Just a girl writing in the blogging ring
I was blowing up balloons to fill my front window. It’s not like the neighbors don’t know we pop balloons. Dale is constantly worried about the pop, especially at night. I try to stick to no popping after 9 PM…pushing it later now and then.
So I start with this video.

Next came this short vid…
I waited for Dale and decided to find balloon clips.
Stay tuned….listen for the pop. 😉

Decided to blow off some steam with Dale. :-)~~
The night ended well…we all popped!

I didn’t see Tesla at school today. I wrote that earlier.
I guess no one read that blog yet.
Called twice to talk to Tesla before soccer. Voicemail.
7:30 Tesla returned my call but I was outside.
I return her call and tried to talk with her. It’s so noisy with Heather and children in the background I could barely make out what she is saying.
She asked if I can get her tomorrow. I told her I would talk to her dad. She said that her dad wasn’t home. He was, because she had his phone.
I’m guessing Heather fetched him because he did eventually answer.
I asked him when his game is tomorrow. He didn’t know.
Can I see Tesla tomorrow? He didn’t know what his schedule is.
I asked him why it mattered what his schedule was when I only want to see Tesla. He responded with, “Didn’t you see her at school today.” I replied, “Wrong” making a buzzer sound and followed it with, “next?”
John thinks he knows everything. Even if I did see Tesla today, volunteering in her class, why stop me from spending individual time her the next day?
His follow-up to the school comment….”well you saw her over the weekend.” He says this in front of Tesla.
How is this not purposely keeping Tesla from spending time with me?
As John and Heather like to tell me, “take it to the courthouse.”
Like I don’t spend enough time in the courthouse with John and Heather. I even have promises from Heather for a future court hearing.
How about just loosening the grip you two have on Tesla?
Your daily drama does affect Tesla….and probably all the other children in the house.
Dr. Phil….help!

Life is no piece of cake. It is not a picnic, nor a party.
Life is gruelling in many ways. You must mix with others as you go about your day. Trying to stick to a schedule. It’s not easy.
Today I rode my motorcycle all the way across the county to volunteer in my daughter’s kindergarten class. I noticed her father’s truck in the parking lot as I walked to the school entrance. The secretary buzzed me in and I went to the office to sign the visitor book. As soon as I walked in Mrs. Shields said, “What can I help you with?” That’s when I knew something was awry.
Apparently there was a memo sent out by Ms. Dettinger that there would be no more volunteering in her classroom and to disregard the volunteer schedule she had previously given to parents. I didn’t get the memo. Either it wasn’t passed on to me or it was mixed in with all the other papers that I missed it. I asked if I could walk over to the class and say hi but I was denied. After telling Tesla I was coming in, I felt like shit that I couldn’t even say hi to the class.
What I was thinking was, why is John here? Yesterday he was working at 7pm and sent Heather to get Tesla. Today he’s at the school?
Ms. Sinclair was outside eating lunch and called my name. She is Ms. Dettinger’s teaching assistant. I walked over to the picnic table and she said, “Didn’t you get the memo? I sent two home with Tesla.” I said I didn’t and nothing had been said to me about it. Next, Ms. Sinclair asked, “What’s her dad doing here?” and I responded, “I have no idea.”
My guess, volunteering in Heather’s kids class……

So cute! Glovey Glove
I’m pretty certain, as Tesla and I watch the NEW SpongeBob Squarepants, that the writers or cartoonist have a balloon fetish. LOL There are so many episodes around inflated gloves, balloons, a squirrel who lives in a bubble, bubble blowing, and more and more. I don’t know if I would have ever thought that without all this balloon research I’ve been doing! ~P.
I get a kick out of Chuck E. Cheese. I like his pizza too.
Tesla and I go to CEC’s maybe twice a month. Usually one time we eat and play games and the second time we just go to play games.
We’re both happy either way. The games, the noise and excitement is fun.
Come here mouse...you need a hug.
The Chuck E. Cheese balloons were $2.00 and I wasn’t spending two bucks on a mylar balloon, mouse or not. Instead we headed to Party City and agreed the assorted package of pearlized balloons! They didn’t have anymore of the tye-dye balloons that were awesome looking.

Their nips are hard
Dale picked out the smaller colored balloons. I haven’t tried blowing them until they pop yet, but I will.

This has been one heck of a week. Even with Monday off and missing Tuesday to be with my mom (who is back in the hospital in Harrisburg) it still felt L-O-N-G. I blame it on the refusal to allow Tesla and I time together through the week.
I heard talk from classmates… my Human Comm professor telling his other classes about my balloon fetish infomative speech. I got a giggle out of that…tickled I made such an impression.
My Spanish composition is complete. I will post it after it is graded so my Spanish is corrected. We had to write about our wedding plans or divorce party plans. I was so motivated I even included little pictures I cut out to go with my Divorce Party announcement. If only it were real. I’d love to have Dora and Diego throw a party for me with balloons, beer, a pink hippo and a drunk monkey named Boots.
So Tesla and I are going to Chuck-E-Cheese! You know…where a kid can be a kid!
I’m bringing home a balloon too!

Just a harmless prop 😉
Today I took two balloons to school with me. One was inflated, the other was not. The inflated balloon had a rubber band attached and a paperclip on the band. The band was around my left wrist. I was curious to how people would react. Some smiled, some stared at the balloon and others just ignored me and my balloon.
Human Communications class was up first and that was my destination with my balloon. Someone asked me if my informative speech was about balloons. I said, “Yes it is.” This cleared up the balloon on my wrist question. I got the feeling my classmates thought my topic was a little silly. They had no idea what they were in for.
In my opening statement I introduced myself and stated “I’m here today to talk to you about balloons and the sexual fetish involving balloons.” I secretly took the paperclip point and popped the balloon causing the entire room to jump and laugh. (It was awesome!) With everyone’s full attention, I continued to give my speech. I shared with the class what a fetish is, and specifically, a “loon or looner.” I also explained that the act of someone inflating a balloon is stimulating to some looners. Then I blew up a balloon with about 3 breaths and let it fly around the room and the class burst out laughing again. (Oh yeah!) As I explained some activities that looners include balloons or inflatables, I acted out a few. The class found this very entertaining and even caused a few guys to hoot and one specific classmate (I won’t name her) started to snort with laughter.
I wrapped up my speech with a quick review, thanked them for listening and ended with, “The next time you’re at a party and see balloons, ask yourself, “Do they look sexy?”
I received a nice round of applause, then I fielded half-a-dozen questions from my classmates and professor until the next speech had to start. After class the professor said I did a really good job and he wished he would have taped it because it would have been a great example of an informative speech to show his classes. (I saw the current example. They had real 80’s hair. Time for an updated version.)
So I’m feeling good about my balloon. It made its way around campus this morning and was a fantastic prop in my speech. My campus balloon.
I wonder if there were any looners in the audience?
Popped,
~P.
These are my two favorite animals. I have a tattoo of a hammerhead on my ankle and an octopus on my chest.
Today’s picture search for balloons all have to do with my favorite animals.
