The Bad (weather)

I drafted 'vacation' posts the day after I got home... I have one more left after this... to be honest, they are boring the shit out of me and I want to get back to writing regular posts that offend, I mean entertain, is that presumptuous? However, I refuse to waste posts that have already been drafted! So beware, I might just throw caution to the wind and start posting these ass sucking posts fast- just to get through them... so here's one more...

The weather gods were not 100% with us on our trip. Thursday and Friday were stormy yucky days- I heard they got 2 inches of rain.

On Thursday, my 9 year old (the one that is struggling in school) did waaay more homework than any child should be expected to do on vacation... what can I say, I'm a slave driver! We studied multiplication flash cards, branches of the government in Social Studies, and the Environment in Science- I could have turned on CNN and it wouldn't have been much different!

By Friday, I thought she'd had enough and I feared for my life if I grabbed another book out of her backpack, so we broke down and...

That's right, we caved and, EVEN my husband, saw High School Musical 3- Senior Year. It was 1:00 on a school day. Our party made up 10 of the 11 people in the theater... the woman in the left corner of this picture was the other- um, whatever. Happy Hour Sue has Joe Jonas and this broad, apparently, has Zac Efron- to each their own- you cougar...roooaar! Can I defend that woman for a short fleeting moment and admit I enjoy myself some High School Musical?

I still gotta go take my kids to see it, they both want to go. Your Hubby is a Trooper, I am not sure I could get mine to go!

This not a bad vacation post, but I am looking forward to being offended, I mean entertained! : )

You are brave folks. I don't think I can sit through another HSM. Well, not without a flask anyway.
