For all of you that do not have a young teenager living in your home there are 2 things going on right now. The Beatle-like phenomenon of The Jonas Brothers (the paint on my wall will never be the same from the sticky-tac used for all the posters.) If you are not a Jonas Brothers fan, the other big thing is the Twilight book series.
Well lucky us, we have one of each. Katie goes to Barnes & Noble at midnight for each new release of the Twilight books (and this week the DVD came out, so I wonder how many times we'll be seeing that)
This post however is about Drew, Lesa, the Broward County School System, 4 or 5 of our closest adult friends, AT&T and a HUGE panic. Here is the story:
Anna is beyond crazy over the Jonas Brothers. They are coming to town. She made arrangements to go and told 4 of her friends not to worry she would order the tickets and they could pay her later (at $100 a ticket...did I mention to you that Anna's last name is Trump?). Now here is where the story gets interesting. Tickets went on sale yesterday (Monday) at 10:00 a.m. 2 days before midterms at Flanagan High School. So Anna decides to rely on Drew to buy the tickets.
At 9:45 a.m. I get a frantic call from Drew, not only is the server down at his school, but he has called a bunch of our friends at other schools and the entire Broward School Board is "down". So I run into Anna's room (a place I usually try to stay far, far away from) log on to the computer and guess what----AT &T is down!!!!!!!
Now we have visions of 5 girls with their hopes and dreams totally crushed as all of their other friends go to the concert and leave them at home to listen to the CD-and of course it would be all Drew's fault. Sooooo, Drew goes "old school" picks up the phone and starts dialing, over and over. FINALLY at 10:40 Drew gets a real live person on the phone and the tickets are purchased! Whew!!!!!!!! A quick text message to Anna and 5 girls are very happy, Now we just have to get our money back.....

A Game: Pick the Canadian
Above you will see several pictures of our family. Please look closely and choose which person grew up in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The temperature here in SOUTH FLORIDA was around 45 degrees.
