Saturday and the feeling is fine
*giggles* If these Bingo writing assignments keep coming, I'm going to have a group of Torren stories. This idea that I'm currently working on is making me giggle. Mostly because Torren, in my head, likes to pit Zalenka and McKay against each other. I think Teyla has had to come get her son from the science lab more than once because he's instigated a huge argument between the two men. Not like they need any excuse but...
In other news, we have snow on the ground again. Not a lot but it got cold enough yesterday that the ground allowed the solid moisture to stick around. It should be gone by this afternoon if we get sun. Don't know if we will or not. It's kind of overcast right now. I'm actually enjoying this kind of back and forth weather. It gets old after a time but I like snow ever so much better now when it's not going to get old and crusty and gray and there's NO ICE. Big plus. I don't mind snow. I HATE ICE.
Okay, so this afternoon, we're going to have visitors at Mom and Dad's house. My sister was the camp nurse last summer at a camp down in Nevada and she got to be good friends with the drummer for the camp band. He's much too young for her but I suppose a boy and a girl can just be friends. It could happen. Anyway, I finally saw her saying something to him on Facebook so I have his full name. His last name is Carrion. Okay, not a typical last name but not horrible either. But get this... if my sister were to marry him, her full name would be Amanda Carrion. Say that out loud. *falls over with spasms of glee* I do love to group her with people with odd last names that go so well with her full first name.
My dad is testing smoke detectors. You'd think that after the third beep I wouldn't jump quite so high. Guess I'm just twitchy today.
Now that my dad is Fire Chief of our little community, I hate answering the phone here. They get the oddest phone calls! I feel like I have to be just the tiniest bit professional about them, too. Like it's going to matter that there's someone on the other end of the line who isn't just laughing at the request to borrow a fire hose. Who else could say they get asked that?
