tee he he...

the other night after the Origins Women's Chick Flick night, my lovely friend Jill was kind enough to take Keely and I home after the evening-o-love. Now Jill always has 2 car seats in the back of her car and she's not sure how to take them out.

So...Carol--who came with her--and Keely had to sit in the back seat IN the car seats while she drove us all home.

Here's a few good pics of their ride...

only carol and keely's booties are small enough to fit in those car seats, that's for sure!!! Let me just say we were in hysterics. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

Good times, Good times!!!

Books!!

These days I have been a reading machine. I love love love to read. And I love perusing the library and checking out all sorts of books. Recently, I read through the "Twilight" Series. Shhhhh, quit judging me.

After that, I felt I needed to read something with substance and decided on "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini. Let me just say, that book broke me and ravaged my heart at the abuses, loss and brokenness the Afghan women have to endure. I literally wept last night over this book and the issues it awoke in my heart about this particular people group.

This morning, I moved onto the next book on my reading list. Already I can barely handle it, but I know it's going to be worth the read. It's called, "Push," and is written by Sapphire. It's about an illiterate 16 year old trying to survive in modern day Harlem with a multitude of odds against her. It's been made into a movie already that has won multiple awards at this years Sundance Film Festival. Literally, up to this point, I can only read a few pages at a time. I'm not sure if my heart is not ready for another intense book or if it's just hard to read. This book is to the point, hard core, merciless, no glossing things over or making issues "pretty". If the movie is anything like the book, it's going to be heartbreaking to watch.

Maybe my next book should be more light hearted!!

must sleep soon....

have i ever mentioned that my roommate has bouts of insomnia with her lyme's disease? yep, it's true. let's just say, that she is in one of those "bouts" again. what does that mean for me? if you think it means i'm not sleeping either, than you are correct my friend. i'm irritable, emotional and i can't think straight for the life of me. plus, i just caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. not good, not good at all. i'm a disheveled mess with black circles under the eyes. it LOOKS like i haven't slept in days. oh wait, i haven't. i think last night i slept maybe 15 minutes each hour.

i am incredibly tired!

Crossroads International

This is my friend Jacki's dad. He's an AMAZING man. Most people know him as Kent, but I know him as Poppi. He said I could go with him to India or South Africa. I was thinking, maybe both.
