Dave and I just got back from a charity event with the Blues hockey players. It was pretty cool to meet some of those guys. They were all so down to earth and nice. They probably thought we were rich and would be high bidders at the auction. Sorry we disappointed them, we were just there for the free food and drink. We got our tickets on a technicallity. Someone backed out at the last minute and a guy that deals with Dave through work called him last minute with extra tickets. I was talking to a friend of mine while I was getting ready. I mentioned that I was out of hairspray, she was so sweet, she brought me some. I had her take a few pictures of me and Dave before we left since we were so gussied up. I would post the pictures on the blog but for some reason my camera has deleted them and replaced them with some fat old people that I don't recognize. They even had on the same outfits as me and Dave. What a coincidence!!!!

I have a paper to write tonight for my computer class that is due tomorrow. I am pretty tired so I doubt my paper will be spectacular, I am just hoping I can stay awake long enough to write it. Lucky for me I drank water all night so at least I will be writing my paper sober.

Kelsey was home sick today. Erin came home from school with a migraine and Shannon stated she didn't feel good after dinner. Ryan went upstairs and feel asleep watching TV. Normally they stagger their bouts of sickness. Today I guess was just special, four out of the five kids that live here and aren't living in a dorm are sick and crabby. Oh how I miss the days they were just cuddly when they didn't feel good. Erin did however feel well enough to pull herself together to scrounge four dollars in change off of her father's dresser to get herself to the tanning spa.

They had an open house at school today, I had Dave go since his hours are more flexible. I told him he only needed to go in the primary building since Kelsey was sick and Shannon the big eighth grader would absolutely die if one of her parents actually showed up in her classroom. Dave called when he got to school to find out Ryan and Maggie's teacher's names and where their classrooms were. I thought about giving him a brief description of Ryan and Maggie just to make sure he was watching the right kids.

I gained a pound this week. I guess that little piece of Kelsey's birthday cake that turned into three pieces finally caught up to me. I did Tae Bo again tonight. Sometimes it feels like those DVD's are 4 hours long!!!

This weekend was actually pretty uneventful, not too much dysfunction, just the usual amount. We got to sleep in this morning since we went to mass last night. Our first game wasn't until 1:00 and the house was still clean from yesterday since Sam's friends came over. I could get used to living like this.

Erin had to work this morning. The guy she likes worked with her yesterday and again today. Just long enough for her to get her little hooks in him. I think his name is Zack. Zack if you come across my blog and are reading this, RUN!!!!!! Run for the hills, she's crazy!!! He texted her tonight, that sparked a 20 minute debate on whether or not she should text him back and if so, how long should she wait. She wants to appear calm cool and collected. I can't remember ever having that much confidence when I was her age. Good for her, she normally quits liking a boy once they like her back, that's good for me.

I cut Dave's hair tonight, it was looking pretty shabby. He has the father daughter banquet with Erin on Friday night. Dave's hairline seems to be receding at a pretty fast rate. Erin walked by while I was cutting his hair. She picked up some hair off the floor and sprinkled it on the top of his head. She said "Umm we are going to need this for Friday." We all laughed, poor Dave, we still love you, even if you are starting to look like Bruce Willis!!!!
