Spring Break 2011! I played shortstop for Team Cockblock today against the young couple sitting next to me in the theater. They stole 2nd base but, thankfully, never made it to 3rd
Its days like this that I’m thankful for my Attitude Wardrobe: After a night of no sleep, I had to dig deep to find my “patience” pants, my “it’s not that bad” socks, “it could always be worse” shirt, and –just to keep me on my toes - a REALLY high & tight pair of “you can still be sexy with bags under your eyes” underwear. C’mon, Wednesday, let’s DO this!
After streaming Mariachi music through my computer all morning, it’s been confirmed: I’m conditioned to crave margaritas, chips & salsa when I hear a trumpet and a Mexican man yell in a high-pitched voice, “ah-ha-ha”.
Sometimes when people "wave me through" a four-way stop, I feel like rolling down my window and saying, "...just so we're clear, I went because I wanted to, not because YOU suggested it."
The main reason why I work so hard to build strong friendships in the workplace? Because of days like today when someone brings in bagels and I end up accosting everyone with my Garlic Bagel/Coffee Breath. This cannot be tolerated by a mere acquaintance.
When I die, I hope to come back as the rainbow from a glass prism. So, if you miss me- get one and watch for me…and when I show up on your wall or hand or wherever, smile.
My toughest decision today - samoas or beer. Solution - both. I truly love my life. ♥

Closest I ever came to being a pig farmer - just stuck my finger in the raw pork shoulder as I transferred it into the crock pot. Close enough for me.
Tuna casserole trapped under my fingernail temporarily conjures up the longing for a summer's eve.
Today we achieved maximum communication in my home when I was taking a peaceful shower and my rambunctious 8 year old busted in noisily. I said, “Dude, please do NOT harsh my mellow.” And he said “ok” and did his business quietly! I know we’re not supposed to treat our children like our friends, but I can’t help it. I just really like those guys.
My co-worker: “I totally had to finger-bang my scanner to get it to work.” Me: “um. I don’t think you’re using the correct term there.”
Be your own reason for waking up in the morning.
The Spring air on my face is the same as an old friend~no matter how long it's been, it's as if no time has passed at all since we last shared a smile.
Paraphrased from a quote on my friend’s fridge: “when my kids bring me snake guts, tears, laughter and pure joy of life, may I repay them with patience, an even disposition and fair & loving discipline. May they always be as glad to know me as I am to know them"
