i have a post… it’s transparent, a little raw, bathed in prayer, i think it’s fairly well written… i think other people would benefit from knowing someone else goes through the same stuff.

i am too chicken to click publish.

i couldn’t resist the phrase on this chicken little poster…

“when it comes to saving the world it helps to be a little chicken.”

[sigh] when, do you suppose my inner hero will emerge? blogging is not for sissies. if you disagree, you better check – you might not be doing it right.

[cluck, cluck]

cam and i had the following conversation on the ride back from school the other day…

cam: “i had to go to the nurse today.”

me: “oh, really? how come?”

cam: “i cut my finger.”

me: “how did you do that?”

cam: (preoccupied) “i’m not sure.”

(short pause)

cam: (a little perplexed) “she said when i got home i should take a shower.”

me: (thinking that was a strange prescription for a cut on the finger) “is that what she said you should do for your finger or did she think you were stinky?”

cam: (as if he had spent a better part of the afternoon contemplating the same question.) “yeah – - you know…. i really don’t know. i took a shower yesterday.”

(silence)

that’s how many blog posts i have in my drafts.  c3 was awesome.  unleashed was amazing.  i have stuff swirling around in my head and my heart that i haven’t figured out how to put out there.  right now it’s a 20 post book.  no one reads those.

what i’m doing/thinking today…

• cleaning up – man, i create a lot of messes around here
• catching up – ummmm yeah.  3 podcasts behind… [yikes]
• can’t continue the “up” theme i just started, darn it.  sooooo….
• need to touch base with my team in a more tangible way… brain storming
• great to meet bloggers face to face at unleashed. wish i had gone to the blogging breakout, though.  got to talk to brad and got to say hi to tony morgan.  sometimes it’s hard being a girl in a man’s world.  there’s always that weird, don’t do anything they might misinterpret, thing going on.  not that there was… but, you know.  it’s super important to be careful, being human and all.  occasionally, unintentionally, i’m not.  i’m a people person – it’s very frustrating sometimes.
• celebrated daylight savings time by buying a new pair of running shoes.  been eating good and exercising for a week now.  jeans are a little looser today.
• cam and ernie ran with me yesterday after my beloved tweets talked me down from eating bad food.  thanks, guys.  yet another invaluable use for twitter.
• i love twitter.
• sooooo glad so many of our team got to go to unleashed.  great times… great memories.

thank you for stopping by to read.  ya’ll rock.

one of my most amazing talents is fixing one typo by creating a new one that slips under the radar. though i’m certain no one around the office rembers any of them, i’m certain a guest speaker or two may.

so, this week, i have taken my talent to a hole notha’ level. i printed out the bulletins for lori last week and noticed that one of the text boxes was too small which, of course cut off the end of the sentence. so, i fixed it thusly…

if you can’t love ‘em in… lug ‘em in. [[cheeeeeze & crackers]]
