Google

So this was a bulletin on My Space that I thought was fun, so I thought I would post the humorous results of what Google thinks I look like. Google "(Your name) looks like" and see what interesting results you get.

Amy looks like she's about two rhinestones away from a wardrobe malfunction.
Amy looks like she was hit by a train, and skipped the ER coming straight to the MTV awards.
Amy looks like a Tesco checkout girl with a drinking problem.
Amy looks like a really tall Cabbage Patch Kid who holds a little dog.
Amy looks like a bouncer at a drag bar.

What do you look like? :)

Annoyed

So there is nothing more annoying than going to replenish your makeup and you discover that they no longer carry what you have always used!!! Believe me, I have been to every Wal-Mart in the Tulsa/Sand Springs/Sapulpa vicinity, and my journeys only ended with disappointment. Now I have to start a new adventure of finding a new lipstick that is exactly the way I like it. Sigh. It took me years to find this one to begin with.

Grrr...

Young at heart

I love it when a part of my job requires me to dig out my markers and color things! It makes me feel like a kid in grade school again. Today I had to draw a grid and use different colors to indicate different things on the grid.

When I finished making the grid, I was almost tempted to just draw something on a blank sheet of flip chart paper and spend the rest of the afternoon coloring. Thought better of it when I looked down at my hand and realized I already had black marker all over it. I don't remember coloring being this messy, but it sure is fun!

Hum that tune!

Don't you hate it when you get that annoying song stuck in your head and it just keeps playing over and over in your mind? You try everything humanly possible to remove the tune from the barriers of your mind, but you just can't shake it. And, not to mention, it has to be the annoying ones...it's never any good ones that you might actually enjoying humming more than once.

I get in trouble many times at my house for singing "in the meadow we can build a snowman" because 95% of the time it's never the season of green and red jolly. I don't know why, but that song will just hit me at random moments in my everyday life...and it's always just that one phrase!! :) (Keeps me in the Christmas spirit year-round, but I'll admit, it is annoying.)

So today I have one going through my head, which isn't the annoying part...I can't remember what the name of it is!! And it doesn't really have words-just a bunch of bah dee buh dahs, so I can't even ease my tortured mind and go look the song up.

Other annoying songs to get stuck in your head:
"Blue" (the one that the entire song sings about things that are blue)
"I'm In Love With a Stripper"
"Long Neck Bottle"
"Who Let the Dogs Out"

What are annoying songs that get stuck in your head?

It's not PC to say Happy Secretary's Day, so...

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to all you hard working office fools like myself. You get paid the big bucks to take care of everyone else's crap. So today is your day to celebrate, unless of course, you work at my company, in which we are waiting until tomorrow to celebrate so our Executive Director could be here to celebrate with us.

Oh well, pizza and cake will be had by all tomorrow--woo hoo!

When it rains, it pours...

I don't normally write anything real serious or heartfelt here, but today I am making an exception because I need to give God some praise today.

Yesterday marked one of the worst days that Mike and I have had in a very long time. Anything that could go wrong, did. I was already feeling "blah" after the weekend I had, I woke up yesterday for the second day with a throbbing headache, but I was still expecting it to be a great day--one of the better ones I'd had in a while. But as the day progressed, I just kept getting more and more bad news. By 4:30 I had the "I hate today" feeling.

We are having revival services at church this week. God has some big things in store for our church and for Mike and I...otherwise Satan wouldn't feel the need to try so hard to attack us. And boy did he try to attack us yesterday-from every direction.

Last night while Mike and I were leading the church in the praise and worship portion of the service, it started sounding like a stampede of horses were running on the roof of the church...the longer it continued I realized that it was hail...very large hail (baseball size) beating down on the building. And even as we continued to press in and continue with the music, water started coming in from the roof and the floor-something had split in the guttering or the roof because it was coming in from the ceiling and the walls. Before the night was over, water had come in and flooded a good portion of the sanctuary.

As we were driving home from church, Mike and I were quiet. Then after a long silence Mike said, "I feel like Job today." Remember the story: Satan told God, if you remove the hedge of protection around your most faithful and blessed servant, Job, I can get him to curse You to Your face. So God allowed some things to happen to Job: he lost all of his family, he lost all of his cattle and animals, he lost all of his finances, he got boils on his skin-everything that could possibly happen for the worse in his life, happened. And God allowed it. But Job was faithful-and even in all that time of hurt and struggle, he continued to praise God. He never cursed Him. So I asked Mike, "Are you still praising Him?"

I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and nothing happens without purpose. So even though yesterday was a lousy day and everything seemed to go wrong in the physical sense, I know that God is taking care of Mike and me in the spiritual sense. God is faithful and He has never failed me. God has a plan for our lives. And even though we can't see the end result, I want to praise Him because I know He will come through. I do not want to put my focus on the situation, but on the revelation that God has given us. I am expecting God to do great things in our lives. And because I am expecting, I know that He will.

We were one of the more forunte ones. Mike's parents no longer have a sunroof or a back windshield. Thank God for $0 deductibles. At least we won't have to pay anything to have ours fixed. :)

Alright already...I'll give you one

But you can't make fun of me...because I'm just cool like that. :)

Bwahahaha
