what title. bah. who needs titles

so last night was open house. always fun. bit surprised they didnt have a faculty social afterwards. they usual do. and they are usually fun. I think that the teachers might be planning a poker night after parent teacher conferences. so. i have that to look forwards to. :)

I keep running into people and finding out they read my blog. and while i know i emailed the link to every one i know, i generaly assume that my life is too uninteresting and poorly described to be of any interest to the general public. apparently im wrong. though ive heard that the photos seem to be a favorite amongst the masses. more photos will be coming. :)

i have a date saturday night. ::cue giggles and a general pink and girly aura::
its been a very long time since ive been on an actual date with dan. hanging out is not the same thing. its one thing when you end up at dinner together because you have to eat before you go somewhere and thats where you ended up. its utilitarian. its a different thing when you plan a nice night out, dinner and a movie and i get to worry about what ill wear and all that stuff. it seems silly, but its important. i think every one needs to feel special like that. in general, not just on dates. for example, i can cook dinner for my friends at any old time, and i often do. but its nice to have something that says you are that extra little bit special. which is why i like doing my holiday meal. its nice. we put out candle sticks. we match the silver wear and use clean wine glasses. sure it takes a day and a half to clean up, but its good people and good times. i look forward to that meal every year. i told peg that next year, she and lonnie will be in their new home, wherever that maybe, and they can do the dinner. ill come over and help. but i think it would be kindof nice to rotate between the two of us. the rest of the group changes a little bit every year, but peg and i are always hostesses.

anywhoo. lunch hour has arrived, and i should eat. so in the spirit of halloween, i leave you with this...
