Pause!





Again, not much going on today. I did bake some amazing pumpkin chocolate chip cookies tonight. I also worked today and had a pretty great time in Health. I wish all days could be stellar, but then, wouldn't stellar be the norm?

I love my DVR. So much in fact, that sometimes I am watching live TV and actually try to fast forward the commercials. The funny thing about that is that my TV pretty much tells me I am an idiot by flashing a sign each time I touch the FF button that says: "Live TV." It should really say: "Hello Stupid, you are watching American Idol...it is better live so why would you even think you could fast forward the commercials?"

Anyway, I told my students about my love of the DVR and that I was going to start bringing my remote in so I could get them to quiet down. The funniest thing about this is that when I do point a remote at them and say "Pause" they actually quit talking. Who knows if this will work forever but I am totally going to milk this for as long as it does work. One of the kids was very funny. I kept pausing and unpausing him and he would stop mid sentence and then start where he left off. My favorite was when I fast forwarded him and he spoke amazingly fast. It was so fun.

Well, that is it for now. Only two more days of school before it is Spring Break, Yipee!

P.S. I did not bring my special DVR remote because I was afraid I would leave it there and that would be a sad day. Why would you actually get up and change the channel...that is just silly!
