My popcorn is savory!

My Eldest loves words. She was excited to learn a new word, savory. She also writes a lot. Here are some of her compositions. I have corrected her spellings and punctuation. If you could read them in their original format, you would find it too precious.

I do not have a favorite color, but I don't know why?

Once upon a time, there lived a girl. Sometimes she likes to play dress up. It's fun. Sometimes she caught butterflies. Sometimes she would play tennis. One day she went to pick strawberries. The End.

I like you buddy. Thank you for being my buddy.

Name. I like mom. I like my dad. I like by brother. Write a sentence. (She has no brother!)

My favorite part was when we raised our hands and told what we would do with the piggys.

Friday. Dear first grade journal, Two bee, Room one is going to have a speaker. Mr Skerie says we have to write in a journal until. The speaker will teach us by recycling. Recycling is where you clean your trash. I believe. From, one bee.

I like my cats because the are friends. June Jones, first grader, room one, is going to have a speaker today. It's all about recycling. Recycling means cleaning trash I think. Mr. Skerie says we have to write in journals until the speaker comes. From June, the first grader.

Chef Me

How about a Pita from the Arabic market. Take it and rip it in two. Put some Queso Fresco in both pockets. Put both halves in the toaster. Crispy bread and melted cheese. Yum. You're welcome.

Weekend Sports

My MSU Spartans crapped the bed at home against Ohio State. Predictable. My Tampa Rays got to the World Series. Hooray! Not my Lions crapped the bed. Didn't watch a play.

There will be a big rivarly week this week with MSU @ UM on Saturday. I'm going tailgating. Swag should be good.

Computer issues

Sorry for no new posts in a while. My home computer blew a power supply and a hard drive. It's still in the shop.

Thank goodness for insurance

My estimate to get my rear driver side door fixed was $3,600. Yikes.

Car accident

Some guy blew through a red light last night and hit me in the driver side rear door. He was even turning down the wrong way to get me. Luckily I have $20 a day for rental insurance. No injuries all around.

radio habits

My listening habits have changed dramatically. I have basically listened to sports radio from the time I got in the car until bed. This has been my pattern for years. During the Kwame mess and through the election and financial meltdown, I have listened to WJR instead. I've got to have my Rush fix in the afternoon. And Frank Beckman is right on. Mitch is a joke of course. I can't listen to that hack. Sorry WDFN. You shouldn't have run that ad mocking Sarah Palin. Remember my rule. You mock Palin, you are DED to me. I know it was the Deisel. I didn't stop listening to WDFN because of the ad, but it didn't help. And WJR has the Michigan State games on the radio. Another blunder by the UM AD Bill Martin.
