rum pum pum pum.

we had our Christmas program last week. my students were the sheep and the shepherds - some complete with cowboy hats and cumber buns. i can't even calculate the number of times i had to remove shepherd staffs from their little hands in order to prevent an eye being poked out. i have no doubt they would be great at 'watching the flock by night'. by the end of the program we were all dripping in sweat. it made singing 'we wish you a Merry Christmas' seem completely out of place.

hahahahahaha...

sweating for Christmas? ENJOY IT BUDDY!

It's colder than butts here in CO. We apparently set a new record the other night by reaching -18 AIR TEMPERATURE overnight, with wind chills dropping much much lower...

It is funny though.. because of the dry air, the Denver cold doesn't FEEL nearly as cold as the Iowa cold... it's odd really. Anyhow. you'll be freezing your BUM off soon enough, so, if I was you, I'd spend my last day in Africa sweating like a wildebeest!
