Three Day Weekend = THE AWESOME
Four Day Work Week = EVEN BETTER
Spending Two Days of a Shortened Week With Unexpected Issues = WAIT, WHAT?
Okay, I should probably explain … nobody’s sick and there’s no serious issue. I’m just being dramatic (shocking, I know). It was dumb, really. I mean, if this problem were a bug, you’d need a microscope to see it.
This week, my phone battery decided to throw an all-out, knock-down, drag-out fit and took my whole smart phone down with it. [By the way, I often wonder if my smart phone is actually smart … personally, I think my phone may be a little remedial … much as I adore it and can’t live without it.] So, rather than having the week I thought I was going to have, I spent several hours on both Wednesday and Thursday mornings in my local cell phone store being repeatedly asked technologically insulting question (“Why, yes, thank you, I do know how to turn the phone off!”). This little flea of an anecdote has a happy ending, in that I now have my phone back in working order and am no longer in smart phone withdrawal … but, in honor of this time-sucking aspect of my week, I give you … Friday Five: the “Unexpected Five” edition detailing our biggest “What?!” of the week. (It’s a slow week, I know … thought you all might like a little lightness after last week)
Bob: had to unexpectedly work two 15 hour days this week. You will find him sleeping at the nearest computer.
Ellie: see the bug story above. Thank you.
Darcy (in her own words … after a detailed parental explanation of the word “unexpected“): “Well, I went to Grammie’s house and rided on a wagon down the whole block and not my bike.” Thank you, Darcy.
Aidan: “IhihTsaseeBur“, an exact translation of which is “I hit Chasey-Bear“. Honesty appreciated, Aidan. Although, I suspect that was slightly more unexpected for Chase than it was for you.
Chase: When asked about his week, Chase simply says “Yeah!”. However, speaking for him, I believe his only unexpected event was finding out that his mother did NOT wanting him standing on the living room table. The end.
So, in short, the week is GOING …
GOING …
GONE!
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
