When meowing just isn't enough

We're not sure, but we think Sassy wanted Kole's attention.



Ya' think?

Counting Down...5...4...3...

I love Kari's 'numbers talking' post, so I decided to do my own countdown of randomness loosely defined under, 'Five things you may not know about me'.

I go to the gym 5 days a week.

I got home Sunday at 4 o'clock in the morning. It was a very good night.

On Sunday, at 3 PM, I saw the Yarn Harlot speak (she was freaking hilarious!). And they quoted my friend Steph in the Atlanta Journal Constitution article that came out on the event (hi, Steph!) and you can kind of see me and my knitting group in the photo that appeared with the article. We are ALMOST FAMOUS.



I will spoil my 2 nieces as soon as they make their arrival!

My pool game improves 100 percent after 1 beer.

How educated do you feel at this very moment? Happy Monday!

Janet, The Decider

Dude, I love the Internet. I have met so many fabulous women via my blogs, and via my dissertation research. One especially fabulous woman is Janet, author of Slice of Pink. This is one classy gal (you totally have to check out her blog if you haven't already), who has helped me make a very important decision. About my hair. And she posted about it for all the world to see (with permission, of course), because she is The Decider this month.

The big question? Cut it short, mid-length or keep it long.

And she even made a cute photo to go along with her post.

Do you agree with her decision? I totally do. Thank you, Janet!

Now, I have more decisions to make: add side-sweep bangs and/or go lighter for summer? Any thoughts, you lovely women, you? And for my male readers, please feel free to chime in. I think that would be pretty cool.

Endorphins are addictive

So, do you know what Endorphins have made me believe? That I can DO ANYTHING!

No, seriously.

Since I began working out three (just three!) days ago, I have:

1 - Worked harder and better.
2 - Started corresponding with friends and family who I haven't contacted in waaaaay too long.
3 - Started catching up on every news article known to man.
4 - Started commenting on blogs where I am a constant lurker.
5 - Thoroughly cleaned my room. And as a perpetual neat freak this has made me so happy.
6 - Started planning my older sister's baby shower in earnest.
7 - Have given up diet sodas and drank a helluva lot more water.
8 - Lost weight. Weird how that happens when you get off your ass and exercise.
9 - Had a desire to go out after work, when before I forced myself to attend meetings and other events.
10 - Started to enjoy everything more.

And there is more, so much more, but I bet I have already bored you.

Oh, gym, gym, gym. How I love thee. I have already begun counting the ways.

What makes you happy?

So far today, it has been:

1 - Getting my lazy bum out of bed early to work out at the gym.

2 - Giggling with Kole on the phone.

3 - Looking forward to English School tonight.

4 - Coffee!

5 - The Silversun Pickups and their song, Well Thought Out Twinkles.

What is making you happy today?
