    Ok, seriously, this has got to be my favorite picture right now.
    It's so adorable, and also thought provoking.
    Think about it now, how many times are we disappointed about
    the fact that we aren't like someone else, or have different abilities and skills as someone else? (like computer hacking skills, numchuck skills, bowstaff skills, cage fighting skills....sorry, I had to!)
    We gobble up celebrity magazines with headlines promising to make us over like the stars, hoping to prey on our insecurities, and assuming we even want to look like the stars.
    Granted, many are beautiful, but I know many people in my life that are equally, if not more beautiful then anyone on those magazine covers.
    Why can't we ever just be happy with where we're at?
    We're always reaching for something different then what we have, or who we are. God has made each and every one of us exactly the way he meant to and he doesn't make mistakes.
    I think we need to celebrate who we are, the way we are, and quit complaining about our hair color (I know, I know, ironic coming from the queen of hair colors), our eye color, or how big or slim our ankles might be. Seriously. Ok. I'm done my rant now, moving on.
    So I've decided to take little mini vacation. (And the angels sing the hallelujah chorus) And I've noticed that the majority of the people that I tell this to tell me that it's about freakin' time and that I was starting to look really worn out and dragged down and blah blah blah. Now, not that I don't appreciate the concern and all that, but wow, you'd think if I was really looking that bad people would have told me before I came to the sad realization myself. But whatever, it's just as well knowing my stubborness I would've brushed off the warnings and tried to prove that I was fine and in fact, could do even more then I was b/c what the hell do these people know??? So, thank you all for your concern and in April I will be taking a set of 4 days off which will give me about 12 days off, which I will be taking a relaxing trip to the coast and visiting some friends and relatives. I'M SO EXCITED!

      Hey Tennille. I didn't think you looked worn out, etc. In fact, the few times I have seen you (not often enough!), I thought you looked great! But a holiday is always in order, no matter what. So go, have a great time!

      I don't know what you're talking about, I have sweet numchuck skills and all those celebrity shots are of my body, they just photoshopped the female celebrity heads on over mine. I know, how rude hey? I keep asking them to stop but they just don't listen. Also I don't think you look worn out all the time, just some times. Mainly right when you are done work. Also I really want to come with you. Its so not fair. Maybe If I keep working on him he will cave.

      Oh he'll cave my friend...he'll cave. (Just don't tell him I said that b/c then he'll take it as a challenge and get all stubborn about it)
