My Sister is Going to Jail

My sister has been volunteered by her boss to be taken to jail. He thinks it will be good publicity for the business. I have never heard of this, but apparently it has been happening for years. The people from the Muscular Distrophy Assoc. come to work and take you away to jail. They keep you there while you call all of your friends to come bring you bail money. Who thought of this???

There is a new plan now that if you can raise your bail money before they put you in jail, then you only have to stay an hour. That is long enough for them to put you in a striped shirt and take your picture.

So, we had a bead soup party tonight and she invited friends and clients to come and make a bracelet, and donate money to the bail out jar. Friends and clients seemed to have fun. One said she was on her way to Jo-Ann's to buy her own tools and make more! I love being a bead pusher. I create addicts. I should be put in jail.



All night, there was a fun playlist playing on the iPod. I was having flashbacks from the music. Does that happen to you? When you hear a particular piece of music, it takes you back to a different time and place? My favorite one of the evening:

Some joker played this song every day at lunchtime in the cafeteria my senior year.

What song reminds you of senior year?
