A Typical Conversation

Friday is FUNDAY so I thought I'd share a typical, but fun conversation between me and my BFF Stacie:

Stacie: So I love me some Leo but what the crap is he doing with his socks pulled up like that?

Jessica: LOL! I've noticed the young teen boys are rockin' black socks pulled up like that these days. But Leo is definitely not a young teen boy nor are those black socks. You know, even though he's not on my list, I still hold a special place in my titanic loving heart for him. 

Stacie: Oh yeah definitely. Leo is the bomb diggity. :) If only he and Kate [Winslet] would realize there undying love for each other. It’ll happen when they are both like 50 or something. 

Jessica: I know, right? When they finally get married I think we should go to the wedding. Like a pilgrimage. 

Stacie: It’s a date. :)  

Happy Friday, everyone!

Patience

This week my patience has been tested numerous times and it's not just holiday related, however rude teenagers in the mall parking lot have not helped the situation. A few times I've let it get the best of me, but I've been working hard at taking a step back and figuring out how best to handle the situation instead of just being mad. Sometimes it's taking a break or saying 'no' to another activity or event. Sometimes, it's exercising. Sometimes it's just sitting on my tush and watching television. Whatever it is, it usually helps more than stewing in grumpiness. So, tonight, I will be seated on my couch, taking a break and tomorrow I'll feel better because of it.

Bathroom Hijinks

A lot of you have already heard this story, but it's too funny not to share with the world.

Yesterday at work we were having a toilet malfunction, which I forgot about. After I took care of business, I decided to try to flush it to see what would happen. It made some noise and then toilet water shot approximately four feet in the air, missing me (Thank God) and splashed on the wall. Of course, I jumped backwards going "EWWWWWWWWWW!" The bowl started to fill with water after that and I waited to see if it was going to overflow. Suddenly, with a great woosh, all the water was sucked down the plumbing and like that I unclogged the toilet. :)
