If you only knew!


Chris makes me laugh everyday! This picture was taken on "date" night. We had a great time just walking around taking pictures of each other. This picture was taken with the timer and that is genuine laughter from both of us. Can't you tell? Not everyday is this much fun, but these are the moments that I cherish.

Want to hear something you've never heard before?

This is a great independent internet radio site that is out of Corpus Christi, Texas (my home town!). Mostly country, some other "crossover" stuff, and pop too. I love supporting local and independent music, and this is a great way to do it. Check it out...especially if you are from Texas, because these are mostly local bands that play around the state!

Runner's High

I love the way my shadow looks when I'm running with the sun at my back. The sinewy lines are fluid harmony. I look thinner, stretched like good yoga. No bumps are visible, just solid grey movement. As it pulls me forward, appearing in and out of the tree's dappled shadows, I see the gait of my father, and it makes me run a little longer. Of all his qualities, quirks, and passions, I'm glad this is one that I inherited.

Ten on Tuesday...but it's Wednesday!

This is like a myspace survey...but cooler...and shorter! Ten on Tuesday is remenicent of John Cusack's lists on High Fidelity. I love lists, and when I saw this on a friends blog I thought, "I wanna do it too!" Here it goes...

Movies that I remember fondly from my youth:

1) The Neverending Story - THe first movie I recorded on VHS to watch over and over!
2) Mary Poppins - I knew all the songs
3) Superman I and II - I waited in line to see it the second one in theaters!
4) Beetlejuice - shake shake shake Senora shake yo body line!
5) Clash of the Titans - One of the greatest movies of all time!
6) Big - Tom Hanks is the best!
7) Pinocchio - My parents say I cried at the end...because it was over!
8) The Wizaed of OZ - I knew all those songs too, and the munchkin dances!
9) Star Wars - Because I was in love with Mark Hamill!

I was wrong about Paula Abdul

Beacause of my hectic schedule, three jobs and graduate class, I only got two hours of sleep last night. I haven't gone on two hours of sleep since my early twenties, and I'm telling you it is a strange experience. It's like being on drugs I think. My heart was racing all day. I was jittery, and I was so tired I COULDN'T sleep. WEIRD! I seemed to get a second wind about 5 pm... Complete turn around... I cleaned (something I've been neglecting) , I ran 4 miles, I did lesson plans. It's surreal. Usually, 5 hours of sleep is what I get, and I am EXHAUSTED by the end of the night, sometimes falling asleep by 7pm. It was strange this morning though, and I can see where Paula Abdul and Uncle Jesse claimed sleep deprivation for their strange actions. I wish I had video of me this morning...but I don't. It was a little like this though....

Pickles, Popcorn, and Popsicles

Do you think I could create a diet with those three things? The three Ps! I wish I could lose twenty pounds eating the three Ps! I probably could if that was all I ate....hmmmmmmmm. That might get old. Maybe this will satisfy my salty/sweet tooth for now.
