-someone got rash burn from boogie boarding
-someone had to visit the ER
-someone got a sunburn on day 3

Quick Hawaiian Post

So just a quick post from Hawaii, as we get ready to leave for our massage.

Things have been great so far, other than a small mishap with our flight here, but we'll get into that later.

Here is just a quick taste of what we've seen so far.







Shawnna was just a little surprised by this "rogue" wave as she dipped her toes in the surf.

Well more to come later. Alaho.

STILL annoyed at the lady at Kohls.....

On Sunday we went to Kohls to shop for a couple shirts for House. After we shopped for him, we perused the womens department. I found a dress I wanted to try on. There wasn't a zipper, only a billion buttons, ok, like 10, on the back...which I could not reach on my own, so I stepped out to main the door of the fitting room to have him help me. At which point, a older-ish woman approached us and we had an encounter that went like this:

Lady: "You can't go in there" to my husband.

GirlHouse: Turned, looked her in the eye and said with a smile "He's not going in"
House: "I'm just helping her with the buttons"

Lady: "Well he can't be that close to the dressing room"

GirlHouse: Jokingly, but annoyed "Then let me walk out half naked"

Lady: It's a cute dress, would you like me to help you with it?

GirlHouse: (By this point he had finished buttoning it up....and I was thinking WTF lady??? Yeah, I really want you to freaking touch me!!!!) Still smiling "No, I'm fine, thanks"

OK, I totally understand where this lady was coming from, really I do!! BUT, my husband isn't some weird-o to likes to watch women's ankles while they try on clothes. He was not IN the room. There was only one other women trying things on (and was not coming in and out). There there is not a sign that designates it as "Women's"

I understand she was just doing her job, but Come On!!

Well the dress didn't fit quite right, and even if it did, I was so annoyed that I wouldn't have bought it anyway.

Whew, I feel better now! Thank you Internet, for being a good listener.

March Madness!!!!

CBS made the best decision ever when they decided to stream every game on-line. I have been able to watch all of both Wisconsin games instead of 15 minutes of each game if I had to rely on TV only.

It is a good thing that Wisconsin (and so far Marquette also) is doing well, because Duke screwed up my bracket. That was one of those picks that after the first round game you wish you could change after watching the first round game.

So this post doesn't have a real purpose other than I haven't posted in a while, I'll throw in one more cool thing that I found online a couple of weeks ago.

For any of you who wish you could play your old Nintendo games (without a Wii) this site has a ton of old Nintendo games that you can play on your computer. I have found it a little difficult to use the keyboard instead of simple controller (mostly because the right and left hand are backwards).

Thats about all I have. Hopefully the weather will straighten up here soon so we can finish working in our yard after starting last week.

Everybody has my computer!!

So my schedule this week a bit jacked--- teach 2 periods--off for 4 hours (hours not periods)--teach 3 periods at a completely different school. Well, today instead of going home after I worked out or handing more of our money to the devil a.k.a Walmart (although I did find a case of water for $3.00..should've bought two)....anyway...so I remembered that Panera Bread has free WiFi. Girly Coffee and the Net--I'm There!!
So here I am...being a yuppy with my Carmel Latte, my Dell, and cute toe nails ...and I look around..... 5 other people have my computer!! I kid you not! Five! One lady's screen is twice the size of mine, and it must weigh 20 lbs, but other wise, they all look the same........Insert Twilight Zone music here........." Some where in middle America sits a young woman....................
