Christmas Flashmob – Ding Dong Merrily On High

Handbells! Irish dancing! Waving arms! Incognito directors in USU sweatshirts! People who love to sing and dance and perform as much as I do!

The American Festival Chorus pulled off this awesome Christmas flashmob on Black Friday. One of my blogging idols, Loralee Choate, is a part of the AFC. She came up with the idea to put together this fantastic Black Friday flashmob in a matter of days. And they totally pulled it off! Loralee told me about her flashmob plans a few weeks ago when we saw each other at a bloggers event at Hale Center Theater. I was so excited for her and couldn’t wait until the video was posted online. I had NO IDEA it would end up being such a fabulous production! I wish I’d driven up to Cache Valley to experience it live.

Can I just say….I really miss singing in a really great choir? I’m not a soloist by any means. I have that “musical glue” type of blending voice that makes everyone else in the choir sound amazing. If Logan wasn’t so dang far away for weeknight practices, I’d totally join up and quit hiding my musical talents under a bushel. Until then, I’ll just enjoy everyone else’s holiday singing. Until then, I’ll just be friends with @AmFestChorus on Twitter and pretend I’m in that crowd at the mall.

Some call ‘em “bangs,” some call ‘em “fringe.” But Rosie and I both have them now.

TMI Friday: Potty Humor

seo.com toilet explosionIf you’ ve been reading my blog or Twitter stream for any amount of time, you’ve probably realized that I have an insatiable draw toward “potty humor.” I’ve worked in healthcare for many years, and I know quite a bit about how the human body works.

But yesterday at work, something really funny happened with the potty.

The toilet exploded.

I don’t think it’s been confirmed whether it is a result of a bad prank, or bad plumbing, but I’m betting on the latter. Can you imagine the Workers Comp claim had someone been on the pot at the time?

This incident has made me come up with so many funny jokes, I can hardly contain myself. But today, why don’t you, lovely readers, come up with a witty comment for this picture?

Best comment…just maybe…will get a prize…

Wordless Wednesday: Just Beachy

Wordless Wednesday: Protected

respiratory mask protection

What do you do when your immune system is compromised, your husband is out of town, your daughter comes down with strep throat, and your doctor has told you to avoid being around sick people?

You put on your respiratory mask, get in the car, and drive your kid to your parents house.

Wordless Wednesday: Tortilla Face

Rosie has a tortilla face!

Rosie has a tortilla face! With funny random things like this, there’s no doubt why I keep her around (other than the fact that she’s my daughter)
