Eggs and Flu

No, don't worry, we don't have the bird flu. Those two words belong to completely separate stories.

Eggs = We got hard-boiled eggs thrown at us while sign waving tonight. One actually hit a woman's car going in the opposite direction and she almost got in an accident. Argh.

Flu = It's our turn. The Chief and Bugga have the flu. Buddha and Bugga have a cold. And I've been spared both so far. Pray for us.

That's awful about the eggs! We are hearing all sorts of rumors out here in the midwest about things going on in California. You are on the front lines!
Also, I love your new header! I have tried to use a picture in our header but it never works for me. How did you do yours??

Let's look on the bright side - at least the eggs were hard boiled! :)

Liz said...

Ha ha! One would think that'd be the bright side...except that we usually have children with us and a hard-boiled egg thrown from a moving car could really hurt if it found its mark. Now, the real bright side, as I see it, is that you have to not only have good aim, but excellent timing in order to ensure a hit. :) Luckily, they had neither.
