Okay, this week is the tribute edition of Stuff and Things. Again, thanks Rick.

On a serious note, I think we all need to take a minute (or a weekend) and watch the first 2 seasons of The Walking Dead. Think about the direction our country is headed, the enterovirus, and the ebola virus. I admit that I'm not really educated on these subjects because I spend my days obsessing over one of our country's other most debatable topics (Common Core), but I can see a pattern when it forms and I think we need to recognize when real life starts to parallel fiction. This is probably how things started for Rick and company…
Does this make me sound like a conspiracy theorist?
On a less serious note, a few of my students were discussing The Walking Dead with me. This generally happens every year and I truly wonder where their parents are. We also had a fairy-tale-themed story two weeks ago and we ended up discussing Once Upon a Time. I told them to "Set your DVRs! Frozen is coming!" and I swear I did not tell them this for The Walking Dead. I try to ignore them when they bring up stuff they shouldn't be watching.

+I like legging season. Still too warm for real pants everyday. I hate pants.
+I had an iced Americano from Starbucks last weekend and it was the best. thing. ever. The perfect blend of absolutely strong espresso and slightly sweet creaminess. I used a tablespoon or so of cream and two packets of sugar. I found my new go-to. It's also about 200 calories less and $3 less than my previous go-to. This is a major victory.
+How do you do storage on your phone? I'm being "told" that I don't have enough room for iCloud back-up. Obviously, I'm illiterate at these kinds of things, so a step-by-step guide would be appreciated. Preferably with pictures and captions.
+Next week is The Great Pumpkin Swap link-up! Hopefully everyone has sent and received their swap packages by now. If there are any problems, please let me or Becky know! See you here and at Rebeckann's Random Thoughts on October 17th (next Friday)!
