Hamilton Homecoming 2009!!!


Sorry this debrief is so late, but little D has been too preoccupied with Halloween to notice much else. However, a pre-Halloween event that should definitely not be overlooked was the Homecoming dance attended by me and my BFFF Serena! All dressed up with somewhere to go, we ruled the school as we danced all night, from 8 to midnight, a display that would have made Di and Do weep with pride. It was all a blast, from the hair-and-makeup prep show to the dance to the post boogie-down In-N-Out run (fun fact: most In-N-Outs are open until midnight or later). Would have having a date made the night more fun? Of course not! It was just a girls night out with great results. So thanks to Serena for coming along! I hope this will not be out last!

Ricahrd Simmons Adventure- Part 2


Ok, so maybe the second installment of what seems to be an ongoing series was not as successful as the first time around. Richard was much more hands-on (which is not something to be appreciated when sweating that much)and about 1/2 the class was taught by the other teachers. It's one thing to be working out with a slightly frail 60-70 something year old man. It's quite another to have his much-fitter-than-thou trainers up there. Still, it was all in good fun and Richard played tons of records while threatening to lock us in and play Anne Frank. Besides, after the painful procedures of sit-ups and choriographed aerobics, there was a delicious Pavillions lunch and a trip to TX in store for Do. So how was the return to Richard Simmonsville? Not bad, although now we have better expectations of what a regular class is like.
