Fun on the Drive Home


I've probably mentioned that my drive to and from work has been a nightmare. 

Well...since driving to and from work for 90 days the commute has become much less intimidating. In fact...it's sort of fun.

I a saw a  pink Jeep the other afternoon. I wish I could have gotten the front. The headlights had pink eyelashes! 

This is the kind of thing that makes my drive so much more interesting.

Girl Mud Run

Guess what I did this weekend. I went to the local "Go Dirty Girl" Mud Run.

That's right! A 5K! Yep. And it's a fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Yeah, I feel good about it.

Oh, wait. I don't mean to imply that I ran! I was my daughter's cheerleader. She impresses the heck out of me.

Two years ago she and I walked for Ovarian Cancer Awareness. That one I actually completed alongside D.

Simply My Opinion

So, I read Erin's {Living in Yellow}"In My Humble Opinion" and loved it. Her post title is clever but not to be confused with my post (here) which is Simply My Opinion. {They are similar but different. I am no copycat.} [Side note: sometimes I do copy my daughter. But that is just doing something very very similarly (like buying the same boots or something), it's not actually copying.

I decided to write my own list of opinions. I'll link up too. See how that works. Erin told someone & I'm telling someone and if you tell someone it will grow geometrically. {Like that shampoo commercial where everyone tells their friends and "and so on and so on..."}
So, here goes. My list of opinions...or as I like to call them: FACTS.
1.  I have begun way too many sentences with the word "so". I think that is a grammar violation. 
2.  I'm fine with that.
3.  It is perfectly acceptable to layer a pastel pink top with a red sweatshirt jacket and again with a hot pink {fuchsia?} down filled vest. In fact, it is a fashion DO.
4.  # 3 above is true even if you have red (or strawberry blond) hair.
5.  Cats are cool. 
6.  Dogs are too.
7.  So are birds...both wild and tame.
8.  Rabbits are too cute for words. But a little scary as pets. (They growl and have teeth and act like they are going to bite.) 
9.  There is no such thing as "too much of a good thing".
10. Any amount of a bad thing is "too much of a bad thing".
11. All web applications should be intuitive. (I'm talking to you facebook. I used to understand...now I don't.)
12. TV commercials are way too loud. (Maybe that's because they know we're really going to the loo and need to hear when they are over.)
13. Scary movies and scary TV shows should not show scary commercials. I don't go see scary movies for a reason! I definitely don't want to have to see the scary commercial.
14. Sitcoms should not have laugh tracks. Really. I think we all know if it's funny or not. Please stop trying to tell us it's funny.
15. Almost every TV show goes on for at least one season too long. --Except for Frasier. Somehow that one worked.
 
Okay dokey.  Hopefully, these fun facts aren't too controversial. I'd love to know what some of your truths are. Let me know if you link up. 
Cheers,
