Wednesday

I love "What I'm Loving Wednesday". In the past, I've participated in "So-What Wednesday" but I keep coming back to the feeling that saying SO WHAT is defeatist, defensive and negative.
"So what if I didn't do my laundry? I was busy! So what if I never remember my bosses wife's name? I'm too important for that! So what if I still suck my thumb? It's my life and I DO WHAT I WANT." --No one. These are made up and are not my personal issues.
It gives me a somehow acceptable platform to complain and to stand up for bad habits/behavior. I'd rather try to focus on something more positive...Complaining is one of my many talents, but I probably shouldn't give myself additional opportunities. Especially if I want my friends to keep hanging out with me :)



I love happy hour with friends. Last night we went to Woodlands Tavern for a few drinks and appetizers...I've been out of the loop for the past couple weeks with Vacation Week and the follow-up Bad-Attitude Week and really needed the girl time! We sat on the patio and the weather was perfect. Plus, I biked there, which made me feel healthy and environmental.



I love this blog: Spilled Milk and Other Atrocities. She's a great story-teller and writer. She lays open her life without being pretentious or over the top. She's not a joke, she's not a character and I appreciate her words. Her topics are diverse enough that her thoughts don't become stale, but they remain consistent. She's witty and honest and because she's a few years older than I am, I find myself hoping to gain some wisdom from her experiences. She's both realistic and hopeful.







Lastly, I love pizza. Good thing too, since I've been forced to eat it nearly every meal for the past three days. On Sunday, we celebrated Jake's niece's 13th birthday...due to a few MINOR communication errors, we ended up with six, 16 inch pizzas for 8 people. We took home two full boxes of consolidated pizza leftovers. I can pretend to be sad, but I'm not. Pizza is delicious. Pizza and I will be together, forever and always.
