Customer Parking Only

Last week while I was working, I got this sudden email:

____________________________________

Subject: Customer Parking

Annette I believe your gray Pontiac Grand Prix License # XXXXXX is parked in the Customer Only Parking. Please move your vehicle ASAP. Continued parking in this area can result in your vehicle being towed.

Needless to say, my first reaction was, "What? There was no new sign posted where I normally park." I let Scott know that I drive a Honda Accord.

Hiatus Over

After over a month of not blogging, I am back. Lots has happened within this 1+ month, so I will do a quick recap:

August 15-19|Summer Camp in California. I had the joy of co-leading 5 ladies who are now freshman in college. It was different being a camp counselor this year because I've never been a counselor with a group of people I didn't know. I must say, it was such a blessing to be there. It was a blessing that God allowed me the opportunity to just 'show up.' I think one of the highlights was me converting my girls into Longhorns :D The USC camp counselors were definitely not feeling that, but what can I say, "HOOK 'EM." One of my not so favoite moments: counselors managing to dunk me into the lake, but not without a fight. Don't mess with Texas. :P

August 20-present|Work. Since my promotion, I've been working my tail off. Typically (for the position I am in), you're supposed to have a little bit more time to learn and adjust to your responsibiliities, but I don't have that. I don't mind because I really enjoy what I do, but it's been tough.

Kase|We have reunited! She works less than 10 minutes from me and has a pretty decent cafeteria. I spent about two weeks just eating with her during lunch and then going to her gym in the basement. We've power walked and once, she taught me some choregraphed moves to Fergie. Let's just say, I'm not very coordinated (so if P. Diddy decides to make a 4th band, I don't think I would make it). BUT nonetheless it was so fun.

Let me take a moment to tell you why I'm such a big fan of Kase. Her personality is infectious and her patience is unmatched. And she's a great wiggler.

Acne|Because of all my travels (from Cali, two week break, Philly, two week break, Cali, and new responsibilities), my hormones have run-a-muck. My entire forehead looks like that of a high school teenager. These pimples HURT. My face is in pain. I was able to go to a dermatologist to get some medication but it makes my face smell like fart. My bathroom smells like fart and so do my towels. Good news is that the medication is working, but the dermatologist said to give it 3-4 months. That was about a month ago. 2-3 more to go.

It didn't help when this kid at church said, "Annette, WHAT HAPPENED to your forehead?" And that's when I said, "Shh, we're praying." *sigh* Kids will give it to you straight.

That's all for now folks.
