oh my!

...that the circus is coming to town.  break out the lions, tigers and bears.  and by break out, i mean keep them safely away from me while still showcasing their amazing talents.  my all time favorite circus memory has to be when the husband was heckled by two circus clowns in the audience during our inaugural summer fair tour '08.  i laughed so hard i cried. 

black socks, they never get dirty

...for summer vacation and the opportunity to procrastinate doing laundry for weeks a little bit.  not really any different from procrastinating during the school year, but that's neither here nor there.  someone told me that when you have a baby, you start doing laundry every day.  every day?  that seems excessive.  someone needs to invent disposable onesies :).

mustaches of a feather

...for a busy weekend that included beautiful weather, copious amounts of chili and salsa, sparkling water, a bff turning 30, sunday morning yoga and father's-in-law day.  i wonder what they say about couples who wear silly mustaches together.  ridiculous forever?  something like that.

by any other name

...for the last day of school and the rose at the end of the tunnel.  to call it a challenging year would be the understatement of the decade, but i made it through and even scored flowers from a student.  dear miguel, the roses are beautiful and you made my day.  however, they do not negate your 31 tardies and the fact that i moved your seat 17 times bc you would not. stop. talking.  kit and have a great summer.

go kings go!

...to watch the hubby celebrate a kings' stanley cup victory.  they ended their season well, and i thoroughly enjoyed watching little madison quick at the post game press conference.  the composure that daryl sutter tries to keep as she marches back and forth waving the kings' flag is awesome.       

must be italian

...for the giggles when this box was delivered and i immediately thought, "fra-gi-lee."  thank you, christmas story, for humor that never gets old.  even if it's only june. 

golden girls and boys

...for the oldies who watch from outside their leisure world condos each memorial day morning at the laguna hills 5k.  their flag waving, cheeriness and general wrinkly adorableness make the gasping for air pleasant jog walking so much more fun.  i hope i'm that cute when i'm 90.
