You're gonna like this one because it means you can go back and forth to Hawaii....<br /><br />My trick....I only stay in each ward for two months at a time! When I show up and I start to see the drool that means you are about to be devoured by an auxillary leader, I just innocently and cleverly mention how my talent is traveling and I work/live on the other side of the planet....... but I am so there for you when you need a pinch hit teacher. I do bang up last minute RS lessons. I've got your back when I am in the country! (Except for that time when I was in the middle of my nervous breakdown and I came to your house and gave you the sub teaching job back because my mind was jelly.) But I recovered and I made up for it, remember! <br /><br />Speaking of making up for things, I notice you getting a lot of mileage out of that super cute picture that I took of you and Jack Johnson and the one you took of me with him was not even salvageable. Now you can send me that super model one you took of me on your last day in Hawaii. That totally makes up for it. <br /><br />Air hugs and kisses! I'm gonna go write on Tatum's wall now!Dollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17960399302840828379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-71906388176281867632009-09-13T11:40:32.695-06:002009-09-13T11:40:32.695-06:00This reminds me of my induction into your blog.

I laughed and laughed and awed at how you write humor so well and disguise the serious topics underneath so we know your soul and heart and can sooooo relate. <br /><br />I also realized then, that I could justify procrastination of my "to do" lists by reading your clever and witty writing as much to my heart's content because it was a gift from the Universe. The Universe is wired to give me the polarity balance of what is going on in my life. <br /><br />When the heaviness of my work load is getting heavy, the crashtestdummydiaries have seriously been the counterbalance. <br /><br />Shokran (means Mahalo)! I'm reviving my arabic words getting ready for my big cultural this week. Btw, how do they say mahalo in Utah culture? They have their own language there don't they?Dollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17960399302840828379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-3087349651879952762009-09-09T13:50:30.157-06:002009-09-09T13:50:30.157-06:00Ew, sweaty brains are GROSS!Ew, sweaty brains are GROSS!I am LoWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01143055801646733494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-85505923788606581422009-09-09T09:20:00.808-06:002009-09-09T09:20:00.808-06:00Hey Martha, guess who Alan and I ran into yesterda...Hey Martha, guess who Alan and I ran into yesterday on BYU campus?

Let's get those t-shirts up for sale.<br /><br />Jillybean, I might wear spandex shorts if you bedazzle Crash Test Dummy on them. I was in a coma during the church hymns. Well, almost in a coma. <br /><br />ha ha Chief. Are you serious? And ha ha Stephen. I would prolly wear spandex if I was called of Gad to do so. <br /><br />Ha ha Amanda. resident with a "p" LOLOL. That's a good one. hee hee<br /><br />Nutty, are you serious? First of all, I like Smarthelm. Second of all, NO WAY, her bishop reads her blog? That's WEIRD. I made my sister swear that she wouldn't tell anyone in the ward about my secret identity. I'm afraid someone might google me sooner or later so I better get all my teasing in quick. <br /><br />Ha ha funny farmer. For some reason the thought of playing the slots with mesquito repellent is cracking me up. <br /><br />And Lori's too. Just the wayis in Utah. LOLOLOL. My verifier is hot today. Or maybe I just need to get to bed. <br /><br />Martha, oh no, I hope I don't get uber happy and crazy busy as my attitude adjustment. I know I need one. SIGH! Did you guys have a Labor Day party? I thought of you guys all day. I felt like I should be planning and eating hot dogs without buns or ketchup. <br /><br />Flea, I think fleas should be against my religion too. Nothing personal. I have PTSS when I think about fleas. <br /><br />He Megan, MAHALO! I'll drop by your blog. <br /><br />Melanie, HOW RUDE! You're s'pose to laugh WITH me. <br /><br />Randi, ah shucks. For some reason when I see you here I start thinking about my students. One in particular.

(who is our new RS pres, by the way) was teaching a lesson and saying that she is so grateful for her new calling because they were in your ward for 15 years, and then they were forced out into our dumb ward (ok she didn't say our ward is dumb, I added that) and she was stuck in the nursery since then. She was spiritually going downhill and murmuring. Then she started praying to change her attitude and waa laa, she's the new RS pres. Her attitude has now been adjusted and she is uber happy and crazy busy. <br /><br />Don't tell anyone, but right, now I don't have a calling either. I'm hiding out. <br /><br />Have fun on the bike ride.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09204531744552663314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-68762971300777439002009-09-08T15:36:05.600-06:002009-09-08T15:36:05.600-06:00Oh you make me laugh.
