The Husband was quite displeased when he saw my latest post.

"Aren't you going to tell the whole story?" he said.
"I was trying to fall asleep. What was the whole story?"
"I said 'Do you ever sometimes wish you could just take off your head to go to sleep?' and then you asked why."
"I guess I kind of remember. What did you say then?"
"I said, If I could take my head off I could sleep any way I want, even on my stomach and my head could just be sitting on my dresser."
"Oh yes, you're right. That makes you sound so much less crazy."

Where does he come up with this?

"Do you ever sometimes wish you could just take off your head to go to sleep?"

Do you ever have those moments where you think; When did I grow up? I'm 26, I'm married, I'm a teacher, I own a house, I'm an adult, I know. But sometimes I just forget and then it hits me-oh yeah, I'm a grown up.
My good friend Kate just left my house. She's a friend from AK-we go back about 14 years- and she's deploying to Iraq this month. Sad isn't quite what I'm feeling but more worried. She says not to be, but she's supposed to say that.

Fun in the Sun

We're arrived in Sacramento today. We're here to visit my parents in their new home. It's so weird, it hasn't sunk in yet that they no longer live in Alaska, where I grew up. I'm not sure when it will hit me, maybe one day when I go to visit friends in AK and we don't stay where my parents used to live. Anywho, it's super duper crazy insane hot here. It reached 96 degrees, which to those of us from Washington, is warm. One might even say hot. Like me. So we jumped in the pool and ate dinner and laughed with my parents. It's only day 1 but I am having a great time!
