Turning 25 didn't really make me an adult. Buying a new car, NOT co-signed by my parents didn't make me an adult. Being on my own car insurance didn't make me an adult. Finishing college didn't make me an adult. Having a full-time job didn't make me an adult.
But THIS did.
Yup...that's right. I am now officially a member of Costco Warehouse. My card came in the mail with MY name on it. I'm getting old!
Tonight, as I was doing some cryptograms like the nerd that I am. I determined that I am dyslexic...very minorly...but nonetheless, I think I am. I mix up my M's and W's so much! It's so annoying. And as I was researching Dyslexia...I also found out that another sign is using one hand to write and the other to play sports or other things. I'm totally like that too. I write and eat with my left hand...but in sports I'm right handed...I even use scissors with my right hand...facinating, huh? I think the only reason I use scissors with my right hand is because in kindergarted I refused to use the lefty scissors...they were old and ugly and had the gross green handles. So I trained myself to be right handed in the world of scissors.
Man, this was like the most boring post ever...I apologize.
Thank you, thank you thank you little Randi for not being a mindless goon and standing up for what's right and for NOT voting for Taylor for town council. I don't know what my deep sense of justice would have done, had Taylor been re-elected.
Little kids of the world...I hope this show is teaching you a thing or two about leadership. A good leader never says, "DEAL WITH IT"...other variations of this phrase include, "My way or the highway." "Get over it", "It's my decision, what you say doesn't matter." A good leader gives guidance and explains decisions and leads by example. And they don't SAY they are going to work hard to rebuild Bonanza city and then refuse to do any work! Ok...I'll come down off my soap box now. I'm just glad Taylor got what she deserved.
In other TV news (cuz that's what's important in life) what was up with The Office tonight? I mean I thought it was a comedy? Talk about Debby Downer! The whole fun of the Office is laughing at how dumb and stupid and wierd Dwight and Michael are. You can't make fun of people you feel bad for. Now it's like laughing at widows and orphans...and I'm not down with that.
I've been working on my portfolio for photography and design...so I've been working on a logo for myself. Which one do you like best? Oh...and the M stands for MARIE...my middle name. Don't go crazy. Ha ha ha.
So we have these framed photographs in the hallway of our office as you walk into the student ministries area. I hated them. They made me angry everytime I walked by them. I'm sorry if the person who chose them/ took them is reading my blog...but they were out-dated...I don't think there was a single kid in them that hadn't already graduated. AND they were pretty much of nothing at all. High School kids from far away eating food at tables, an adult flipping burgers, blurry faces, getting soda from a machine. I mean c'mon! I don't really think that they accurately portrayed what we do in student ministries. So I changed them. It was quite an endeavor. The dumb pictures had been stapled and sealed to the frames...so Katie Shannon and I had quite the time removing the staples with things such as, exacto-knives (or box-cutters...if you are Allison Murray), screwdrivers, letter openers...etc. But the most important thing...we did it! Here's the pics that made the cut!
Vote for best band picture please... 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
In other news...Mean Girls is on TNT. I didn't know that it's been long enough for Mean Girls to be put in the same category as such classics as: Ten Things I Hate About You, Never Been Kissed, and Save the Last Dance (which is actually on now.)
I think this might be the first time in history that my room, my bathroom, my desk at work, and my car have ALL been clean at the same time. Remarkable!!!
I'm really sorry that I haven't posted in a while. As you can tell from the picture I've been busy. I painted my room. You can't really tell the colors in that picture but it's green and tan...I enjoy it. Now I need to just hang up all my pictures. But I did paint that painting above my bed. Cute huh! Here's a better picture...although the camera phones aren't real good at white balance. Sorry! I promise, I'll be a better blogger, but we are getting new carpet tomorrow so we have no internet right now. Grace is appreciated.
