Bacon, Boxes and... Where's Logan? (again) An ecclectic posting of questions of the day

Does anyone smile when they’re cooking bacon?

Do you? My son J~ was visiting and said his wife was so happy cooking cinnamon rolls this morning, but as soon as she started on the bacon her smile inched down to a frown. J~ happily took over for her and he was soon frowning.

Why is Momma looking at me like that???

At scripture study this morning my other son, J~ claimed I was ‘looking’ at him—like this...

I feel that that certainly was not the case. It was

probably more like this:

Why is there dirt on all of the tables…?

My daughter A~ had been hoping that the school district would hire her this year, but they’re not hiring. Finally, last week they called her to do a 4-month long-term sub job in kindergarten at W~. I urged her not to wait until the official ‘first day back for teachers’ but to go in and start getting the room ready now (a process that takes hours and hours). What did we find? A cavernous classroom (it used to be some kind of metal shop or? room for a junior high school—it’s huge!), a mountain of furniture, dirt on the tables (not dust—it was dirt)… and cobwebs everywhere…. Oh my goodness! And boxes…everything was hidden in boxes, tons of boxes. We felt like the teacher in this photo: Aaaah!

Where is Logan?

This question has been addressed before, but he’s gone again. I must admit, there were some facts left out of the first story that are pertinent to this second story…

Logan, also known as Ellbee, was actually enveloped by a horde (swarm? Pod? School?) of young, cute, Asian vampire-borg-collective-War-World-type-video-game-playing praying mantises and taken to their lost city. Once there, the accommodations were too dangerous and interesting for him to even care to try and extricate himself. That’s the true story. And if you believe that, you won’t have to worry-- too much--that Ellbee has gone missing again, because this time… this time he let his Siamese twin/borg friend (my son) know that he’s off on another wild adventure with the world of warquest women… (But it’s all highly unusual, as Ellbee was never one to wander off and/or put himself in the way of praying mantises capable of carrying him to far-off places and getting into who-knows-what mischief. Hmff.) Anyone wanting to share part of the weekend with him, may go to one of the shows the group is visiting in L.V. … “The Amazing Johnathan(please click).”

(But only tune in if you like messy nonsense. I’d rather go see Colin Mochrie (please click)& Brad Sherwood… on second thought, they’re probably full of messy nonsense too… but we’ve got tickets to see them tomorrow night.)
