix, and not cost too much. Oh well, life goes on.

Hey, Debbie! Best of luck with the dress shopping this weekend. I know Sebrina is excited about being there with you. I hope I get to see you and Kenny soon, but this weekend I had already made plans...that's probably a good thing for you because it sounds like you are going to have a full house! Anyway, I'll talk to you guys later. Enjoy the chili!
Have fun at the bridal store...I say try on same veils/headpieces with your dress. See if anything clicks with it. I enjoyed looking at the store you are shopping at...the "modest" selections are all so pretty and also perfect for Catholic brides!
