Whew, busy week!

What a week it's been. The school from Friday continued to be a night mare for both Monday and Tuesday, but we did get all the testing done there. The rest of the week has been pretty good really, fairly organized, quick, painless and friendly people. Some asked what kind of testing we were doing, we are administering the oral or speaking portion of the NMELPA - which is the New Mexico English Language Proficiency Assessment. Basically it's to determine whether students from backgrounds that have other than English home languages, still require or require English Language Services or whether they have developed fluency. Many of the schools we've been testing at are dual language schools, so most of the kids are pretty fluent. It has been keeping me pretty busy. Add to that two teenagers who I can't convince need to clean up after themselves, a hubby that is out of sorts and requiring some extra TLC, two cats, a dog and partridge and a pear tree... and you have quite a week. Not bad mind you, just ... hectic.

Top that off with it's too warm to sleep comfortably and we haven't had the cooler switched on and you get .. whew.

This weekend is one of the job fairs I'm attending, and I'm hoping that it goes well.

Ducky lost her car keys today, not lost as in "oh no where are my keys" but lost as in "you get to walk for a week". See she's supposed to call if she's not planning on coming straight home. I'm not sure how many times we've gone over this. A dozen perhaps. None the less, I got home at 4:30 today and hmmmm...... where is Ducky? Nowhere to be found. So, she walks or catches rides for a while. Hopefully she'll opt to be a little more responsible in the future. Either that or she should invest in a bus pass.   Muawhahahahahahhahaaaaa........

Not much to say, disappointed in the AI results last night, and week before last too. Although I thought Seyesha did better this week, overall Carly has way out performed her in my opinion. But hey, what do I know? I thought Jason Castro should have been the one going home.

Tonight is Survivor and last week I was bummed to see Ozzie go, but he had an out, he was just too sure he didn't need it. Oh well. The way I see it though, Cerie and Parvati can't win now, because they just alienated all of the jury by backstabbing the alliance. But hey, I though Jason Castro should go home so what do I know right? LOL I know, I know -- reality tv, what can I say? It's my guilty pleasure! Besides crime shows like NCIS, CSI and CSI NY, Criminal Minds -- and lately have been enjoying House. Oh yeah and New Amsterdam. Thank goodness for DVR, otherwise we'd never get to see them all!

Alright, I'm outie --- I'll drop by tonight to visit.


Question of the day:

What's your guilty pleasure??

Hahaha my guilty pleasures are pretty much all broadcast for the world to see!  Harry Potter, Twilight, and Ghost Hunters!!

Another guilty pleasure I have is hard rock music.  Bands like Metallica, Korn, and I absolutely LOVE Tool.  Along with every other kind of music except old country!

"lost as in you get to walk for a week"  I had to laugh  

I lost "as in left laying at customer service" my keys today, a very yucky feeling. Thank God I found them, dh would have killed me.  It's not the kind of key you can just make a copy of.

My guilty pleasue, reality tv

Mine is watching AI!  : D

I was al ittle shocked at the results, too, although it did seem that people just haven't warmed up to her.  And Syesha, either; considering they both gave fabulous performances, it has to be the fan base.  If I was Jason, I think I would feel embarrassed.

I have lots of guilty pleasures.  I do love both AI and Survivor, but don't feel guilty about it.  I guess I'd have to say my guilty pleasures are Rock of Love and Tila Tequila.  LOL! 

Sorry you've had such a busy week.  Better busy than bored though.  I hope your dh is okay.  Is he sick?

I really got into New Amsterdam.  I'm liking Canterbury's Law now too.  I really need a DVR, I ended up missing NCIS this week.  I was very disappointed with Carly going home.  Jason Castro or Brooke White, they have been way out of their league for a while now.  My theory is that it is anti-AI voters.  I can't wait for House to finally come back!  I love that biting humor.  But my very guiltiest pleasure would have to be My Name is Earl.  I swear I laugh out loud at every episode.  It is so trailer park trash, and very funny. 

Good luck at the job fair.  Hope someone sees what a great employee you'd make!

banana splits are my guilty pleasure that shows up in about 2 days after eating one. We still don't know what the next book for book club will be. I will let you know when I find out. Camera club is this next Thursday, interested in meeting me for dinner and attending the lecture? Let me know.
