procrastination update

it's 11:26pm and tomorrow begins a week of parent conferences that i don't feel ready/prepared for and so instead, i've decided to procrastinate and update the blog! anything to put off grading their science notebooks. grading = BOO.

since the economy is on the downward spiral, i have been doing my part, as a responsible and caring citizen, to stimulate the economy. as j.yee would say, lord and behold:

while at costco, the box wouldn't fit upright into the back of gilbert's 4runner. i was seriously sad when we walked back towards the return line. later, i was deliriously happy when the costco guys said it was okay to transport it on its side, glass facing up. that deserves a w00t.


i showed AMAZING restraint and waited until black friday deals were released, on the off chance that a better deal might surface and save me some money, but there was nothing worth venturing out at the butt-crack of dawn for. (can i end with preposition there? oh well, moving on...) the kwon clan (grace & joe + babies javier and eduardo - still in the belly) came over yesterday and set it up for me. i did nothing except drool over the TV. joe did 99.9% of the work. handy friends. yay.


also in honor of stimulating the economy, i went to target today to return some things and get lots of closet organizer and storage things. i spent hours re-organizing my closet and giving my room a good cleaning. anyone who's seen it in the last year knows it was NOT GOOD. i no longer have to be ashamed - i can leave the door to my room open. yay!!! now i just have to maintain it. boo.

next on my list is to take time to update photos from the last 12+ months. whoops.
