Michael and the Chocolate Factory Movie...

Got details about what happened on Monday night at Andrea's birthday bash. Yes, I do have a lot of apologies. Although, I seemed to have made lots of new friends and bought them a lot of alcohol. So, sorry and you're welcome to all...

Here's Hillary getting ready to go to the drive-in. "Get in the trunk and shut up!" Haha! Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I don't know. It was alright. It's hard to create a good remake of a classic film. The Planet of the Apes kind of sucked too. It was entertaining though. Maybe if I was 8 years old and didn't know about the original film and grew up watching it over and over; I might like it...

This booth is as yellow as their popcorn butter...

Look at the clouds. I took this right after school and right before I got soaked in the storm. It looks like the clouds from Ghostbusters. Biking in the rain can be fun.

Tonight, I'll be going to a going away party. Hopefully, it will be fun and just slightly sad. We'll see her again. Once a Skee-towner, always a Skee-towner... I don't know what I'll be doing tomorrow other than work. Being a school teacher is tough work. Not necessarily physically, but mentally...

Do I Owe You An Apology For Having Fun?

Good night last night. At least the part I can remember. It was Andrea's 21st b-day. So, we had a night out on the town. First, we went to Pints and Quarts to warm up. We had to get to Captain Jack's at 11 so we could get the limo, which was a surprise gift and I might still owe money on.

Sweet ride. We went to Mike's Inn for Monday Night Club, then to Rossi's in GH, and I don't know what after that. Oh yeah, on the way to GH we picked up some alcohol at the Sunny Mart. Nothing is more awesome than picking up drinks at Sunny Mart in a limo. All the hobos were jealous.

I'm not sure how much money I spent, but it was way too much. I don't know what I was doing, but I remember some girl yelling at me about something and I think I just laughed at her, which made her yell more. I'm not sure how I got home. I'm not sure why I thought it was a good idea to get that out of control when I had work at 8:45 the next morning. I'll have to talk to someone and make sure I don't have to make any apologies...

If I do, I am sorry... Otherwise, what a great time!!!

So, How Did We Get To This Point Again?

Seems like your average run of the mill day. I was tired as shit and still am. I'm on about 7 hours of sleep over three days. My friends and kids at school are going to kill me this month.

The picture above is what I did instead of taking a nap. It was Friday and that means Party In the Park. I only knew a couple of people and that isn't too unusual. Lots of people. Lots of brews. No sleep.

So, last night we were throwing a surprise b-day party for Andrea and needed supplies. Meijer was full of wackos last night since it was the first day of sales of Harry Potter starting at midnight. Check out these people. The sad, but puts a smile on my face, thing is this is a normal Friday night in Skee-town...

Can I talk about the party? I can't post any of the pictures. I don't even know where to begin or explain how only six people can be so out-of-control. Did I fall asleep and dream I was at Muskegon's version of the Playboy Mansion or what? I think I will have to write about this at another time once I have had my sleep and have processed what had happened at this party...

Anyway, you people out there bitching that there is nothing to do in Muskegon are lame asses. There are tons of things to do in this town and most of them are cheap as shit. The drive-in, beach, baseball, festivals, bowling, bars galore, on, and on, and on... I lived in Chicago and had fun. But, it was costly and I sometimes had to save up to go on a night on the town. I'm not even going to explain GR. Just overpriced and full of jerks. Muskegon is cheap, hilarious, and laidback. And if there is nothing to do you have to make your own fun. Ok? OKAY! That's my lesson of the day.

"AHH! YOU'RE GOING TO BURN YOUR MOOMOO!"

Started off the evening over at Amanda's. I helped her family install this new patio. All I really did was do a little digging. They did the rest. There's new concrete, landscaping, a pond, and soon to be lighting. It looks really nice...

Here is a decorative frog for the pond. He's so high...

Went to Mike's, but no one was there. So, we thought we should go to Lakeshore instead. Well, the Mike's posse moved the festivities and then there was everyone else I knew there as well. Good times and I don't know when I will learn that I should not stay out until 3am when I have to be at work at 8:45 am. When will I learn!!!

Never... It's too much fun...

We went on a field trip at school today. We spent the day at Hoffmaster State Park. I missed the nature walk because a kid had an accident. It was hilarious and I'm not going into detail. If you want to know, ask me sometime...

Two more of my 20 children. They were really good today.

This is lunch. It looks intimidating. But, if you divide and conquer you will succeed...

My job on the playground is to sit and watch kids. When someone smacks their face on something, fight, throw something, or whatever I will get my "big mean daddy" voice and set them straight. The rest of the time I smile and hang out with kids. The boys ask me to play football with them and the girls want to know if I have a girlfriend or try to set me up with a girl. Ahhh, recess...

This is my new god. He should be worshipped appropriately...

That's about it for now. It's shaping up to be an exciting weekend. I can't wait for all of the festivities to begin. There are b-day parties, drinking, and all kinds of stuff. So, call me and we shall rock out. Also, I am warning all of you that I have my agents out there and they WILL take prisoners...

Check Out What My Dentist Gave Me

I just had to show this to the world ASAP. I just got back from the dentist and look at what they gave me. It's my teeth. The blue comes off and is only there for the mold they made for my free bleaching kit. Apparently, I am a C-1 and have the chance to reach a B-1. I don't know what that means, but I assume it means whiter teeth in two weeks...

I'm Thinking Sheet Over

Kids were a bit rough yesterday. They are testing me whether or not I am serious with my punishments. Well, I am. I want to have fun with them, but they have to "cool it." I sent a couple to the office after doing "thinking sheet," which is a way of thinking about what they did wrong. They tested me again today and it ended up with me having to expell a kid from the program. Rough day. Tomorrow is our field trip and I hope they can relax a bit so we can have fun. The last thing I want to do is be a hard ass. That's being a teacher I guess...

Went to the drive-in with a few people to see Fantastic Four. My review, not fantastic. In fact, really boring. I fell asleep in a folding chair. Maybe the kids are wearing me out.

I have to go to the dentist in a few minutes to pick up my free bleaching kit. Yeah!. I will soon have those really scary white teeth that those old ladies with bleach blonde hair and super tan skin have. Maybe I'll look like Barbara Streisand's (sp?) husband. I don't know what I'm doing tonight yet. So, if you want to hang out give me a call, yo.

Corrupting the Bible Girls

Run of the mill day. Actually, I had to be that jerk teacher today. I discovered that a couple of my kids are illiterate. I don't know what to do about that. I guess I will have to talk to other teachers about it and try to get them into a special program. If that doesn't work, then I guess I will just have to teach them myself. I also had to do some punishments today because they were testing me. I'll let them get away with things, but not too much. I had to write up a kid for causing all kinds of disturbances and another for throwing rocks and slapping a kid. This is the worst part about being a father to 28 kids...

Like any good father, I went to the bar after work with Mr. Malmquist. Met up with a Mr. Walters and a Miss Talmadge. Played some pool and drank some liquor. Good times...

I think I looked like that Leprauchan (sp?) when I left tonight.

Check out the assessories to this vehicle. This explains why I had some of the weirdest art at art school. That squirrel was actually in my final show.

Nothing too special tomorrow. Just go to work in the morning, come home in the afternoon, maybe a nap, and then hopefully something good. If you want to do something good then you should contact me.
