Huge News!!!!

I'm so excited! Today I got the news that the author I asked to come to my work's book sale in November is coming! Lesley Kagen, author of "Whistling in the Dark" will be doing a reading and book signing in November. I'm quite proud of myself :)

What's the deal with McDonald's soda prices? You can get a 42oz soda for 89 cents but you still pay regular price for the smaller sizes which are over $1. Ridiculous....

Mind if I smell that?

I love Summerfest. It's a great place to go and socialize with friends while eating some great food and having a beer or two. I was enjoying a tasty Major Goolsby's cheeseburger and an Leinie's Red while hovering with my husband and a friend under a canopy to save our cheeseburgers from the rain. I noticed two boys, around 12 yrs old, doing the same thing. I mean it, the exact same thing. Standing under the canopy out of the rain while enjoying cheeseburgers and beer. Wait a minute!!!! What? I am extremely opposed to underage drinking especially pre-puberty. So I called my group's attention to the boys and noticed that a few people were walking up to them and saying something but I couldn't hear what was being said. Finally, I couldn't help myself and went over and asked them what they were drinking. They said Red Bull and not being convinced since I don't like Red Bull and don't know what it looks like (without Jager) I asked them if I could smell it. It was indeed Red Bull. They didn't think I was weird but my group did. Oh well, I was satisfied :)
