Tea, Taxes and the News
Two blog posts in one night...I am a)really bored and b)procrastinating and not doing my homework...again. (Actually I am waiting on Bob to give me a homework tutorial and apparently Bob has found better things to do with his time than tutor me. Thanks, Bob, I owe you one.) So I am watching the news...and they are talking about tea and taxes...huh? Since when is it a rule that you have to drink tea to pay taxes? Dang, the IRS police are bound to be knocking at my door any minute. Heck, I'll switch to Coke...no problem... who needs tea?? Our newsguy (poor sap in a suit) is trying desperately to get someone to talk to him at the post office about filing taxes late. Okay, without giving any identifying info out (cause I'm all about being anonymous) I don't live in a city. There are TWO reporters out...one on the south side...and one two minutes away on the north side. Really, do we need to hear them trying to make conversation about late tax filers when there is clearly NO ONE at the post office? Gotta love small town news.
Our news station has reached a new low with their feature...SPIN THE WHEEL and find the local criminal of the week?? Seriously? Why the heck do I watch the news??

About Me
I'm a wife, a mom, an educator and a normal (okay, relative term here) person who makes frequent mistakes. I have a lot to say, hence the blog. My kids were adopted as babies (one through an agency and one through the foster care system). I love to talk about adoption. My daughter has sensory issues as well as ADHD. I like to vent about parenting. I am occasionally rosy, usually blunt and sometimes I am simply downright rude. Don't read if it offends you. I may sometimes write about my school experiences so let me cover my bases. I don't live in your town, I don't work at your school, I am not talking about your child, you don't know me. If you think you've figured out who I am...ask me, I will lie and say you don't know me. email me at chocolatecoffeesleep@hotmail.com

Sorry for leaving you hanging, but we both deserved to procrastinate a bit. It'll get done sooner or later, so keep on blogging!

I remember a time when I didn't live in a city, too, and the news guy had to quickly put his cigarette behind his back because they came back to him too quickly. And as he read the news with his hand behind his back, you could see smoke coming from behind him. Pretty soon it was like rolling up, and he jumps up. His jacket was on fire! and fire spreads quickly on polyester! It was hilarious! True story. seriously. how could I make that crap up?
