Total awesomeness and my math class

I just got home from my Intro to Algebra class. It was awesome. First of all because I aced another test. Yes, I know, I'm awesome. Okay next, this totally happened in class:



Teacher: Blah blah blah.....
Japanese*-American student: blah, blah, question that has nothing to do with what we are talking about blah, blah
Teacher with a sigh: Blah, blah blah
Another student in class, we'll call her Awesome NR
Awesome NR: Gosh shut up already.
Japanese-American student: Did someone just say shut up or something?
Awesome NR: Yeah! It was me! Shut up and let us learn!
Teacher: Okay, we can talk about this after class.
Japanese-American student: I'm just saying I didn't need her to tell me shut up and blah, blah, blah, and what the hell is your problem anyway?
Awesome NR: Just let the teacher continue!
Teacher:Okay, we can talk about this after class.

At first I was just uncomfortable/embarrassed for this Japanese-American student and just looked at my desk with an "oh-my-god" look on my face. But after the teacher had like no reaction to this loud vocal confrontation that interrupted the class, and continued teaching us how to F.O.I.L, I became like that kid who can't stop laughing in church. The guy next to me couldn't look at me without giggling himself. I was seriously like breathing hard trying not to laugh. By the time the teacher told us to work a problem and then began to demonstrate another totally different problem and asked us what the hell he was doing, I was crying. I'm sure no one else thinks this is funny but come on, it was 8:30 on a Friday night. We were all tired from our weeks labor and then something so random happens. I love my MATH class. It's awesome.

On a totally different note. My daughter is going around wiping dust off the furniture and calling it fairy dust. Awesome. Here honey, there is lots of fairy dust over here.....


*the fact that she is obviously of Asian descent has nothing to do with the story, it's just a quick way to refrence the right person. She is totally American with no accent or anything.

So, I'm alive, I promise.

So I guess it has been awhile since I posted last. Unfortunately, I have nothing very exciting to report. I guess I did discover that if you are poor, the bank gets to tell you how much money you can spend in one day. Does that seem fair to you? We got our tax refund and headed to Costco to stock up on the necessities of life. We got to the register, $750. No problem, we have 3 times that much in our account. (Much, much higher than our average daily balance.)Declined! What? How can that be? My husband calls the bank and they tell him he can't use his debit card for more than $300 a day! I was so mad that I had to self medicate. My husband went back with the check book and had no further problem. We just had to burn a lot of gas getting there and back twice. Let me tell ya, this isn't the first time we have been screwed by our bank either. One time my husband pulled up to the drivethru and asked for twenty dollars and they gave it to him and he drove away. No big deal except that we didn't have $20 dollars and they didn't tell him and charged us a huge overdraft fee. I hate banks. They screw poor people. Why don't we have a credit Union in this small town? We have 6 banks, 5 liquor stores, and 4 bars. We must have a lot of rich drunks here in Gardner.

So other than that, I have been going to all my classes and getting fabulous grades so far. I can't believe I am saying this, but I LOVE school. It is so fun to do my homework. I feel like I'm playing at being a kid again. This time, however, I'm not doing my homework half assed like I did in high school. So good for me. You can say it too.

Emily Tagged Me

All right I'll play along but I have no one to tag. I'll answer the questions though.

10 years ago I was a senior in highschool which means I went to hardly any of my classes and I worked part time at Sconecutter.

On my to do list..laundry, clean the house, put finishing touches on my essay for my Composition class, finish homework for my computer class, write essay for my computer class, parent teacher conferences. I won't get it all done today.

5 places I've lived.. i have lived in three different houses in Sandy Utah. When we got married, we lived in a house that was over 100 years old that had been divided into three appartments here in Gardner. We lived in two of those appartments, not at the same time. Now we live in a beautiful new townhome. Still in Gardner. I guess technically that's sixplaces. Oh well.

5 jobs I have had. I worked at Sconecutter. then I worked for MArriott taking reservations for the Ritz-Carlton. THen I worked at Blockbuster. Then I got a job at express solutions where I met my husband. When I moved to Kansas, I worked for a little while at a Sleep Inn cleaning rooms. And that is all the jobs I have ever had in my entire life. And I have no idea why I can't get the italics off.

What would I do if I became a billionaire.. I would start paying off mortgages. My parents or any in the family. Then I would pick a struggling family and buy them a house because that happened to us. I would build a farm and become self reliant with animals and our windmills for making our own electricity. I would build a pool and hire someone to instruct wateraerobics for all my friends. That would be fun. I would give lots and lots of it away but I would keep lots too.

Bad Habits Sometimes I am really lazy. Sometimes I yell at my kids because they bug me. I can get really mean to my husband too. I throw my clothes on the floor when I get undressed.

Things I enjoy I enjoy reading and hanging out with friends talking. Yep.

Things people don't know about me... well, I am afraid to call people on the phone. If you get a phone call from me then consider yourself lucky.

Now I am tagging no one because anyone who reads my blog was already tagged by Emily. And one of them I can't get on their blog anymore. Am I going to get invited?(AMY i'm talking to you.) Sorry about the bad bold and italics. For some reason it's not letting me insert anything either. So sorry about the messy post. I can do better than this....usually.

Yummy

This is what I made for dinner on tuesday night. That's a shepherd's pie. It looked really good so I took a picture. Notice the stuffed animal and the toy cars that join us for dinner every night. It was yummy. I'm eating the leftovers right this second.

He is soooo HOT!

Yes ladies, he's cleaning the toilet. Can I just say that I find him so incredibly sexy when he cleans?

She's a beauty....

Every so often while I am shopping, I look at a shirt, and I exclaim, "That shirt is so ugly! I love it!" This happened to me again last saturday at JC Penny. Here she is...isn't she a gem? The best part...she only cost $2.99. Awesome.
