The Birthday Blog

Yesterday was my birthday.  When I first got this job, everyone asked me if there was anything in particular I was looking forward to seeing in Arizona.  I always joked that my goal was to have friends by my birthday that would go to the Grand Canyon with me.  Wellll Jess had a wedding this weekend, so the Grand Canyon trip is postponed until November, BUT I had a wonderful birthday because I was surrounded by wonderful people.

I woke up to texts, Facebook wall posts, and a beautiful voicemail of Mrs. H. singing Happy Birthday to me. My mom called on my way to work.  When I got to work and saw my desk, I couldn't even believe it! They decorated my desk!






One of the event coordinators treated me to lunch, and when I got back, my fellow interns brought a cupcake with a candle while singing Happy Birthday. 








The entire day was full of texts, phone calls, and Facebook wall posts.  TONS of Facebook wall posts.


And funny cards...




When five o'clock finally arrived, I was treated to Happy Hour and sushi at Kona Grill.  These lovely ladies have become some of my best friends here.  I had an amazing birthday, and it wouldn't have come close without all the things they did for me.  I am very blessed to be surrounded by such good people.  We have so much fun together, and my birthday was no exception.  <3

Honestly

I'm a pretty honest person. When I was in elementary school, the teachers at my private school picked a character trait that they thought described each child in their class each year. It was a trait they saw in the child, and they gave our parents a certificate with our name and our chosen character trait. I have four character trait certificates. Three years I received "Honesty." The fourth year I mixed it up a little: "Truthfulness." That being said, I need to be honest for a minute. I think I have a problem with honesty. I know! I was surprised, too, when I realized it. But it's not what you think. So before you start trying to figure out what lies I may have told you, let me explain. You know how you can look back and realize something that happened to you would teach you a lesson one day? There are several moments in my life that helped come to the realization that my elementary school certificates might be invalid... Texas, Fall 2008...

All I Really Want is to be Found

I have done all the right things for all the wrong reasons I have been here before, it seems like time and time again I keep trying to find life in the places life's not found I'm recessitating old flames without thoughts of getting burned It is possible that I Could ever get it right There is nowhere else to go There is no one else to run to All around is quickly fading All I know is You've always been there Always been there, you've always been there Always been there I have seen all the endings to all my sad stories And they leave me alone, everytime its just the same You have fully accepted me with my failures Through the cross of my King, it's your mercy and your grace Is it possible that I Could finally get it right Yesterday has come and gone Everything I thought I had was wrong All I really want is to be found This is what I know, I have nowhere else to go - I have no one else to run to All around is quickly fading - All I have is...
