Kelli: When I had to thank my housekeeper for finding my daughter's toy poop that she'd lost. I never thought I'd say, "thank you for finding Barbie's dog's poop for me."
Nat: Dang. It had to be a few months ago when I was in an online meeting with a bunch of professors and students. I was the lead instructor for the meeting. In short, I had a kid wake up, thought I put my mic on mute (put the recording on pause) and then proceeded to scream for my husband as my child was screaming bloody murder. This went on for a sold 15 seconds before I heard one of the other instructors say "Um, class it sounds like Ms. Long needs a few minutes, lets take a 3 minute break". I. COULD. HAVE. DIED.

DeleteKelli - I am envious of your memory!
ReplyDeleteNat - I recommend using Windows Live Writer for composing/editing blog posts. And with the Dynamic Template plugin - HEAVEN.
And Nat, that is my biggest fear - not muting the phone when I thought I did. OMG I feel ya!! And Pitch Perfect is a great movie! I actually didn't get why everyone was obsessed with it the first time I watched it, but once I watched it again I got it. It's one of the few movies I can rewatch over and over.
