“You Look Pretty Today.”

May 5, 2008 by cajunvegan

Kenergy finds a way to say this to me each and every day that I am having a bad day. She must look at me and be able to tell that I needed to hear it. I was so happy she reminded me today that I am pretty. The last few days I have felt and undoubtedly acted like a psycho hose beast. I really do not want to go into details, but I have come to the realization that Boog and I are on separate shifts for a reason. I am going to leave it at that because I feel pretty damn ugly today and probably should not write a post about how much I want to strangle just about anybody and everybody and bury them in the desert.

On other notes:

I feel pretty today because Sistah CJ gifted me with a gift only a banned book reader could appreciate. Check out my new bracelet:

I feel pretty today because I told Devil Wears Purple how I felt about the quadruple copied email she sent me last week and her lack of direct communication with her administrative, teaching, and support staff, and she was speechless. No, she did not apologize yet, but I rendered her speechless.
I feel pretty today because I had two teachers tell me they appreciated me in front of two teachers I know talk about me behind my back.
I feel pretty today because I am pretty.

And, if that doesn’t make you feel pretty today also, I don’t know what will. Happy Monday!

I am so, so envious of your possession of that stylin’ bracelet. Very, very sweet, that.

I feel pretty because I joined ‘curves’ and was the youngest person to ever step foot in the place. AND I WORKED OUT!

and I had a facial. First time in 2 years. *it’s only my second*

YAY for feeling pretty, soooo pretty!

I’m having a crappy day today too. My queen arrived dead. Then I got stung on my hand. You’d laugh it’s so swollen. Oh, yes, I could go on and on and on….

I didn’t yell at my husband so you can’t yell at yours. OK? They were placed in our lives to challenge us. We’re growing into better people.

Tomorrow will be better - promise. How many more days?

That IS a cool bracelet! How do we book geeks go about getting ourselves one?

I have no reason to feel pretty, really, but I choose to be positive anyway. Fake it till you make it, right?

Sistah CJ rocks! Those are the coolest charms I have ever seen. Did she have to have them made or did she find them somewhere? Either way, it’s an awesome bracelet.

If I had your job I would so be in jail. In addition to lacking the chick gene, I find the entire concept of political correctness to be retarded. See? I used the word retarded. So 70’s of me.
