all the things i want... to give. this would be a great greeting to give a friend or loved one in a time of a much needed hug. i think the right hug can heal a multitude of hurt, stress and frustration; and when accompanied with this little card, the memory is remembered forever in the mind AND forever in the card.
let us be honest... for the most part, girls will buy almost any product with a cute name. this is why i think companies like philosophy and opi stay in business, they name their products with playful and interesting names. this makeup optional skincare line is equipped with four products bearing names that add a litte wishful thinking to the process such as purity for the facial cleanser, hope in a jar moisturizer, hope in a tube for eyes and lips, and when hope is not enough anti-aging serum. i have found that this stuff works okay for normal skin but if you have break outs, i have another recommendation but will save that for another time.
high five to DLS Time. because of you, i made it out the house by at least 7:16 each morning, hit no traffic, stopped for breakfast a few times and still pulled into the office by 7:58.
high five to the Pom Tea glass i found in the office kitchen cabinet this week. the glass makes my cokes taste so much better.
high five to Ginny's Little Longhorn. nothing better than a cool texas night at a local dive with awesome friends, live music, cold beers and the best seats in the house... or right outside the front door.
high five to my ROTD at yelp.com. and because of you, i will be enjoying a mighty fine milkshake soon!
and my last high five of the week goes out to my little Bear and Buttons Highsmith. these little ladies light up my life every time i spend time with them.
i said if people commented on my posts that i would give away a prize and i stick to my word. but i will give it a few more days for you to pop your head in and say hello! so far, i only have 4 contenders... unfortunately, if you post anonymously i can't give you the prize for obviously reasons. so, leave your name or a pseudo name so i can at least track you down or call you out.
the prize will be a $15 GC from iTunes. i couldn't think of anything else better. and if you don't use itunes, i'll buy you shuffle so you can start using them. haters.

i was sending out a mass family email today and as i was scrolling through all my contacts, i came across phi_sig64@msn.com. i still have my SBJ's email in my contacts list... BIG. DEEP. BREATH.
DELETE.
i've been eyeing this Thomas Paul mouse pad for sometime now. I first saw it at See Jane Work but i sometimes have a hard time paying shipping on small items. but to my luck, i hit up Paper Place this week and found my new treasure. i love it! the epitome of form meeting function.
i need a mouse for my MacBook and though i love my trackpad and it's amazing features... sometimes it would be better to use a mouse for more efficiency on certain projects. i think me and the Mighty Mouse could work well together.

maybe it's because i live in a great little liberal city, austin, texas. or maybe it is because of my few major life experiences that have given me prescriptive. or maybe it really is because the people of my generation are changing. but why do i get so incredibly offended when people are quick to judge?!
i'll be the first one to poke fun, crack a joke, or make a snide remark at someone else's expense but my comments, complaints or concerns are in no way a judgement call on that persons personality or lifestyle. it's my poor attempt to pull some humor out of my ass and yes it may be bad moral judgement but it's not personal.
i am irritated by those of you who think you are honestly better than me... better than anyone for that matter! why is your life, your issues, your successes, your burdens so much more important than mine. do we not all have to climb something to get to the top... and do we not all fall to the same kind of depths? now, i'm not saying i don't want to hear about your trials and triumphs because i do! i think we gain a little prospective when we truly empathize with our comrades. but respect my stories as well. and don't for one second think you are better than anyone else on this rock because of your experiences. the hills you just ran across may be the next guys mountain that he has to hike up. you may be in a better place in your life than me. you may be on your way to your highest dreams. hell, you might be happy in every single aspect of your world but lets be honest.... they way you treat me... the way you treat others... may need some examining.
and yes, this may be a little bit judgemental on my part but my feelings are hurt that you think so little of me that you treat me this way. when i am shown so little respect, it makes me not want to wish you well, it makes me not want to be happy for you. and to think those feelings about other people is just not right.... it looks like i may have some work to do myself.

i was finally given a pretty big project at work. therefore, i must do work because that is what they pay me for after all. i will be a little busy for awhile and may not be able to post as much. but have no fear!... i will probably be done in a day.
i'm really weird about my necklaces... it's a bit far fecthed but the necklace i wear represents where i'm at in my life. when i was married, i wore pearls everyday, even with my jeans and tennis shoes; after my SBJ died, i wore a small celtic cross pendent; for a year after that i wore a heart; and now i think it only appropriate, i wear this sweet and simple gold Karma neck by Dogeared. JT said it best... what goes around, comes all the way back around!
