"Friendship is like peeing on yourself. Everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings."

I love Subway and their $5 footlongs. Dinner for $2.50 (half a sub) and then lunch the next day for another $2.50 (the other half). How much better does it get?!

On my way home from the gym I decided I was not cooking dinner, Subway is healthy, on the way home, and I had $10 for husband and I to eat...so WINNER! I pulled my sweaty self into Subway to grab din-din. Yep. That's how I roll.

It's still cold. Winter needs to be over. I think the coldness is what is currently contributing to my grumpiness. Ick. I would love for the sun to just shine and shine and warm the ground (and me!). I think that would make me feel better.

The other thing to make me happy...I need to quit watching the news. I know, I know, be informed. I think that right now if I heard less of the news, I might be happier. Wow, talk about Debbie Downers. I should stick with my world of reality TV....for some reason they aren't dealing with the recession, therefore I don't have to be reminded of it during The Bachelor, The Real World (shouldn't I hear about it on a show called Real World? Hmmm....), The Biggest Loser, etc. The news, however, can't quit talking about it. Therefore, I should stop watching the news.

My stomach is growling. I need to get ready for work so that I can eat some breakfast this morning. Instead I am on here catching up...eh, it could be worse. Welp, good day!

Holy Cow...what a long couple of days

**Edit**
I want to add in that I know that the auto industry needs money. I promise I do. I just got frustrated. I know people that work there. I just want to say that they need to balance some things out in the world. I am so sorry if I offended anyone. I was highly upset at the time.

Let me get my irritation out of the way first...Do you know what bothers me? Teachers being cut from schools and hearing that schools are cutting millions of dollars from their budgets. Then hearing that auto companies are getting billions to bailout. Now, would those people have a job if they didn't have a teacher? What about all the shit you give teachers for not reaching the unreachable No Child Left Behind Act? How can we do that when you make it to where there are teacher cuts putting over 25 students in some classrooms? I can't give enough attention to all those students. I'm just sayin'. I am sure there will be more, but I had to get that out today.

Thanks for all the lovely comments over the past couple days...that felt awesome to see 7! Wee! I needed that this week, that's for sure.

I took the dog to obedience class by myself last night. If you need a laugh, you should probably go on the nights I am there without the husband. That might be the best time to see some funny stuff. For example, we started out with the helpful Halti (which the instructor hates, but it is the only thing I can control him with) and Truman decided he was done working 5 minutes in because he hates the thing. I took it off and he about ripped my arm off and he would do NOTHING. I was exhausted when I got home. After he jerked me around the room, wouldn't sit, tried to make friends with everyone and everydog....it was just...the longest night ever.

Bombshell at work yesterday: One we knew about, our Superintendent is retiring. The one we didn't know, our principal is leaving after this year to stay at home with her baby. She just isn't happy being without her little one. Sad days for us, but yay for her!
