Birthdays done, cold is rolling in, Gilbert, & Halloween costumes

It's been busy. Good. Just busy.
I've had some kind of flu, cough thing. It's still lingering but on it's way out.

So the girls of our little clan are a year older.
One lost a tooth and the other has lost some more hair :(
Gail had a cool party at a birthday joint, complete with dancing, crafts, pizza, cake, and pressies.
I got new gadgets (phone & dig. camera) from the other half :)

Still waiting for my night out with the girls. Now where should I make them take me?
I say make them because my tastes are more exotic than my Astoria girlies can handle.
One year I made them take me for sushi..oohh.. they all ordered teriyaki! When I mention indian or thai food I get groans.
Maybe back to Asia De Cuba for the short ribs and pink champagne. Yum.

To tell the truth I am anxiously awaiting my Biology study group to come over and study than I am about going out to celebrate the fact that I am one year older now. Does that sound sad?
We have a huge Lab exam Tuesday in 2 weeks so I invited a bunch of us over to cram on the Sunday before. Did I mention that Gilbert the dissected piggy will be the center of our focus. It should be interesting. Now what to make for appetizers. No pork right?

So Halloween is gonna be here before I know it and Gail does not have an appropriate costume yet. I mean she has 2- pink wonder woman and original wonder woman. One is too small and the other she might as well be wearing a bathing suit! And the good old board of ed has decided to stop fighting Halloween and are now allowing children to go to school in costume. Chris gets to go in his pajamas :) Now the rush is on to get Gail a costume that fits board of ed policy: manageable for the loo, tasteful and none violent. So we are changing tactics and I will now go on the hunt for the greatest witch costume ever? So confused.

Ok on the agenda for today: must clean my house a little, find costume for Gail, study for Bio test, take kids to Halloween party, at some point do Math homework for class tomorrow.
