Blog Numero Dos

So, since I don't really have anything else to do, I'm going to quick write a blog about the funny things that happened to us yesterday. Because it's funny and pretty classic for us. :)

So, in my previous blog, I mentioned that we have been exercising and that we ran to town together yesterday. We finished with school at 3 and the plan was for all of us to put our exercise clothes on, leave our things at school, run down, get a ride back, and pick up our school things before getting home.

I left my room to go change, but first I had to bring my copies to the office, so I dumped my clothes and tennis shoes outside the office and filled out my copy sheets. I was probably in the office for two minutes, but when I came back out, my tennis shoes were gone. I started looking around, couldn't find them, asked the cleaners, my principal, and the other teachers. The kids had just left on the bus, so I was kind of afraid that someone had taken them... on accident? on purpose? Anyway, the point was everyone was ready to go and I was still standing around in my uniform and only high heels to walk in. :) The other girls decided to continue looking for my shoes while I changed into everything else. When I was finished, the girls had just returned from their quest- with my shoes! Apparently, our other principal, Mr. Calderon, had thought they belonged to one of the kids and had taken them and gone around to all the buses seeing if someone forgot them. :) So, I quick threw my shoes on- by now it was 3:15 and we really wanted to make it down to town before the bank closed at 4. We all threw our things into Catelin's room and started down the road. It was a really great run! It's a nice, easy decline so you can still run and not feel like you're going to fall down the whole mountain, but it's not completely flat so the running is a little easier. All four of us (Jennifer, Catelin, Shelly, me)ran for basically the whole time. We got down to town at 3:40 and Catelin said, "It'd be really nice if a moto came by on this road to bring us to the bank so we make sure we don't miss it" and probably two minutes later.... a moto taxi came and we hopped in! We found all the things we needed, our moto taxi driver friend, Mauricio, picked us up at 4:58 - two minutes early!! (usually they're anywhere from 30-60 minutes late haha), and we were on our way up. All of us were talking about what a great afternoon it was and how there'd been no problems like we usually have. Shelly and Catelin had made some great, random purchases and Jennifer and I had bought popcorn and knock-off M&Ms for our Harry Potter marathon. As we were nearing the school, Catelin pulled out her key to her room and..... it was not the key to her room. It was the key to our house. We quickly remembered all the things that were in the room- all of our school clothes, our school work, our keys, computers, cell phones.... We stopped at the school anyway to see if anyone was there with a key to the classrooms... Shelly broke the fence (although if you ask her about it, she will say it was me. It wasn't), and Don Juan, the 'guard' asked me who all the girls were with me- I told him they were teachers and he asked if they taught at a different school! haha so he kind of thought the girls were just breaking into the school and besides that, had no keys to anything. SO, we got back in our moto taxi, without any of our things, and headed up to our house. Luckily, Catelin had left her computer with all the Harry Potter movies downloaded at home; unluckily my speakers were still at the school... but we still managed to watch some of the first movie as long as we sat very quietly. We still ate our popcorn and M&Ms, and had a good night together. This morning, we walked back down to the school, and someone was there with keys so we were able to get our things. Which is why I have my computer and am able to write to all of you! :) Pretty eventful afternoon and evening :)
