One of these days...

...I'm gonna get up

early enough

to have a

Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit

from McDonald's

for breakfast.

Today was not the day.

We'll see how tomorrow goes.

Top Ten Reasons Why...

...I loved the weekend:

(in chronological order)

1. Homemade Cafe Rio

2. New episode of Prison Break

3. A celebration for a friend who is getting married

4. Faith Like Potatoes

5. Cheese Fries

6. Modern Pioneer vs. The American Dream

7. Yes Man

8. Texas Caviar

9. A housewarming party

10. A 3-year-old's birthday

Fun at the Nickel*Cade...

...Or as I like to think of it,

a mini casino for kids.

Friday night was full of fun.

Wendy's and then the Nickel*Cade.

with Matt, Katherine, Darrin, Ryan, and me.

There is something so satisfying

in giving nickels to a machine

in the hopes of a receiving

a large return in tickets.

With my tickets I got

a neon orange slap bracelet,

a plastic back scratcher,

and some laffy taffy's.

Let the good times roll!

Then some games -

Burst, Pit, and Scrabble Apple.

What a fantastic Friday!

Things to enjoy...

...While it's raining:

Sleeping in,

reading a good book,

watching a sappy chick flick,

working on a craft project,

dancing to the radio,

making cookies,

drinking hot chocolate.

All good things.

Spending the day at work.

Not so much!

Once upon a time...

...My hair used to look like this:

Now it looks like this:

Self-portraits are not my strongest talent

(or talent of any size, for that matter!)

but here you have it.

Before and after.

I don't know about you,

but I like it!

(the hair, not the self-portrait...)
