twenty-one.

it's official. i'm legal! my mom and i celebrated the big day by heading to cin-city, natch. we shopped and laughed and jammed out to lots of 20 on 20 radio because who doesn't love 3oh!3 and ke$ha? i love that my mom is always down for a road trip and lots of shopping. she always finds the best stuff and never gets worn out....and if she does, she just downs a diet coke and she's good to go. such a fun trip. 21 is gonna be a good year.

a must read.

seriously, this book has changed my life. i've struggled with my weight and an eating disorder for the past few years and this book really helped me to feel at peace with my body. read it. it's powerful. even oprah read it. can't compete with that now can ya?

thanks doc.

today is mothers day so i thought i'd give a much deserved shout out to my fave mom, georgia. here's a few things i adore about her... 1. she's always there for me. no matter what i'm going through, she's there....the good and the bad.

2. she's always up for a good time. a shopping trip? disneyland? florida? she's down.

3. she always thinks of others' needs before her own. when we were growing up, my mom would always be making a family dinner or watching other people's kids. my mom is the perfect example of giving service.

4. she always looks good. georgia has the whitest teeth and the tannest skin. and she's skinny. what a babe. do i raid her closet frequently? yes, yes i do.

5. she tells the best stories. whenever we go on road trips, we always ask to hear stories about when we were little and my mom always tells the best ones. we were cute kids.

6. homegirl can cook. my grandma is such a good cook and my mom def got that gene. she makes the best dinners and desserts.

7. she's got the best laugh around. you've prob heard it if you live anywhere in the us. i got the laugh gene fa sho.

8. she's real. if i'm doing something dumb, she says so. if i'm doing something great, she compliments me. i like that she can say what she thinks.

9. she's one of my best friends. i love hanging out with her and talking to her about my day.

10. i really did hit the jackpot with georgia. i don't think anyone else could handle me as well as she does. she's the best mom and i really do love and appreciate all she has does. HAPPY M-DAY MRS. D =]

lemon juice.

k, so this one time at camp i put toothpaste on brynn's face while she was sleeping and when she woke up in the middle of the night she said, "my eyes are burning!" it was so funny and we still say that to this day even when are eyes are completely fine. well saturday at work some guy asked me to put lots of lemons in his sweet tea, and as i was putting his lemons in the cup, one squirted me right in the eye. i wanted to scream a stream of profanities, but instead i just cried and ran to the bathroom to rinse out my bloodshot eye. i def could've used one of those eye cleaning stations they always have in science classrooms. lemon juice to the eye was more painful than having my tonsils out and my mom says having your tonsils out is worse than giving birth so lemon juice in the eye is in fact more painful than giving birth. having a baby will be a piece of cake now.
