This Week's Hairbrained Musings (9)

Another week of moments and musings.

*The paperwork you have to fill out, and the orientation sessions you have to attend when starting a new job are designed to weed out the weak!  I mean, seriously-- if you still want to work for public schools after watching the blood-born pathogens video, you're either crazy or REALLY love your job.

*I don't need to keep buying expensive craft supplies.  A simple roll of tape, a little paint, and a good pair of scissors is all it takes to transform my recycling bin in the the coolest crafting kit ever!  Birdie and Princess have been repurposing plastic bottles as jack-o-lanterns, princess-shaped candleholders, and Pokemon all morning long.

*I like Starbucks as much as the next person-- as long as I'm not paying for it!  I prefer to get my liquid crack at a discount, like from McDonald's, or the free coffee pot in the teacher's lounge.

*Dear shopping malls, you all suck.  The end.

*Those indoor inflatables gyms may look clean, but let me assure you they are not.  In one 90-minute session, I observed every body fluid imaginable (blood, boogers, tears, poo, pee, AND vomit-- and I just wish I were exaggerating!!) deposited somewhere in that big bouncy room.  They should have paid me $10 for staying, instead of the other way around!

*Oh, the Olympics... two and a half weeks of nothing but re-runs and sickeningly athletic people on tv.  I'm getting depressed just thinking about it.  I should probably go buy more ice cream.

*The jean shorts that most teenage girls wear these days are nothing more than denim panties.  Come on, ladies-- really?!  You can't truly be baffled as to why teenage boys get all pervy around you, can you?!  I am pretty sure someone somewhere sells shorts that are longer than they are wide AND don't require a paint brush to put them on.  Just saying.

Until next time...
