Various and Sundry Thoughts

Here are some random things rolling through my mind. I think some of these could be their own blog, if I wasn't so tired of being at my computer already:

• I can't decide if I love or hate Facebook. It's way too much technology for me. On one hand, I feel like it's a little creepy how people pop up out of the past, on the other hand, I find myself looking up people. I got so excited tonight when I found my freshman roommate and another good college friend - haven't seen or talked to them in many many years.
• We got a hamster. The whole commitment piece of it is freaking me out a little. And I don't care what anybody says about "litter training" a hamster - it's a scam. Either that, or our hamster didn't get that memo.
• Husband has been experimenting with singing an octave lower than normal. Given his propensity to already sing loudly and off-key, this made for some real interesting music at mass this morning.
• I've never put up a Christmas tree so early...I can't believe I put mine up in November! (today, to be exact)
• Kirby had his first big boy punishment today. He had to write "I will control myself" 6 times for showing his hiney to his brother. Seriously...what's the big deal with hineys?
• We've been to quite a few movies with the boys, but never all together. Saw "Bolt" yesterday with all of Team Fed (including Gramma and Pop-pop). There's nothing better than a little kid (especially your own) belly laughing next to you at the movies!
• My father-in-law arrived at our house with four flashlights that he brought all the way from NJ. This is so that he doesn't find himself unprepared should our power go out. It could also be because the light in the guest room has been broken for three years and his son has yet to fix it for him as promised.
• What am I still doing awake? I am going to go start a good book that I've been waiting to read over break. I still have a good couple of projects left, but what the heck?
