summer stuff

I know it's been so forever since I blogged that it's basically like this blog is kaput. But here's a little something:

The theatre I've been hanging with does a workshop for kids during the summer, and I said I would help out if I could assist someone else and not be totally in charge of the kids by myself. So I assisted Jenny, and we were assigned to the 5-7 year olds. Kinda wish I was with the older kids, but what the heck. Anyway, Jenny introduced herself and then she said, "And this is Miss Lisa." I waved, and five hands immediately shot up and Jenny called on each kid and they all said, "My mom's name is Lisa," one right after the other. What a fad the name Lisa was. The bell bottoms of names.

The kids were mostly sweet, but there were a few annoying ones, as there are in any class, but I have no patience for them. I want to eviscerate them. Is that bad? Oh, that reminds me that I have another blog post that I started but never finished about an annoying kid in Ellie's girl scout troop. I'll post that one too.

Good news is that Ellie LOVES her theatre camp, which she's in every day in the mornings. It's a complete switch from last year's regular swim-craft-hang-out camp, which she loathed and despised and complained about every day. I'm so happy that I found something she has a good time with.
