Erin Thoughts- August 5, 2010

-It's Shark Week this week, and I am enjoying every bone crushing minute of it. Tim thinks it's all the testosterone in my house creeping in on me, but I've always liked Shark Week. Summer just wouldn't be complete without it.

-They're raising ticket prices at Disneyland because attendance has been down. Does that line of logic seem confusing to anyone else?

-I still eat peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches almost everyday. I know I really should grow up... but I kinda like keeping that part of my youth.

-Elijah's birthday is in 2 days... I'm throwing him a party. Throwing parties always makes me nervous because I never had or went to birthday parties growing up. So I never know exactly what it is you're supposed to DO at these things?

-I recently got a new webcam. It has a wide angle lens, which I thought would be a cool feature. But it really just means that people can see more of my messy livingroom.

-The show "The Bachelor Pad" sort of looks like Road Rules vs. Real World challenges, with mandatory dating. How unoriginal.

-I really want to learn how to sew, but it's an expensive hobby and there's no telling if I'll even be very good at it.

-Pregnancy always gives me the strangest and most fascinating dreams. I think Tim wants to keep me eternally pregnant so that I can become a screenwriter.

-I secretly want a Dyson vaccuum cleaner so badly. But I'm not sure if it's because it's a wonderful vaccuum cleaner, or if it's just Mr. Dyson's thick british accent that entices me.

Lauren thoughts in response to yours...
I agree. Mr. Dyson makes me want one, too. :-)

I think you would be great at sewing!

You never have to grow out of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches... have you ever tried it grilled?

Dave's thoughts - August 17th

- I don't get "Shark Week". In fact, I'm still not sure I even know what it really is. Erin, someday, enlighten me.

- Agreed. Raising prices amidst declining attendance does sound counter-intuitive. Doesn't make me want to go visit anytime soon, but I know I will if I get the chance.

- Erin, I absolutely *love* PB & J sandwiches. I could eat them everyday, too. Does that mean we're both refusing to grow up, at least to some degree?

- Sorry we missed his birthday, but if your last birthday bash is anything indicator of your ability to throw a party, you have nothing to worry about.

- Webcam, huh? Can't say I'd ever want to use a wide angle lens, either. Someday we should video chat during the day, but preferably only after I've cleaned myself up. I'm pretty ratty looking until after lunch time :-)

- Bachelor pad ... hmm, no idea what this is.

- I've never wanted to sew, personally :-) Debbie's a wonderful seamstress and even has some personalized Debbie tags she used way back when.

- I've had some pretty strange dreams but fortunately I can't blame them on pregnancy.

- I think you like Dyson's accent.
