Random Thoughts for Monday Morning

1. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

2. I totally take back all of those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

3 . Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

4 . Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the Person died.

5 . I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

6 . You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

7. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.

8. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.

9 . I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

10. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste!

11. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

12 . I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Tequila than Kay.

13. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.

14. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

15. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.

16. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?

17 . Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
18. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

19. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!

Today my sister LAG is coming in from NYC! I pick her up from the aiport in a little over an hour. I am very excited to have her home and get some good girl time with her, our other sister LMG, and our Momma KBG.

Anyway (A Poem by St. Teresa)

This poem was written by Mother Teresa and is engraved on the wall of her home for children in Calcutta:

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centred;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

"A man doesn't learn to be a 'real man' from other men. It takes the love of a good woman for him to truely become that."

-wisdom given to my groom from the old man on the street as we took our wedding photos

Now I like just about all holidays, but does it get any better than this?!

Happy National Donut Day!!!

I always knew The Salvation Army was great, but the fact that they declared the 1st Friday in June this holiday just bumped them up another notch in my book!
