ah, a pattern

I've noticed a pattern - I tend to update my blog right before a training conference (the second weekend of MAC is this coming weekend). Why? Probably because there is stuff that I'm supposed to be working on, but am actively procrastinating. It's hard to work on a talk when I haven't checked Facebook. I also received the staffing lists for Chapter FOCUS week tonight and I can update my blog.

So the entry that I've been meaning to write is on 'stupid things that I've done'. Most recently it was vacuuming the power cord to my computer. It got sucked up so quickly, and while I was trying to turn off the vacuum there was smoke coming out of the machine (the vacuum). Now there are bare wires on the cord, but I've covered them over with electrical tape - yea to Meijer for a $1 fix. We'll see how long that lasts.....

My other favorite mistakes of the past year include buying airline tickets for the wrong flight (quickly got that reversed, thankfully) and unintentionally giving Derek the wrong phone number. That led to a slightly awkward first phone conversation. There must be others. You guys know me, feel free to share them!!

When I was 12, I vacuumed my friend's curtains while helping her with chores. It's 10+ years later and I still hate vacuuming for that very reason!
