at first we thought it was maybe an april fools joke, but it seems that mitch hedburg, my favorite comedian, died yesterday. he was 37, and was found dead of a heart attack in new jersey.

i listened to one of his two CDs just last weekend. i also saw him at cal poly once...

this is the first death of a celebrity that has struck a chord with me. i don't really know why.

Mitch Hedberg, comedian from Minnesota, dies at 37


we actually had an easter egg hunt. i found an egg with a gap gift certificate! (the gift certificate part was rigged. i really found three eggs, but those extra gift certificates were for other people.) my aunts are silly

this old guy eating a lollipop came up to me at ikea tonight and tapped my shoulder. i thought it was steve or my other friend, but it WASN'T.

the man quietly said, "sugar zero, sugar zero, sugar zero"

at this point i'm kind of freaked out, and start looking around for my compatriots.

as i backed away, he said, "now if anyone asks, you can tell them that a dirty old man whispered sweet nothings in your ear."

ew.

open house was a big success. i made it so that the kids basically did all the work and were in charge of showing their parents everything. i also didn't put work out on their desks, which made it way easier for me. yay for easy.

i am aaaaaall about easy

tommorow is open house. i'll have to find an outfit which is suitably grown up and unrevealing. i also need to figure out what the hell i'm going to do with, potentially, 26 sets of concerned and talkative parents.

i joined a gym last weekend. its actually considered a top of the line, luxury sort of gym, but because of their awesome deal for teachers, it is a better deal than even 24 hour fitness. yay!

i had the first of my two complimentary appointments with a personal trainer tonight. he'll help me design a workout program and whatever.

i found out that even though my BMI says i am underweight, i am perfect in terms of body fat percentage. ideal for women is between 19 and 22 percent. i'm 21. that means that i'm actually on the higher side of where i want to be. :o) yay me! i'm happy with this, cause it means that i'm not unhealthily skinny and therefore going to have problems with that.

i'll go back and try my hand at a workout on wednesday. a week from that and i'll have my second personal trainer workout where he is totally going to kick my butt and yeah. fun.

maybe next year i'm going to teach the little kids.

advantages:
1. bad kids crawl under desks instead of jumping over them
2. smaller children have cuter problems
3. they smell better except for the occasional "accident"
4. can make students believe i am 75 years old

i took my first sick day from work today. i had an awful stomach ache all night long. you know, the kind where you curl up into a ball and whimper. very mature. of course, it stopped hurting at about 7.50 am, right when i would have started work. i already had called for a sub, and i needed more sleep anyways, so....

i can actually lock my car from inside my apartment. wow. if you point my clicker in that direction it beeps the car horn to say, "i'm locked!" the downside to this is that i could accidentally set off my panic alarm or unlock the car accidentally inside. :oP

i have a couple reasons why i'm mad right now, the most important being that the trackpad on my ibook is no longer working. (or at least, it only works every once in a while.)

i thought the guy at the mac store fixed it, but it looks like it will take 200-350 dollars to fix. that is completely unnaceptable because this computer cost me 400 in the first place. with that kind of money to fix it, i would have been better off buying a new one.

the other thing is that i called stupid 24 hour fitness like 1 hour 20 minutes ago, and i still haven't heard back. i called them a second time, and gave my number AGAIN, and was again told they'd call me. i'm about to call again and yeah. that is just uncool.

we ate 11 tacos.

mmmmm, tacos.

was everyone's gramma like the best cook ever? cause mine made the best food, including awesome homemade, fried-in-oil tacos. of course there is my other gramma who makes noxious fumes and gross mystery soup.

last night was my night of people making comments about my height. in a bar, this guy who was in his 40's said loudly, "my god! a girl taller than me!" and then pointed me out to his friend once i was on the opposite side of the room. steve's sister offered to tell him off, but he was gone.

then at the ameteur comedy thing, the MC pointed steve and i out when we came into the room as "these lovely tall people." oh, and some guy told a joke about going on a date with a really tall lady. yeah.

there was something i was about to write, but then i found out that all my IM profile, away messages, etc that i have accumulated over 7 years are gone. i was able to find my profile, but even with steve's valiant efforts, i think my away messages are lost forever.

this makes me sad.
