I am currently reading The 4:8 Principle- The Secret to a Joy Filled Life by Tommy Newberry. I purchased it Saturday night, after my emotional melt down that morning. After I bought it, I was reading the back of it again and noticed in small print at the bottom: Self-Help. I instantly felt lame. Should I? It doesn't matter, I bought it, I felt it, and now I am reading it. I am retraining my thought life. Somehow I think this will help me have a better self-esteem. We shall see.

Along with my loser Self Help book, I bought a wonderful little set of things so I can learn French. It has 4 CDs, a dictionary, and a book that goes along with the audio lessons. I put the first lesson on my ipod.. Yeah, that's right. I'm in this for the long haul. If only I had the balls to wear red lipstick everyday. And smoke. Oh and we can't have alcohol in the married apartments, so there goes the whole glass-of-wine each day thing. So much for morphing into an elegant Frenchwoman. Ahh.. and I MUST shave my armpits everyday.

It's funny, this whole blogging thing. I look at other blogs and they are just filled with deep thoughts and intricate wording and people who do and say brilliantly coolish things. I am an English minor.. where are my deep thoughts? Maybe I have become numb to the deep thinking trend due to all of my Art and English classes. Because, honey, that's all there are in those. What gives. That's what I say. I just realized I called deep thinking a trend. I suppose people have been thinking deeply (and, for that matter, way over my head) for centuries. Aha! Is it possible to have a deep thought about deep thinking? I think I just did.

My little brother now has his own cell phone. He is twelve. And, might I add, one of the last fellows in his group of bro's to get one. Crazy, I know. He texts me and it is probably the cutest thing to ever make my own (less cooler) cell phone go bahling-bling-BAHLING. Apparently he has decided to make use of the texting option that allows one to have a "signature" at the end of every text message. He just sent me one that said: "Hey what up? - BJ #496" I almost laughed. 496 is his number when he races motocross. Precious.
