Bottle Caps and more...

I have come to the realization that I HATE the brown Root Beer flavored bottle caps (candy). For a while, I thought I could come to enjoy them, but I just ate one. This was the first time that it actually tasted disgusting. I guess that made up my mind. No more brown bottle caps. For those of you who do not know what bottle caps are. .. I recommend not eating the brown ones when you figure it out.

Last night, I was so productive.. So proud of myself. I finished the scarf I was knitting. What a joy, what an accomplishment. Okay, so that may be an overstatement. But, it is a big deal. I sat down last night for a little over an hour and finished knitting my scarf. I was so impressed with myself. Understand, that i was also watching TV (so I was not knitting that fast). But, I think it turned out well. I am going to wear it. My next knitting project.. Another scarf. You see, all I can knit are scarves. I have tried reading the instructions on how to knit anything else, and they are just jibberish to me. So, I have long ago given up that hope. Anyways, who is going to want a sweater that I knit? Not me. Homemade scarves are just so much more stylish. lol. At least I think so. Especially if I make it.

I had the most bizarre comment from one of my students today in class. Rigoberto (Rigo) was looking out the window and says "all these houses around here are weird". I look out the window and am confused because they all look pretty typical for the area. So, I ask Rigo why they look weird. His response is "because they are all so nice". Okay, this would be a logical response if the school was located in Whitefish Bay, or South Milwaukee, or.. anywhere but this neighborhood. The houses are not nice. I mean its inner-city Milwaukee. Then, I thought, if he thinks these houses are really nice, what kind of house does he live in. At that point, I was thankful for what I had.
