The Ball Is In Motion

Hello Folks (Y'all), have a seat. What's new with you?

May. That's the plan. I have a little time line drawn in my planner and everything. Spring will have sprung, apartments scoured, current leases: obliterated. I'll be leaving, but I won't be going very far. I have tenatively decided where I'll be landing, but I'll keep that information close, for now. We all know how often my fickle mind changes. I was already elbow deep in location possiblities before I settled on what will for now, be referred to as 'mecca'.

I did something mysterious to my back yesterday, and now it seems I must go to great pains (both literal and figurative) to get comfortable. So as you can guess, I've done little of any importantance since it happend. Oddly enough, Brandon hurt his back yesterday as well, while at work, as well as someone else, whom I can't recall right now(sorry!). I've heard somewhere things happen in threes....I guess that really happens.

Some random tidbits:

-Peanut Butter and Jelly time*? No matter how hard I try, I absolutely cannot make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I know how ridiculous that sounds, but it's a fact. My ratios are all off. Baffling!

-Does anyone really understand "fancy" teeth ( I refuse to use the word "bling" under normal circumstances)? Do rappers have their real teeth taken out, resigning to wear some sort of jewel encrusted dentures for the rest of their lives, OR do they pick up one of these little numbers? I've actually encountered an average joe wearing these locally.

-Now that card season has come upon us, Miss Manners has been gracious enough to pass along her tips on how to avoid offending your recipients by way of common mistakes. As a person who used to get insulted (but now, after years of being adressed with the wrong last name, just has that 'glazed eye' look) I figured I'd pass the article on.

-I've realized recently (recently being in the last month or so) that when I speak to someone I'm slightly nervous to speak to (maybe for the first time, maybe someone I'm not too comfortable being around, etc) I sound completely idiotic. If you've spoken with me recently check for these signs:
-Excessive use of the word "like"
-Forced giggling (I assure you it wasn't really forced..just came out that way)
-"Nose talking"-thanks to my month long cold.
If these or any other strange occurances plagued one of our conversations, please know that it was just a fluke. I am not as stupid as I appeared. Ahh...that feels better.
