puzzle pieces

i have a lot on my mind right now--(and that's definitely an understatement). and it's all very interesting, perplexing, exciting, frustrating, unfathomable, etc, etc. these thoughts and ideas are like a bunch of puzzle pieces, and as i look at them right now it's a big jumbled mess. they don't seem like they will ever fit. EVER.
yet, somehow, i know they will begin to mold into each other.

i think as they come together...even i will be surprised by the picture.

Candy Store Fun

Good times, good times!!

Videos

you need to go see these amazing videos on YouTube.

the first one is called Amazing Beatbox in the Train.

and the second is Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem.

yeah. so go watch them.

i'm getting braver...

and that makes me happy!!

that's all. :)

tonight was...

a GREAT night!!

it's always nice to get to know people on a more intimate level. but what's even better than that, is when you become better acquainted with someone, but feel like you've known them all your life. i had a night like that.

so, a little shout is going out to Mel and Judy. Hollar!!!
You two are definitely kindred spirits. and i'm ever so thankful.

:)

gracias a mi amigo Tim!

a big THANK YOU to my fun, wacky, witty and all-around outstanding friend Tim for introducing me to"Google Reader" this evening.

It's AMAZING!!!

I no longer have to check all of my friends blogs everyday to see if they've blogged about their newest haircut, latest girl infatuation or rather, to see if they even blogged at all. Thanks to google technology, I now have put almost all my regularly viewed blogs on my google reader; which will let me know when you, yes YOU, have blogged. I no longer have to have a daily ritual of checking to see if you posted something, then be completely disappointed when you haven't. My newest and greatest application will now do all the work. And like the marketing claims, I will now: Stay up to date; Simplify my reading experience; and last but certainly not least, Discover new content!!!

Can it get any better?? I don't think so Tim. (he he!)

So, to you Tim, with happiness of heart and new found respect, I say...Thank You.

For this act of kindness and friendship you have shown, I present to you a picture of a "rolex replica" to show my gratitude.



Just so you know, I picked out the picture myself. I thought the fake encrusted diamonds added a little something extra.
Nothing but the best for you, buddy.

Enjoy Tim. Enjoy.

today at the "Y"

it's definitely friday--yippee!!--and i haven't accomplished much at work. as i sit here at my desk, around 3:30ish, debriefing with myself about my days work (and i use the word "work" very loosely), i've found that i have managed to do a whole lot of...nothing. yep. i'm sure it's apparent to you the reader, as i sit here writing this, instead of "Y" things. but i look at it like this, i am continuing on in my goal of doing nothing today. i didn't wake up with this goal; this goal found me when i walked in the door at 9:05am.

here's a list of what i have accomplished today....

~went to Starbucks for Angie & Mike
~entered registrations for some new kiddos to the Afterschool program (ah, some work was accomplished today!!)
~fed my Fish, MG!
~checked my emails (nothing good there either. phooey!)
~checked my 2 "Y" email accounts. which involves responding to crazy and some not so crazy parents, schools & coworkers; and of course, my daily ritual of erasing many spam emails that i get. for example: Russian women want to meet YOU; enlarging members; and of course, the countless Viagra adds!! (i mean seriously already!!)
~took some registration packets to the Mapleton Center (cool, more work being done)
~did a song & dance for the billing department. (yes, indeed i did)
~picked up Tokyo Joe's for jenell's and my lunch. (mmm, Sushi)
~looked at houses on the internet with angie.
~watched a velociraptor imitation by Kristen.
~sent some emails to parents regarding financial assistance. (oooh, more work being done)
~sang loudly along with Savage Garden's I Knew I Loved You on my Yahoo Launchcast radio player.
~looked at myspace, blogger, facebook and all those other social networks i can get on.
~more singing, more dancing, more laughing
~finished up my "Y" work (good job rae, good job!)

okay, i did do some work. it just didn't seem like it, because i've played more than worked today. but, i can't help that i'm so efficient that i'm ahead of the game. that's just who i am! oh yea. but, now i have a little over 2 hours with nothing left to do. hmmm. well, i guess it's time to perform another showtune for the billing department.

okay, i'm out!
