One and Lonely

Some days I just feel blah! And this is the perfect song to describe my feelings. Superchic[k] sings it. I used to think they were so lame, but I really love them now. They're amazing people. Anyway...God bless!

One and Lonely Lyrics

It's not like they meant to hurt me
Watchin TV, checkin Britney, televised, my guys
Checkin out her thighs and I roll my eyes and sigh
It's not like I even need to be competing with unreality TV, fantasy
Not for a smart girl like me
Some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution

CHORUS:
Sometimes I have good days and it's good to be me
Sometimes I get the best of insecurity
And it's quite alright to be the one and only
But today I feel like the one and lonely

It's not that I don't know beauty is only skin deep
Just the skin I'm in, not the girl within
But one imperfection takes away my grin
Not that I think I'm ugly but
Acne throws me for a backslide
I won't go outside
Makeup can't hide how I feel inside
Some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution

CHORUS
(Oh, the one and lonely)

We all have bad hair days
Those nothing good about me days
Just keep moving on cuz they'll be gone
And we'll still be here going on
We have our yesterdays
No lunch cuz the jeans don't fit days
Just keep moving on cuz they'll be gone
And we'll still be here going on

CHORUS:

Sometimes I have bad days and it's hard to be me
Sometimes I get brought down by insecurity
And I have my days where I'm the one and lonely
But today I choose to be the one and only
Yea, I'm the one and only

It's beginning to look NOT like Christmas

My favorite Christmas memory was and always will be my first REAL white Christmas. I don't mean Texas white, I mean Colorado white. I remember running to my elementary school to sled down this BIG hill and have snow ball fights with my brother. Here in southern Louisiana, I could still wear a sleeveless shirt and be just fine. I really want it to be just a tad, like 40 degrees, cooler. But I'll take what I can get.

I got a tree. Considering the size of my home(i've come to terms with it being a home), it's a 36" Fiber optic one. But it's cute and it's perfect in its own little way. Aurora likes to look at it, that is, until she sees there are boxes wrapped in paper very nearby. She wants that paper, let me tell you.

Well I have work today. I'll write again later.

Angels on Earth

So, Wednesday was a fairly ordinary day. Lots of work to do. But after work, I had grocery shopping, never an easy feat. Well, Alley called to tell me he'd be pretty late so I should just go ahead and go WITH Aurora, BY MYSELF! AHH, scary. I have to keep her entertained somehow. Usually with one hand pushing the basket and the other shaking a rattle or something. Well, after her dropping everything NUMEROUS times, it was finally time to leave.

At the check out, I stood behind a couple with a little 2 month old baby who were on WIC or Red Cross or something because the cashier was checking all their stuff that was on a list. Fairly common these days in this area. So I sat there, a little impatient, but not showing it on the outside. Anyway, there was this guy behind me who said a few things to me and asked about Aurora, but no big deal. Well, the lady finished checking me out, and it totalled to $118 and some change. Well, that's double what I usually spend, so I was a little worried, but i was prepared to pay. The guy behind me says "Let me bless you" and pays for it all. Yup, pays. I almost cried right there. I don't think he caught the extent of my appreciation because i was so in shock, or maybe that gave it away. but it was the greatest act of love i've seen in a long time. I feel so blessed.

I've told some people this, but Deana said I should blog about it. i woulda made it more interesting, but the truth is the truth, plus I'm busy at work. ;-) But I gotta go. Love you all!
