Maybe if they wear their glass slippers...

I suck at picking out my March Madness bracket. I overthink everything, try to pick upsets, and always pick that other school in Kansas (KU) to lose in the first or second round-then I end up with a bunch of 3 or 4 seeds in my final four and I've lost the local pool by the middle of the Sweet Sixteen. I'm horrible. So this year I did two brackets. One I thought about, the other my quarter decided the outcome. And I figured that my quarter would probably end up doing a better job. And so far, both of my brackets have fared pretty well. But, it would seem that perhaps I do know a little bit more than my quarter. For if I followed its suggestions, I would be cheering on Cleveland State-all the way. Makes me feel a little bit better about myself. Just a little.

Rockin' it in Red

I know I've probably ran off all my loyal followers since I haven't updated in over a week. Don't worry though, I will get my new battery for my lap top at home hopefully tomorrow. Then watch out, it'll be crazy.

Hello?
Knock, knock
Anyone there?

Well if you are, let me know your opinion.

As of Feb. 28, 2009 I qualified as a red jacket in Mary Kay, which has great significance in our organization. So I have to make a decision as to which red jacket to order. There's only one problem. Mary Kay is introducing 3 new jackets-I'm completely in love with two of them. But I won't be able to order one until after August. August! And there's also the old one that I could get now. So I want your opinion as to what I should do. Help!


The Old Style-(that I can order now)


The "Drew (Trench)




The "Candy" (Cute little cropped, with a swing back)


The "Lauren" (The New Classic Style)

So vote, let me know what you think.

It Does a Body Good

Tonight is Wednesday. That means it's milk night. You see, at my local grocery store, you get a milk card and with each gallon (or half gallon) you purchase you receive a punch on your milk card. Then, after 12 punches, you get the next gallon (or half gallon) free. But tonight, oh special Wednesday night, you receive double punches. That means you only need to buy 6 gallons before you get a free one. And since my husband could and does go through two gallons a week-this is important stuff.

I'm a big believer in punch cards, and especially double punch nights. Nothing gets college students (or recent college grads) more excited than a double punch night. WooHoo! I think I should maybe bring punch cards into my Mary Kay business. Plus it'd just be fun to have a special Mary Kay hole puncher. Now if only I could figure out a way to make people more excited to come to my bank with a punch card! And if they're mean to me, I can take away their punches. You know, I think I'm on to something.....
