Things I Decided I Need Start Doing

Here is a list of things I've recently decided I need to start doing to get my life in order:

1. Read the news every morning.  Let's be honest here, my head has been stuck in the sand for quite some time now.
2.  Wear lip gloss or lipstick.  It's grown up.  I already look like the baby of my office. I need to step it up.
3.  Listen to sports radio.  I just cannot keep up with the male mind's sports knowledge.  But truthfully I haven't tried that hard.  My career kind of revolves around it and I need to be more in the know.
4.  Paint my nails.  I may be too cheap to get manicures, but that doesn't excuse me from taking care of my nails and keeping them looking polished.
5.  Buy new work clothes.  As I mentioned above, I am pretty cheap so I don't really buy work clothes.  However, I've lost about fifteen pounds this year so my clothes are pretty baggy on me.  I need to bite the bullet and buy a couple pencil skirts and tops that actually fit and don't drown my figure.
6.  Follow Texas A&M new more closely.  Thursday my coworkers were talking about the new football stadium the Aggies are going to building and I said, "WHAT!? We are getting a new football field?"  Then I was crucified for not knowing because apparently it is old news.  Oops. 

I think all of these can be summed up in one sentence.  I need to act more like a grown up. Ha! We'll see how this goes.

But I did get a new grown up hair cut today :)

Isn't He the Cutest Thing You've Ever Seen

This might be the cutest picture Jeter has ever taken. 

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...
