Near, Far, Wherever You Are

Well, on day one of the bake sale, we made over $550!
On day two, we started acting a little strange, probably from all the sugar. After deciding we needed more advertising, we made a huge sign, and ran it up to the intersection above our school. At first, we wanted to tape it over the "Queen Anne Welcomes You" sign, but figured that might be illegal. We then spotted some bushes, and proceded to tape the sign to them. Somehow, someone said the word "distance," which prompted a top-of-our-lungs singing of "My Heart Will Go On," punctuated by screaming "BAKE SALE!!!!!!!" at passing motorists. Needless to say, none of us could hit the high notes, what with our non-warmed up voices. The high notes became more high-in-volume notes.
Oh, dear. Now I'm thinking about Titanic. Getting teary-eyed. You know, when I watched that, I had it together until the last scene when Rose is young again and she is meeting Jack on the stairway (okay, fine, I cried when Jack died. Please don't tell me you didn't know he died. I did NOT spoil the ending). That is so sad! I was practically bawling. But at least Rose is happy in her heaven, as implyed by that scene. I need to go think about beautiful romances for a while now.

Social Studies teacher again. She sometimes has problems with the VCR. She's learning, though.

  • Yes, of course I think about beautiful romances. Just because YOU'RE not a helpless romantic doesn't mean the rest of us can't be.
    And what do you mean "I didn't think you'd get this far"?
