So, it is after midnight. I should be asleep. I have to leave my house for work in less than 7 hours and what am I doing... testing my 5th grade knowledge. Or is it 4th?
Well, Brandon and I went to one of those sites... and it times you as you name as many of the states that you can in ten minutes. "Ten minutes is a long time" is what I'm sure you are all thinking- to name 50 little states. Well, try it, you just think and think and can't remember that one or two (or 6 if your Brandon- love you hun!).
I am happy, yet still frustrated to report that I only missed one...silly Oklahoma. My victory in this little game earns me the treat of my choice at a store as long as it's under $3. I'm so excited!!

It's definitely 5th grade. I finished it with 5 min. remaining. I better be good at it, because I teach it.
That is interesting. I had 2 minutes and 30 seconds left. This got me thinking but it's a good thing since some of my kids will be doing their states and capitals test in a couple months or sooner. That is cool that you guys found some sites like that. Hope things are going good for you guys. Glad you were able to find a job and hope you enjoy it.
Okay, I felt silly enough for forgetting a state... especially one that is the name of a musical that gets stuck in my head every month or so... But after mr smarty pants husband of mine couldn't think of 6 I thought I was doing so well. You teachers are too smart for me. Oh and for the record, I'd named 41 or 42 in the first five minutes. :)
i missed 11. i swear i was absent the day that they taught the state song... i did the best i could!!!
That was really fun! I know a song as well, that is the only way we got it in time. (Barely in time though!)
