I just locked my keys in my car. In the ignition. With the car running. Something must be on my mind.
Luckily my parents were less than 1/2 a mile away with a copy of the key. The easy fix makes it funny.

CPR how-to
It’s been a while since I took a CPR certification class, and I came across this awesome website while looking for classes. It has both videos and diagrams for babies, kids, adults and pets.

the final countdown
2 tokens
Saturday night at the brewers festival, Chris and John thought it would be funny to throw 2 beer tokens onto the ground and see how long it took for someone to pick them up. It took much longer than expected and I quit taking pictures because it got kind of boring. Someone eventually did pick the two tokens up, and the look of glee on his face was only 10% alcohol related.

Bees?
Ants!
This month’s National Geographic story on Ants served as a bit of an omen as just a few days after its arrival, we had two waves of ant invasions.
The first was the biggest shock – it had been weeks with the population under control then suddenly there was a blossoming. Ants crawling up the side of our house, in through the kitchen window, then spreading out into the sink, the dishwasher, the cutting board, and even into the cabinets. Worst of all, they were covering the garlic bread I had been dreaming about all day!
I sprayed the trails and seams and we went to class and came back a few hours later and things seemed to be back to normal. Today however, they were back and in new places. Michelle took several deep breaths before going in on Raid raids then e-mailed me from work asking that I clean up the carnage. We’ll see what tomorrow brings, but these flourishes seem to be fairly short lived. At least they aren’t the giant mandibled army ants from the geographic story. Now I’m itching again.
Childbirthing class
Michelle and I finished our last childbirthing class last night so we’re officially ready to do this. It was a six week long course at the Sunnyside facilty about a 25 minute drive from here instead of the North Interstate facility which is 2 miles from here. But aside from the distance and duration, it was incredibly helpful and enlightening and we are now prepared and certified to have our baby.
What? You don’t have to take the class to have a baby?!? I suppose the joke is on you. If you’d seen the pictures of meconium you might have reconsidered.
