Big news
Regarding my career.
I am almost 100% sure I'm going to be a full time agent & work strictly on commission. This is a HUGE deal for me & will most definitely be a great challenge... given the market.
But, I think I'm ready. And, my very wise fiance just told me that you have to be afraid to fail in order to succeed.
So. There you have it.
Wish me luck.

Happy Inauguration Day
Eight years ago I was moving from Texas to DC. And, so was George W. Bush.
And now, today, as Bush goes back to Texas, I bid him farewell. Adios. Ciao. Later. Peace out, yo!
DC is swarming with people today - somewhere around 3 million. I briefly contemplated joining the festivities, live, but I am content watching the live newsfeed from myfoxdc.com.
Obama represents change for many Americans & for many different reasons. To me he represents an ordinary man who is about to embark on an extraordinary journey. It has nothing to do with his lack of experience, his race, his past or the fact that he smoked cigarettes... I find all of that to be what makes him ordinary.
So, Happy Inauguration Day! Enjoy witnessing the history our country is making today.

What did Lola do next?
While we were in Texas, J made up this game for all the kids. It's actually really funny. It's called "What did BLANK do next?" (Insert a name in the BLANK)
So, we're in the car & J will say to Thing 1. Thing 1, what did Thing 2 do next? And Thing 1 will give her best response. It's always really violent or really gross. Thus the fun! "She farted on my face!" The car explodes in giggles. J proceeds to moderate & hands out a punishment for the crime. Thing 2, "You are grounded for 5 days!" The giggling turns in to a fit of laughter.
For some reason Thing 2 gets upset like she's really punished. Then we have to remind her that it is just a game. And when she's laughing at another child for getting a punishment she finds it very exciting, but when she's the punish-ee - forget about it!
So, J asks the other children in turn, "What did Thing 2 do next?" And each time Thing 2 gets a little assy when her "punishment" is handed out.
When I moderate & ask them all what did J do next, Lavagirl freaks out when I punish HER DADDY! No one ever seems to mind when I get punished. Snort!
Thing 1 & the Boy just enjoy the game & have no problems when they get punched in the face or receive 1 year of no desserts.
So, what did Lola do next?
She fell in love with her life.
Her punishment?
Happiness.

Just another manic Monday...
Except that it's NiNi's birthday! I hope you get all the sex, ahem, camera lenses you want!
It's a little ghey. You have been warned.

Friday night Mexican night
It kinda sounds like a really bad parody of a Christmas song.
Sing it with me...
Friiiiiiidayyyyyyyyyyyyyy night, Mexicannnnnnnnnnnnn night,
Tacos are cooking & the rice.
Guacamole makes a yuuuuuuuuummy treat.
Margaritas will beaaaaaaaaaaat the heat.
Everyone come to my houuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse, oooooooooooh!
Everyone.come.to.my.house.
Yeah, that was me singing Silent Night in January.
Whatever.
I've felt like death all week & honestly, I haven't had a drink in a week. And for me, that's serious business. So, tonight we're having tacos, rice, guac, margaritas, chips, salsa & fun friends over!
Ole!

Not all hummus is created equal.
It's true.
I'm sitting here at home ill with some sort of energy sucking plague & I am dreaming of Sabra. Sabra hummus, that is. What other thing in this world is named Sabra? Hmmm, off to google.
Apparently it means something - a Jew born in Israel. Interesting.
Anyways, my boss gave me a bag of oyster crackers, 2 vitamin waters & told me to GO HOME until I'm better. (which at this rate seems like NEVER) Sigh. I'm so over this winter & catching these plagues.
In staring at my bag of oyster crackers I am longing for some yummy Sabra hummus. I have tried every hummus known to Safeway & honestly, it's the best. So, since I can't have any right now I am inviting you all to have some today for me. And enjoy it! AND it comes in a zillion different flavors - see?
Now, I have to wrap up this pointless blog & get back to work from home... because selling a house takes precedence over being sick & writing in my blog.
