I've had a lot going on latey- sorry for not being better to my LJ!  But here are some pictures to make up for it!



The new haircut...and really- what else would I be doing if I wasn't on the phone?  Really- we all know I won't blow it out and flat iron it myself.



With the girls at the Mall on Saturday- sillyness!  I was the brave one!



And the Art....  While still fresh a few months ago.

"Slow Dancing In A Burning Room"

It's not a silly little moment,
It's not the storm before the calm.
This is the deep and dying breath of
This love that we've been working on.

Can't seem to hold you like I want to
So I can feel you in my arms.
Nobody's gonna come and save you,
We pulled too many false alarms.

We're going down,
And you can see it too.
We're going down,
And you know that we're doomed.
My dear,
We're slow dancing in a burning room.

I was the one you always dreamed of,
You were the one I tried to draw.
How dare you say it's nothing to me?
Baby, you're the only light I ever saw.

I'll make the most of all the sadness,
You'll be a bitch because you can.
You try to hit me just to hurt me
So you leave me feeling dirty
Because you can't understand.

We're going down,
And you can see it too.
We're going down,
And you know that we're doomed.
My dear,
We're slow dancing in a burning room.

Go cry about it - why don't you?
Go cry about it - why don't you?
Go cry about it - why don't you?

My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room.

Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?



Sometimes words are too true....  Plus how sick is it that I could quote to you the first 3 sections of this song?

What Your Hands Say About You

You are logical, analytical, and rational. You have good verbal skills.

Idealistic and dreamy, you tend toward the impractical. You have a knack for getting yourself in sticky situations.

Brainy and intelligent, you are intellectual to the point of being incomprehensible.

Your emotions tend to be nervous and potent. Your energy - both positive and negative - deeply impacts your life.

Our client's house was on the market for 90 days with no activity, we listed it and changed the advertising and it sold in 6 days. Whoo!

So He called today and wanted to know when I would be in- Well he stopped by and dropped theses off!

Too Sweet!

I'm spending the day still redoing some of the old flyers and mailouts that this company was using before I came...and I'm not trying to say I'm doing some amazing job...really?

The past stuff looks sooo cheap and unprofessional. Who uses Word-Art on mailouts to clients? eeek.

I guess most of my thoughts are too complicated to share right now.

It's sweltering in my office currently!! I just checked the Thermostat- it's at 78 Degrees! Blah. I've got some advertising flyers that I need to put together but I can't until the photographer emails me the photos. There will always be a hold up!

I've got water aerobics after work today, and I finally found a Belly Dancing class in this area...so I'm totally "copying" Sarah and Mandy. ;) Not really...but- it looks like it would be awesome. That will start on Feb 19th.

Valentines Day is sweet, but still feeling a little depressing. Matt is spending his with a very special cutie in his life...his nephew. How cute! I think James and I were back together last year lol. We went to the movies- he took me to see "Underworld- Evolution." I kept calling it "Underground" because it made him mad. The next morning when I left I stayed in Charleston under the order of my sister that I could not come back to Columbia without her favorite Pralines. She's so spoiled! lol.


So there is the Chinese New Year Party in Hartsville/Darlington this weekend...what's that all about? Who's going?

You have had a wide range of love experiences.
And when the real thing comes along, you know it!

In relationships, you need both "me time" and "we time."
You usually find it easy to be part of a couple.

GRE  
Holy Crap! Did you know it cost $130 to take the GRE? Thats insane! Why does getting an education have to be so expensive? Is this some rich way of trying to make education exclusive to people with more money than brains? Thats sick.

I've been blogging over at Myspace. Part of me hates me for that. I'm online on AIM right now, sneaking around at work. Talk to me! lol

So looking at grad school, UT Austin is looking awesome. Although it could have something to do with somebody talking the school up so much also.
