Let the Children Come to Me
Today was a big day in my classroom. We had the opportunity to make gingerbread houses. I have waiting three patient years to get the courage up to make these gingerbread houses. I was anxious and nervous out of my mind and got tired just thinking about this project. I was pleasantly surprised that the kids did a great job handling the responsibility and did not even make a HUGE mess. Of course, it was messy, but that's part of the fun. The kids had to earn the activity with appropriate behavior Mon-Thurs. and even Friday morning, so they took the house decorating very, very seriously. I was so impressed!
Why does it always happen that the week before break goes so slow, until the last couple of days of the week? Monday and Tuesday dragged on. Every morning, I would wake up thinking, okay, 4 more days, 3 more days, etc. Then, after Wednesday the week flew! I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I can't believe how fast today went. It was like I looked at the clock and 'blink' it was the end of the day. I have no idea how that happens.
I'm so anxious to get home tomorrow, but I still have plenty to do tomorrow morning and afternoon. Tomorrow is the big day for the flash mob. I'm real excited. Mostly, it's just really fun that all of my friends here are doing it. We are having a ton of laughs. Laughing is good.
After work today, I could think of only one thing. Nap. So, I headed straight home. Well, I took a slight detour by the duck shop to look for a couple last minute gifts but when I couldn't find a parking spot I decided it was a sign that I should just head home and hit the couch. Indeed. I flew home and quickly cuddled up in my leopard print snuggie. You heard me. Leopard print. And, headed off to the shut-eye theatre. Then, I get a text. I thought, I cannot check that, but I saw that it was from Chrissy who was going to pick me up for the Flash mob dress rehearsal tonight. She informed me that she cannot find her house key and cannot practice in the clothes she is in and has to wait until her boyfriend gets home from work. I said that was totally fine...hey, longer nap for me, and invited her to come hang out here so she wouldn't have to be out in the 35 degree weather. She came by and hung out while I rested on the couch. Suddenly, I hear her laugh, and she says, "Wait, what?!" I wasn't quite sure what/who she was talking to so I said, "What?" She informs me that she just got a text from her boyfriend who said he was home now but had just locked HIS keys in his truck. Unbelievable! He tells her to swing by his parents house to get the spare key. Don't mention that he lives about two minutes walking distance form his parents house but WE have to stop by there. He didn't tell us that he would be busy breaking into his own house, and not tell us that he made it into the house. We got to the house to find him inside, and Chrissy disgruntled because the stop at his parents house cost us some time and now we were going to be really late for rehearsal! She runs into change and we are off to flash mob practice. When we get there we decide we should pick up our shirts for tomorrow's event first. So, we enter the registration room and neglect to see all of the signs that say "Registration is by FIRST NAME" I confidently walk up to the lady and inform her my name is, "Tacchini." She repeats it and then adds, "Oh, that's cuuuuute." In the way that people do, that mean they don't really think it's cute. They think it's weird, and who would name their child, 'Tacchini.'? Well, my parents didn't name me that either! I apparently just don't know how to read all of your massive signs...so, naturally, they could not find my name on the list and we are all thinking this is very odd. Why does it show that I am not registered? Finally, one of my friends points out that registration is by first name, which incidentally didn't help her out any because they never did prove that she was registered. (She got a shirt anyway.) As the light bulb appeared, I had to swallow my pride and inform the man I had made the mistake and that my name actually was Judy and, not, Tacchini. He found it right away and I got my shirt....just in time for rehearsal to be over. Awesome. I'm dressed up like Nanuk of the North for a good solid 10 minutes out in the cold. I am already so over this night, so I ask Chrissy to take me through the McDonald's drive-thru on our way home. McDonald's = default comfort food. Gross, I know. Anyway, we're sitting in the drive thru concocting our plans for tomorrow afternoon, when suddenly everything goes pitch black. Really? A power outage? Right now? Her gas tank is on empty and we were next to order. Moments later the lights flicker back on. The girl comes through the speaker system and is cracking up laughing while simultaneously asking about our order. Then, she says, "Oh, oh wait, our system is down. I can't take any orders." In panic mode, she calls her manager over who confirms, "No, no more orders." Unsure of what to do, Chrissy and I sit there for a few more minutes, thinking, so do we wait until we can order or what do they want us to do? They reiterate, no. more. orders. So, we're thinking do they want us to back out of the drive way because it appeared they really wanted us out of their like 10 minutes ago. Just then, a car pulls in behind us. Well, so much for backing out. Now, we are literally stuck in the drive thru. The entire time I'm thinking. This is a sign. I'm going to eat McDonald's and have a heart attack tonight...because I'm dramatic like that. So, we pull up to the first window, whereupon we are met by a male attendant. He asks about our order and Chrissy tells him we didn't have the chance to order. He basically laughs and tells us okay. So, we're giggling and asking, so can we order now? And, he doesn't respond, so apparently that's not an option. We continue waiting until the people in front of us get their food and are on their merry little way, when it occurs to us, the people that pulled in behind us are in fact ordering! What the hell!? Eventually, we pull up to the second window where the girl attendant is ready to hand us a bag of food. We inform her we did not get to order and she just laughs and apologizes briefly. I'm thinking these people are all acting very strange and they do not seem to care what so ever that I have gotten no eats! Chrissy then poses the question, "Do we drive thru again?" I'm thinking. No way. We would be unreal. But, that's what I want. So, yes. Yes, of course, we drive through again! Here we go. We get to the speaker where the male attendant at the first window can clearly see the car, and asks for our order, and we think it's weird that he's not acknowledging the fact that we already went through the drive through, so we place our order and pull up to his window. We are laughing hysterically, and Chrissy laughs and says "Hello, again!" He basically is unresponsive takes our money and acts as though he has never encountered us before. It was very, very strange. The female at the second window also acted as though we were completely unfamiliar. I was left feeling very, very confused. Finally, Chrissy deposited me at my house and I made it home, never to leave for the rest of the night.
Currently, I am procrastinating packing. I did do laundry though. Yay, me!

The Lord is a Man of War
....the Civil War. I realized that I had this blog caught up to about two weeks ago. I promise to resurrect this thing over the holidays, in between family, friends, and completing coursework for my license. I'm sure I'll have loads of time...
Anyway, Civil War weekend is one that will go down in the history books. Vince, an old flame for those of you keeping up, came up for the weekend. We hadn't seen each other in a long time and had a really great time hanging out for a few days. He got to spend some time with my friends, which was a blast, and we had a non-stop action packed weekend. Vince even got to partake in a pretty intense hot wing challenge. He did actually complete the challenge but there was some stipulation about licking the sauce off of the plate and he refused to do that. He did get all the wings down. Ten wings in ten minutes. He had one bite of that disgusting li'l chicken wing and was pouring sweat. It was real gross. The bar back brought me some napkins to "towel off" his face because sweat was dripping into his eyes. Ew! So gross! But, he clearly couldn't do it for himself or he'd have sauce all over the place and that would really burn. Believe me that stuff was not friendly. Check out the pics below.
The highlight of the weekend of course was the Civil War. I hadn't had a lot of trash talking from my friends affiliated so closely with Beaver nation, so that took a little fun out of it. But, the fun never really ends in beating OSU. Everyone had predicted we would win, but I thought the game was actually going to be a lot more intense. I'd had a substantial amount to drink that day, so maybe it was intense and I just missed it. Nah...it wasn't quite the game I was hoping for, but maybe that'll happen in January.
I love my Ducks. This weekend, I'm taking part in a flash mob at a giant tailgater in Eugene. Yes, we get our party on for any ol' reason. The Ducks going to the natty is just one of these reasons. Basically, all of my friends are doing this flash mob and we are having a great time rehearsing and laughing at how ridiculous we look. Stay tuned for this video...I will post it as soon as it is edited and completed but that probably won't be until January.
To add to this idea of rivalry, everyone should checkout cafepress.com and look at the Alabama shirts they have on the market (obviously not affiliated with the school) but with their fans. Search for 'roll ducks roll.' The shirts should pop right up. They are hilarious. If I were technologically savvy, I would take the time right now to figure out how to post them. But, I actually don't care that much. Go see for yourselves. It's worth it.
This week has been absolutely bananas. I am trying to get everything ready to migrate three hours south and spend the next two weeks virtually in hibernation ;o) Thank you, Klamath. I'm excited to see friends back home, although it recently occurred to me I have no clue when anyone is getting in or how long anyone is staying. I'm looking forward to seeing my cute li'l nephews (though not so little anymore). I'm looking forward to DOWN TIME, especially after this week, with all the dinners with friends, flash mob rehearsal, gingerbread houses, christmas shopping, working out, and book reading. Two nights ago, in fact, I forgot to turn my ringer on on my phone, and didn't wake up until 7:30 the next morning...and this morning I slept right through my alarm! That has maybe happened one other time in my entire life. I'm literally spent. Tomorrow night lends itself to another rehearsal, more christmas shopping and a few things left to do Saturday morning involving snow tires and donuts. Haha. Then, flash mobbin' it, and heading home! I'm looking forward to my cozy house with all of the familiar Christmas decorations I love.
I think my eyelids are actually starting to close.....
Today's list: Things on my brain...
1. I have to get up early 6 am!
2. I have to shower still
3. How am I going to get all of this gingerbread stuff in the car in the morning without breaking it?
4. I have a pain in my neck.
5. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep.
Night, y'all.

Gluttonously Thankful.
Wednesday was a day of rest for me and charter fishing for my sis, brother and nephew, Johnny. They caught their limit, which was great news because we needed it for our fish fry at the end of the week. Last year, we all went on the fishing charter and the majority of the trip was spent throwing up. I was not ready to brave the seas again, but this year, no one got ill and they came back with infectious, renewed confidence. Perhaps next year we'll try a crabbing charter!
Thursday was a day spent together while mom and dad cooked up an enormous feast. I love, love, love Thanksgiving dinner. Andy, my sister's boyfriend, also joined us on this day to celebrate with us. We loved having him there with us, as well.
Friday came and there was only one thing on the agenda. DUCK GAME. I rallied the troops that morning ensuring that everyone had their Duck gear on. Andy's mom came to spend the day with us, and I even brought an extra shirt for her, seeing as how her family has largely been Beaver fans. She was a great sport and rocked the Duck gear like a champ! So proud of her! We had a great day spending time with her and hope that she will be able to join us next year, again. She really kicked it up a notch in the pool. She had my mom doing cannonballs off the side of the pool and everything. I had never seen anything like it...in all my 26 years. There is video archived of this event, however, I have been threatened with my life if anyone ever finds it online. So, I guess that family secret will have to live within the family.
Then it was Saturday and the unsettling thought settles in that Sunday is the last day of vacation. It always goes by too quickly and I dread the day we all separate and go back to our own separate lives. Luckily, Christmas vacation is right around the corner. I think it was this day that I got to catch up with my friend, Marina, from college. She teaches in Newport, and it was great to see her and swap teaching tales and catch her up on the rest of our friends in Eugene. So thankful to get to see her.
It was another successful and fun filled holiday. I'm so thankful to have such a great family. I'm truly blessed.
Today's list: Favorite moments/parts of Thanksgiving break...
1. Seeing my nephews
2. Jacoby trying to talk
3. Feeding the seagulls "illegally" off the balcony
4. Putting a 1,000 piece puzzle together with my mom and sister
5. Good food!
6. Watching the Duck game with my family, and screaming real loud with EVERY touchdown.
7. Nights winding down in the hot tub
8. Sweet treats
9. Telling childhood stories and talking, in general.
10. Staying up late and drinking wine with my mom and sister.
At this end of this week I am always exhausted and I'm always so thankful to be tired because that meant that I had a wonderful busy week with my family. Loves!
The Cup Floweth Over...
It seems that since the weekend before Thanksgiving I have been on the go. Some of you may remember me raving about my invite to the Tosh comedy show. Let's rewind and rehash that night of debauchery. First of all, someone should have told me before I walked into this that he is the most inappropriate man on the planet...thus making him one of the funniest. I had no clue what I was going into, and let me tell you, I'm sure, without a doubt, that I am going to hell in a hand basket after laughing my buns off in that theatre. Surely, if anyone knows anything about me, and by now, everyone should know a substantial amount, they would know that I love inappropriate, uncouth, rude, obnoxious humor with a dry twist of sarcasm preferred. I especially enjoy this style of humor-y if includes mockery of humans for doing stupid and idiotic things, like humans are always doing. It seems that Sir Daniel Tosh has nailed all of these requirements to deliver a raucously, raunchy 90 minute stand-up show. Turns out I was in for a real treat. So, what Tosh does, on his Comedy Central show, is, he essentially finds ridiculous videos on line and makes fun of them. During his stand-up, there are no limits, and he basically rips everything. That said, I am very thankful to my cousins Amy and Jason for thinking of me...and to open me up to this new comedian. Ha, I just thought of a hilarious irony, which is I have tried to open my cousin Jason up to many new and surely fulfilling adventures (seeing The Avett Bros, Zany Zoo, Bingo, etc..) and he ends up confused and hating the situation he has found himself in, with the exception of Zany Zoo perhaps. And, if he's reading right now, he might be interested to know, it has reopened, after burning down several months ago. Remarkably, he continues to go on these adventures I dream up. Below I have tried to embed a video of Daniel Tosh mocking the most hilarious/repulsive old man I have ever seen. I can't censor you people, use your own judgment. Proceed with caution. This is definitely not appropriate for all, dare, I say, not appropriate for most, audiences. A little taste of Tosh...(Be sure to scroll past the video to see pics from the night)
Today's list: The top five most highly offensive topics included, but definitely not limited to, in Daniel Tosh's stand-up...
1. Rape
2. Race
3. Sexual Orientation
4. Politics
5. The Oregon Duck mascot
Pictures from the night...
Amy and Chris - Dinner at Steelhead
Jason - pretty stoked to have his picture taken....obviously

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait...
Dear patient followers,
I. Am. Back. I have literally been wanting to write this blog for two weeks, but there was just never the time for it. I can tell you that this is seriously true, because I was bribed with chocolate to write an updated post and not even that worked! The past few weeks have been filled with blessings, good times, and many lessons learned. Hopefully, I will be able to get everyone all caught up on the haps in this here life in Eugene.
Love,
Me.
