Odds and ends
This past weekend, Wil and I visited Sewanee Seminary in Tennessee. It was so beautiful and peaceful and we’ve decided that if we have our choice of schools, we will be going there. On sunday, we went to Chatanooga. It was a very cool town with anything we could need on the weekends. As I was walking down the street, it got chilly so I put on my coat that Wil gave me for my birthday. My new coat is Mountain Hardware brand, bright green and a little fuzzy, almost muppet like and I had a red shirt on so I looked holiday happy and then I had a black skirt on from church. I also put on some white sunglasses that I got for a $1 at a thrift store. As I was putting on all this stuff, we passed this "harley davidson" chick who was laughing hysterically. Her and her man were not talking before she started laughing. As she passes me laughing, I think, "She’s not laughing at me is she?" and I turn around and sure enough, she is pointing at me and still laughing. I was dumb founded and a little hurt. Who does this? I usually don’t care a whole lot about what other people think but when they are pointing and laughing, I can’t help but notice. It made me want to turn around and say, "Hey you, Biker Babe, bring it with your tappered jeans, black shirt, and cigeratte encrusted teeth.." I finally let it go one block later but it reminded me that people actually ARE that shallow.
Well, besides that and the 5 hour drive back at 8pm until 1am with me having to go to work the next day, it was an awesome trip.
I turn 27 tomorrow and I must say, it feels like a big birthday for me. 26 was nothin, I barely flinched but 27 just sounds so much more mature and older. My mom was concieving my brother at this age (ewww) and it isn’t far from 30.
I just want to go shopping, figure out how to choose a concealer, and eat fried food which I can’t because I gave it up for lent. I am looking forward to my new year and plan to be better then ever….green muppet jacket and all.

Girl, you go with your bad self and your Muppet jacket! And Happy Early Birthday!!! I think 27 is going to be a good year. I’m looking forward to it, and I think it’ll be good for you, too. P.S. Can I see a picture of that jacket? I think I’m gonna love it.
