First Day of School

Today is Happy's official "First Day of School" and I forgot to take pictures! He probably wouldn't have let me anyway, but I wanted to :-) He came out this morning and asked if his shirt went with his pants. Good thing I'm really great at matching (note the sarcasm).... Pray that he adjusts to teaching and learns how to balance getting to know the kids while remaining authoritative.

As for me, I'm back at work after the long weekend. Friday was VERY slow and the office did close at 2 pm. Traffic was wonderful! :-D I went to the post office to send books for Happy and then went home and made our dinner for the Hollywood Bowl concert. I'm pretty sure Happy will have something to say about the Hollywood Bowl experience, but I'll tell it from my perspective. John Williams actually conducted, which was REALLY cool. When they played the first song Happy's face lit up. He recognized the 20th Century Fox intro (I think that's what it was) that is played before the movie starts. Of course, with John Williams came many Star Wars fans, including a large group of people with glowing lightsabers. When the orchestra played Star Wars music, the lightsabers lit up. A group of about 10 of them below us bounced the beat of the music. They really liked Darth Vader's theme!

Side note--Friday night was the first time I saw the HOLLYWOOD sign that you always see in movies. I'd heard it was pretty anti-climactic when you finally did see it, but for me it was pretty cool to see from the Hollywood Bowl.

Other impressions of mine... I LOVED IT!!! We sat next to this old couple that go to Hollywood Bowl 2-3 times a year. They were eating sandwiches and drinking wine when we got there. Ok, I have to be honest, it was pretty gross listening to her talk with all the food stuck in her teeth and dodging morsels that flew out. When she stopped eating it was much more pleasant to listen to her!

Well, it's back to work for me. I've had things to keep me busy all day today, which is good! But I do have a headache so pray that the Advil starts working :-) God bless!
