funeral planning

My mom got a new job- she's a funeral planner. I guess it's kind of like being a wedding planner- only different.

the pinoy photo shoot

My brown friends (the pinoys) invited me to a photo shoot last week for diversity reasons. Check it out:

marriage advice

Marriage advice from Nanny Balling (my super sassy great grandma who I absolutely love to pieces): Don't marry people because you feel sorry for them!!

Winking at the mirror

If you've never winked at yourself in the mirror, you should. I did once and discovered something new about myself- I have a mole on my right eyelid. I had never seen it before because I generally have both of my eyes open when I look at myself. I suppose that girls who wear eye shadow may be more aware of what their eyelids look like, but I would suspect that the majority of non-eye shadow wearing people don't. Check it out.

Actually this isn't a picture of my right eyelid, but I'm not good at winking and I have to hold my eyelid down in order to see the mole. It's just too awkward for picture taking.

This is what I ate for lunch yesterday:

Molly Brown

My family got a new puppy- her name is Molly Brown (originally it was Otis, but they changed it). She's just about the cutest darn thing I've seen in my entire life, but she has really sharp puppy teeth and she likes to bite.

Stealing Cookies

The other night while I was hanging out in the break room at the jail, one of my coworkers pointed out to me that there was a loose cookie in the vending machine. She also mentioned that there had been a loose Hershey bar too, but it had somehow managed to fall and she picked it up. She recommended that, if I were to give the vending machine a big shove, I may end up just as lucky as she. Well, at first I was hesitant- I've never stolen anything from a vending machine- and the fact that I was in the jail made it seem even more daring. I decided, though, that I wasn't really stealing- obviously somebody had paid for it, or it wouldn't be dangling there waiting to fall. I gave the vending machine a big shove (actually it more like two or three- it was a really heavy vending machine) and let it fall back to the ground. Then I ate my cookie in front of a class full of inmates (I would have loved to share but that is very much against jail rules).
