The humor behind the voice
Jeff Ronner is the voice. The cool guy who has recorded mine, Kim's and Tami's voicemail.
Last week in error I phoned him during the All Hands Meeting when I was attempting to send him a text (he was asking a question and I was trying to give him kudos on that great voice)
My text "Called in error. Sorry. Love that voice!"
His response:
"That's OK. With a phone, the dialing possibilities are endless! "
Love this guy!!

My Birthday Trip to Big Bear
Tarzan has wanted to take me to Big Bear Lake for quite a while. After significant research he decided to surprise me for my birthday (Average yearly temperature in January is 47 degrees).
Mother Nature had other plans. Despite our resolve to attempt Highway 330 on Friday and Saturday, it just kept snowing (yes they have not received this much snow in 34 years).
Finally Saturday afternoon the local police department made the decision that only residents could get through.
Change of plans. We decided to the Southern California Harley Tour and pick up all the patches from the stores (you can all insert laughter here). After a bad experience at Quaid (out of patches, out of pins, out of stickers) the plans were changed again.
Change of Plans take 2: LA's Fashion District.
Somehow this is the only picture I took. I think I was completely overwhelmed with the feeling that I had crossed over the border wearing clothing meant for a snow cabin.

Got to go to bed early. Saved a ton of calories (had planned to make S'Mores at the cabin), get to see Kim today and will be back in Phoenix for my birthday.
Love you Mother Nature

The unnamed blog
This blog does not have a blog title. The problem is that it could be one of many. For example:
1. How do you get your news?
2. Another 15 minutes of fame
3. Sophia looks bored to tears
4. Hey thats my seat next to Tamara Larsen
5. Carpooling will be easy in 2011
And the rest of the story
So, big news in the City of Mesa. The School Board met last night to discuss/vote on several changes in the school the system. The most controversial was moving the 9th graders to the high school. I weighed back and forth rather I should go and support the cause and decided against it (didnt want to deal with the drama and didnt want to break the 3 day streak of starting a new habit).
My sister on the other hand; super mom who got her boyscout son Clark to do the pledge of allegiance at the meeting did go. She has this inane ability to get in the news. I lost count with her bouts of 15 minutes of fame - but we are probably in the twenty count (the girl who pulls the number on loto, the expert on chickens etc)
Today I get an email from dad, followed by repsonse from Ruth and Tami that the changes passed with a "check out the Mesa Tribune". Tarzan even gets a text from Tami to see the Mesa Tribune.
I/We check the news online. Oh good it passed the end.
Then tonight MJM says to me "did you see Aunt Tami in the paper"? What? No I looked online and didnt see it. Tarzan concurs.
When I come home I pull out the paper and sure enough - the best "I am involved in the community picture" ever! And the story was better than that online.
I may need to change how I view my news.

Cool newspaper close up of the Larsen's
