Honestly, I’ve been getting kinda worn out on blogging. Maybe it’s just a phase in my life, because I’ve been busy juggling work, 3 freelance projects and preparing for Scotland, all whilst trying to be a wife.
In today’s culture, there are so many trends that come and go…I wonder if blogging is just one of them.
What do you think?
Blogging:
–Here to stay or…
–Will eventually fall off the radar?
Have a nice weekend.
I am at work waiting for Chris to be finished…so I played around with iSight (my iMac’s built in camera) and some post it notes.
For some reason, I felt inspired to write this question…
So…?
Today, we had “Staff Development Day” for support services (communication, IT & facilities are under that umbrella). I’m sure we could have sat around watching videos on how to be more effective, shared our goals & dreams with each other and prayed for the future, but we did something much more spiritual and bonding than that.
We played Laser Tag.
I have never played laser tag before, even after working with students for several years. I love guns (I did grow up in Texas), and I am slightly competitive (Ok, I’m ridiculously competitive) so once I got the lay of the 10,000 sq foot, 2 story arena – I found my focus zooming in and 20 minutes later was sweating harder than any time I’ve excersized in the last week. The 17 or so of us waited for the results. Chris came in first place (he is laser killing fool!) followed by Tony (our web director) and Shane (my laser-tag arch nemisis). I was surprised I came in 4th!
The next game was a team game and sadly, communication lost by a hair. I did kill Shane more than he killed me, so personally, my goal was satisfied. Shane & I had been trash talking back and forth the last couple of weeks so at least I can claim some sort of victory on him, even though his team won.
Tonight, Chris & I are going to Dave & Busters to celebrate with our new friends Kevin & Ann who just moved here right after we did from Illinois. Kevin is turning 27, and I’m sure we’ll be playing a bunch more games there.
So, it’s a great way to start off the weekend. Playing games. I feel like a little kid again.
Question for the weekend:
What’s one of your favorite games to play? Are you competitive?
Have a good one…
Someone stole my glasses at Mario Tricoci when I was getting my hair done last November. I’ve yet to purchase another pair, but the time has arrived.
These are the two frames I narrowed it down to – which one do you like best? I know they both look too big for my head, but that’s just the camera phone warping my face. Please also pardon the cross-eyed look in photo #1…
or
Glasses #2
I’ll probably get them on Saturday!
Thanks for your assistance…
Has anyone ever told you that you look like someone famous? The first time it happened to me, I was in a Barnes & Noble & someone said I looked like Elisabeth Shue. A couple years later, some ladies I worked with said I resembled Melissa Joan Hart. No complaints on either, as both of them are quite pretty.
Last weekend, our teaching pastor at church taught a message called “Spitting Image” and talked about a website, MyHeritage.com. On MyHeritage.com, you can upload a picture of yourself and it scans it for facial feature and gives you a few celebrities who share similar traits. I decided to go and try it for myself. Here are a few people I ended up with after submitting two photos.
Now, not only does this software match you with your gender, but it also pulls similarities from the other gender as well…I found the following matches a little disturbing:
Wow.
You should try it. It’s super quick, totally free & completely hilarious! I’d love to hear who you end up looking like. Just go to MyHeritage.com and follow the instructions!
Cheers!
