The Rumors are True
Hawaii is beautiful. Sitting on a military beach isn't bad either. Definitely plenty of things to look at. I have to admit, I didn't do much but travel today but tomorrow we'll get into the swing of things.
I went to the boy's Open House tonight. It was too cute. All kinds of kids running in a million directions. Through in millions of parents all at dinner time. Craziness.
I got to Greggory's desk where he had written me a note.
"Mom,
Thanks for coming to my open house. Enjoy looking at my portfolio. Don't worry about going on dates. Let me know how date # 7 goes."
Just then a little girl comes up to me and whispers, "Greggory says you're on date 6."
"He told you?"
"Well, he just told the kids at our table, but he said it really loud. So the whole class heard it. Then the teacher took us out of the classroom and told Greggory he needed to talk quieter when he was going to talk about that stuff."
Good lord!
So the entire fourth grade class knows I'm on date 6. Or, at least I was:)

I was recently asked to write a self-evaluation for work. When I came to the question, "What do you get paid to do?", I was stumped. I've been in a holding period for about 3 months and have become the department help desk/AA. I did not go to school to be an AA. However, I knew this was going to change and did not feel the need to complain. And yet - I was stumped. I typed three words.
"I fix things"
The boss responded with, "My doorknob isn't working right."
