New Favorite Singer

Rumer is one of my new favorite singers.  She is British and totally reminds me of Karen Carpenter.  I hope you enjoy this hit from her recent CD.

For some reason my little counter widget got reset and no longer actually counts... It just stays at 1.  This is quite annoying....  Just so you know...

The Power of Choices

In life we are all given the glorious power to chose.  This God given right is one of the most powerful gifts we've been given.  Our choices come in a varying degree of importance.  Sometimes our choices are trivial, and meaningless.  For example, what we chose to wear in a day is of no lasting value...typically.  What we chose to do on our bday usually has no eternal ramifications.  Will I watch Judge Judy or Law and Order.  These are the least important of the choices that we make.  Conversely sometimes we make choices that have a lasting impact.  Choices of such a colossal import that the very heavens are shifted, be it in our favor or not.  Mountainous choices that need much deliberation, consideration, prayer, fasting, and consultation.  I have recently made one of these choices that has absolutely changed my world.

A Re-commitment to Kindness

Today I had the most interesting of experiences.  I decided to splurge.  I went to the CourgarEat to have myself a bit of a calzone.  I only had a few minutes to spare before going to choir.  I got my calzone and began looking for a spot to eat.  Unfortunately at the one o'clock hour, the CougarEat is not the most friendly of places for solitary snacking.  And there, I had a great experience.

It is now officially Christmas...you may rejoice.

With the iPhone comes an increased ability to communicate.  With this increased ability to communicate comes more communication errors.  Thankfully, apple is there to fix our typing errors for us....

12 Days of Christmas - Day 9

On the ninth day of Christmas my life gave to me: 9 presents bought.

So, like my father, I am notorious for doing my Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve.  This year, I decided to do it a little early.  So, I bought some gifts for my mom and for my brother.  I hope they'll like their presents.  But, because I was so proud of myself for buying presents early, I bought myself two presents: The Help and Midnight In Paris.  I just absolutely love those movies.  You know its a great day when you buy yourself 2 presents for buy presents for other people before the last second... I like to think that this is a very sound thought process :)

12 days of Christmas - Day 8

On the eighth day of Christmas my life gave to me: eight phone calls during one show.

So, one thing about being home is that my parents receive an obnoxious amount of calls during the day.  And by obnoxious, I mean it is absolutely ridiculous.  i don't even know how they survive.  Its not wonder they're always out, they can't stand the ringing phone.

Now, not all these calls are legit for them: political calls, fisherman's market, wrong numbers, toll frees etc etc etc.

Now, I had decided to sit down and watch an episode of Super Nanny because I love me some Jo Jo.  In this 60 minute program I received 8 phone calls.  It was ridiculous.  I mean, how many of you actually get that many phone calls in a 60 min period just because?  I'm guessing very few of you.  Something NEEDS to happen here!
