We had to cancel our elementary school Talent Show this year, because not enough parents volunteered, and this just made me miss it that much more.landismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328094347362872558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-49936259106368747442009-04-07T13:47:00.000-04:002009-04-07T13:47:00.000-04:00Once again, despite the unbearable weather,I find ...Once again, despite the unbearable weather,I find myself wanting to move close to you. In this case, I want my kids to have the community that your kids have in the school they attend; that sense of tradition that you experienced and they do to. I don't have that, being far from where I was raised, and not having the option to raise my kids there.<BR/>So, if you ever open your door to find a lomagirl and family on the doorstep, you'll know why. Otherwise, I'll just have to try and create that wherever I am.Lomagirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09273397354830985024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-91935346512463116422009-04-07T11:31:00.000-04:002009-04-07T11:31:00.000-04:00sounds like a good evening.

I put a towel around the history teacher's shoulders and mushed sugary whipped topping all over his face. We sang "Wait 'Till the Sun Shines, Nellie," and at the end of the song, when the teacher tried to stand up and take the applause, I slapped him in the face with a big gob of cream. At the class reunion 30 years later, people still were talking about that.<BR/><BR/>Word verification: splatici--not kidding!Artist Friendnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-4741555068889900562009-04-06T19:18:00.000-04:002009-04-06T19:18:00.000-04:00What's funny is that we have been having dinner ta...What's funny is that we have been having dinner talking about the annual Gong Show—same thing, really. The schoolkids sign up to do acts—acting, singing, dancing, skits. And the winners get prizes.<BR/><BR/>Serena was in KIDS (a KISS lip-synch band) her first time out, and they took top honors. Next she and four other girls sang "Wade in the Water" and won again. This year, she is doing a band performance of "Surrender" with some other kids. They'll be the only ones playing their own instruments.<BR/><BR/>I love variety shows.fuquinayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996168855030440765noreply@blogger.com
