Two things made me laugh out loud today at school:

1) I had a 5th grade flute lesson consisting of three very talented flautists(?).  They had packed up their cases and closed their band folders, and were in the process of walking to the exit when someone saw a flute on a chair and said, "Who's flute is that?"  Another replied, "It's Mr. Lindberg's".  Holding my flute in my hand, I pointed out, "No...my flute is right here.  Um...does anyone's case feel unusually light?"  After looking around at each other, one of the girls said, "Oh.  Wait a minute."  She sat down, opened her case, and was faced with the bitter reality that she had in fact closed her case without putting her flute in it.

2) I took a stroll through the cafeteria on my way to the stage.  The kindergarteners were eating lunch and I noticed a little girl who seemed particularly well-pleased with her lunch.  All the other kids were munching on their pb&j-on-white bread sandwiches and eating their fruit and pudding snack packs.  Not our little foodie, no, no.  She was daintily eating a bowl of pasta salad -- fancy stuff, too: farfalle, olives, pepperoni, cheese, etc.  It just made me laugh.  What a sophisticated 5-year old.
