Mid-December Already

Kaylee had a Christmas band concert tonight.  She played the Soprano Sax.  Orchestra and band do a concert on the same night, first separately, then as one group.  They did a nice job, as always.  Unfortunately, the girl sits in the middle back there and you can't see hide nor hair of her the whole time.  So I got a couple shots of her as she was standing up to leave afterwards, and with a friend afterwards, and that's about it.  We tried to buy a DVD of the night, but the guy abandoned the table and never came back.  I did record one song at least.  :)

I did get my new glasses in from Wal-Mart.  Which meant I had to go to Wal-Mart in December.  This is a bad plan, but I didn't have a choice.  My new contacts are not in yet because they had to order them from the manufacturer, because my "power" is stronger than normal.  I may not be able to wear multi-focal contacts a lot longer.  I may get stuck with regular ones, then have to wear readers again to see close up.  I hope not for a long time.  I'm addicted to being able to see well and without effort.

I think I fended off a bad headache by drinking...Pedialyte.  Sometimes I feel like I'm dehydrated, but no matter how much water I drink, it feels like it's not helping.  So I drank Pedialyte last night, all "electrolytes", and I could feel a difference.  It tasted DISGUSTING, I almost gagged on it, but, again, I do think it helped.  I'll try again next time and see if it was a fluke or legit.

I think I mentioned that I bought this eyeliner from Sephora and I couldn't figure out how to sharpen it.  My sharpener wouldn't cut through the surrounding end, there was no way to twist it up, or push it up.  I walked into a store that sells Sephora and two girls said "I don't know, maybe that's all you get of it."  Yeah.  One tip, for $12, that wears down in 5 uses.  RIGHT.  So today I contacted them and asked for help.  They recommended a specific sharpener that should cut through.  So I ordered it, and I will be annoyed if that doesn't work.  We shall see.

Roadie's doing great.  She goes in for dental surgery next week. She's eating and gaining weight.  We got our tree up and Steve got lights on it, and now we just need to decorate it.

Flying has been a little slow, both with students and with MBros. It'll be one of my slowest flying years in record, actually.  But I have enjoyed the flying I've been doing more than normal years too.  It's been a good year in several regards.

Walking to her seat, never to be seen again until the end.

Standing up to walk out.

The back of her hair, and talking with some friends.
