The Honesty Police

So I am feeling a bit like a stool pigeon...in the last week I have 'tattled' on 4 people for dishonest acts...now I see FAR more than that but these had effects directly upon me...

First: My boss is stealing from the company...she is ordering merchandise under her maiden name and tearing up the order forms...now if this were a candybar or something that small I would say "ok...so you are a liar and are going straight to hell...just don't make a mess before you go" BUT the business is not doing so good as of late and she is taking HUNDREDS of dollars of stuff...so far over a thousand that we know about. So I mentioned it to the Office Manager...and it got to the owner. The wierdest part is that she will not be fired for it...she is the owner's sister-in-law. Call me callus and rude but if you were stealing from me you'd be fired - even if you were my mother...

Second: there is a girl and two guys who cheat on tests in my Economics class. It is a class of 150 or so, and for tests you are usually sandwiched in tight and they just sit in a row and whisper and help each other out...well the first time I gave them the benefit of the doubt, but myself and the two girls I sit by (and study with) noticed it for the next two tests....normally I would say "ok...so you are a cheat and are going straight to hell...just don't make a mess before you go" BUT the teacher grades on the curve and they are likely getting A's that should be going to other students...grrr...so me (and the other two girls) went up to the teacher after the exam and mentioned it...


So am I a snitch? Or was I right to do what I did?? Shouldn't we stand up for honesty!??

Pictures

Ok, here are the promised pictures


Here are Nathan and I - all 'western-ed' up


Here is the Kitty Litter Cake


These are 'Simple Pimples' and 'Awful Arachnids'


Here is the total 'Graveyard Goodies' Spread

Winston, not sure what to think


Our front porch/bone-graveyard.

Besta, in his Spiderman costume


My brother, Brad, eating one of the 'awful arachnids'...I made them out of Royal Icing and they took FOREVER but looked really cool...

Called the Police?!?

so tonight we got home after the football game and we were playing with Besta in the front yard and a cop pulls around the cul-de-sac very slowly and stops in front of our house and gets out. He came up to us and asked us if we just got home - and said someone had called in a report that a dog was making a whole 'lot of ruckus' and it was in 'this' cul-de-sac...we explained to him that Besta whines, but doesn't bark - and asked if the caller had specified which the dog was doing...cause if it was Besta we need to nix that asap...but he said it was barking...and I know there are a couple dogs that bark ALL THE TIME just through the fence from us and I wonder if it was them...

It kinda pisses me off...it makes me hate our neighborhood even more...so next time that Mexi-pop music starts at 8am on a Sunday I am calling the cops...

Halloween

ok...so since I only got ONE suggestion before the date (thanks Janus!) we decided to go with something we kida already had. My work last year had the theme to their big dinner-dance as 'Wild, Wild West', so I had bought some sexy-hot cowgirl boots and a cute skirt and hat...Nathan had bought a duster and hat and boots. So we went as a 'Cow-couple'...and we were pretty cute if I do say so myself. I have some pictures of all the crazy food and costumes - if I can find my darned cable I'll get them transferred and uploaded tonight or tomorrow...it was pretty fun overall... :)

QUESTION!!

ok, so I am having a halloween party and I'm not sure what to be...Nathan and I could match or we could be completly separate - but I have to be something VERY GOOD...after all I m the Hostess with the mostess - so my question to you is what should I (or we) be??


oh, and it needs to be faily simple to put together in 2-3 days...

Snow

So it snowed Wednesday night....yep, it is October and it snowed...and the freakier part is that some lawns around town STILL have traces of snow on them...

While it was snowing I was thinking "Whoo Hoo, snow day" and then I remembered where I live and the fact that only like 4 feet in one night would be enought to likely deter school or work... :( That was one nice thing about RI - when it snowed only a few inches we got snow days...

waste of time...

remember how about a month ago I was complaining about an essay I had to write for my Sociology class?? Well this new essay for her class is just as asinine...it could be answered in ONE paragraph yet she wants us to blather on for 1-2 pages...idiot
