i'm boycotting Maybelline lash stylist mascara. It caked on my eyelashes and took forever to wash off. I ended up scrubbing my eyes until they were raw. My friend was on the phone with me and kept calling me obsessive but all i could think was that my eye lashes were stuck together and must be freed from this tar. I kid you not, it took a half an ( Read more... )

I feel like the world is spinning, not turning or rotating, literally spinning. And you may think that this would make me nauseous but it's actually a lot of fun. When I was a kid I got such a thrill out of tire swings, the faster the spin the greater the fun. Normal swings were cool too, my dad would push me and scream "wonder woman!!!!!!" I was ( Read more... )

On Saturday night I drove up to Rhode Island to visit my best friend, Maria. I had to get there really late cause she didn't get out of work until 10pm. She decided to drive home with me on Sunday night and be stranded in Connecticut. As we were packing up the car and driving away I heard a bumb and asked Maria what she thought I had run over. She ( Read more... )

I intend to make the most of this year. I intend to tell people when I dream about them, no matter how bizarre the dream, wait... I take that back. I intend to not say the words "shut up" anymore, or "you're an idiot"...it's just rude even in jest. I intend to yawn less and laugh more. I intend to not pick blemishes on my face. I intend to put ( Read more... )

I'm thinking of going to grad school for my MA in English. This has always been a passion of mine but I felt like I needed a well deserved break from academia and now i'm itching to return. This can only work if it's the Lord's will because I would have to maintain a full time job along with the work load. I went to Southern's Grad study page and ( Read more... )

Last night I went to dinner with my mother and sister. It's refreshing to be around people who truly know me. I can be silly, serious, moody. I feel like i'm more myself around them than I am when alone, does that make sense?
On a lighter note; I made some ghetto Pad Thai late last night. Can you say sloppy noodles and peanut butter?

Last night went I got home from work I was able to go through my purse and see what was still there and what had been rummaged through. Everything was in the wrong place and it felt weird to know that someone had gone through all of my stuff and yet here it was in my hands. It looks like the person only took cash and my glasses. I couldn't care ( Read more... )

YO, This is what happens when you know Jesus. So yesterday afternoon my purse was stollen from my desk at work. I had everything in that purse that identified me. Credit cards, bank cards, license, social security card, my glasses, my keys, my sisters keys, a pair of diamond earings that my mother had given me two years ago, Not to mention that it ( Read more... )

I'm not going to pretend for a second that I understand what it's like to be a mother. In fact, i've always looked at my own mother with adoration at her unselfish nature. That nature being so foreign to me, i've watched my mother put her children's needs before her own without complaints, oddly enough she seems to enjoy it. That's the part that's ( Read more... )

My new favorite word is "possibilities".. I love that we serve a God of possibilities; a God who has given us a world of possibilities. I have to say that God has me in a season of security. I feel secure even when things around me are changing, that's a new feeling for me. My sister has been in and out of the hospital this year with a bone ( Read more... )
