oooh i love my kids at work. i have a burn on my wrist/arm from the oven. it hurts. whenever i get an 'owie' my kids feel like they need to poke it. they dont seem to understand that it HURTS when they poke and TOUCH MY OWIE. but then they will kiss it better when i say ow. and i laugh. they are cute. we have a new boy that is allergic to wheat, dairy, and soy. yikes! that is EVERYTHING! i reeeeeeally hope none of my children have allergies like that

smiiile

my work just put cameras up all over the place. it makes me nervous!

its not like im doing anything wrong but just knowing that my boss could be watching me from her office..... yikes

Michael Rosenbaum.
or baumdotcom i guess.. haha



WOW. i always thought he was cute on smallville (lex) but he looks even hotter with hair.

another shooting?

ANOTHER shooting at southcenter mall today!!?! i almost went shopping today too.

one dead, one injured...


the last one was march 12.






UPDATE[10 minutes later]: kendra told me there was a shooting there YESTERDAY too. but they didnt go into lockdown. they probably got the gunman right away and no one was hurt. but jeeeeze 2 shootings in 2 days? 3 in less than a year? what's going on southcenter?!?!?

my love/hate relationship with accutane

HATE: the crazy side effects- dry skin, chapped lips, "allergic" to sun, extreme heat, and cold. thinning eyebrows(i breakout in an ugly rash type thing)... my monthly routine (more about that later) brittle breaking nails, dry skin and chapped lips (that deserves to be listed twice. most people are on accutane for 5-6 months. i've been on it for 11 1/2 months. WOWWWW. i want to be done





LOVE: lack of acne.... nuff said ya'll. i've fought with it since like 7th grade and this actually works!! i actually go to work without makeup every day. and i wouldnt be way embarassed if my friends or a cute guy sees be w/o makeup. even if i had to take this pill forever i would (until i was ready to have a baby) and supposidly once i finally get off the accutane, my acne will be GOOOOONE and wont come back. ooh happy day






every month-
-drive to hospital to see dr pepper (thats my doctors name)
-pee in a cup (pregnancy test)
-sit in waiting room, then see dr for like 30 seconds
-go home and log on to the ipledge program
-enter my two forms of birth control (abstinence doesnt count)
-take the little quiz thing to make sure i know about the drug and whats going on i guess....
-take prescription to pharmacy
pick up within 7 days of seeing doctor

thats just every month, it's not hard. as long as i get my prescription in to the ppharmacy a day or 2 after i see the doctor. one time i forgot and didnt get it back on time. i had to make another appt with my doctor to get a new prescription. i could have gotten pregnant in those 7 days i guess!?

at the beginning of this whole thing, i had to read (skim) this big inromative book with chapters and everything. then i had to sign like 3 contracts saying i wont give blood or get pregnant. then i had to wait a month for my birth control pills to start working before i starting taking accutane. this drug is SERIOUS!!! hahaha. it sounds scary right?? but i wish i could have taken it a loooone time ago. like... before highschool.


it seems like the hate would over weigh the love..... but really it doesnt at all.

NKOTB

What have you done?

primary songs are good

I love to see the temple.
I'm going there someday
To feel the Holy Spirit,
To listen and to pray.


For the temple is a house of God,
A place of love and beauty.
I'll prepare myself while I am young;
This is my sacred duty.


I love to see the temple.
I'll go inside someday.
I'll cov'nant with my Father;
I'll promise to obey.


For the temple is a holy place
Where we are sealed together.
As a child of God,
I've learned this truth;
A fam'ly is forever.
