When I was in high school
So there's this street in the south party of town that is known for "cruising." It's a pretty redneck thing to do, at least in our area. A few times my friends and I decided to go cruise along the strip and see what the big deal was. There are all these cars with ridiculous stereos, blackouts on the headlights, etc. The one thing we found was that it was easy to find someone to buy a car full of underage girls beer or whatever else we wanted. A lot of people pulled into this one parking lot there and compare car and truck accessories. I wonder if high school kids still do that now. It's not the kind of place I want my sweet little girl hanging out in 15 years.

Cold Case
It's one of my favorite shows. You know what really makes me mad? When the football game goes late, so 60 minutes goes late... then we watch the Amazing Race, sit through Three Rivers, and then they put on the news instead of Cold Case. What a crock.

Jonathon's Masters Degree
My husband has been thinking about going back to school for either a Masters Degree or a second degree. He has taken several continuing education classes. Since he works with technology, it is important for him to always stay current with new trends and software and things like that. We would also like for him to make a little more money and a masters seems the best way to move toward that goal. Since the economy isn't great right now, we figure it is the ideal time for him to get some school out of the way before looking for a new job.
He has looked at several area schools, as well as some online courses and degrees. We don't really have a lot of information about getting a degree online since that seems to have become more popular since we finished school. One program in particular that was brought to our attention, though, is the online MS in Information Security at Lewis University. This program "Explores the theory and practice of IT security on a global scale, the latest advances in all of the involved technologies, as well as the multi-layered issues on the legal and ethical levels facing IT security professionals."
It sounds like something right up his alley. Not only is he paranoid about security issues online and otherwise, but his background is in IT. There are about 15-20 courses he would need to take for this degree. I think our next step will be him actually calling some of these online schools and talking to staff there, and perhaps getting referrals or reading reviews of students who have gone there.
He also has a few certifications that he would like to get, and also others that need to be renewed. I am glad that he is proactive about his education and his career.

If you have wrinkles
If you are looking for a good anti wrinkle cream... Avon has an amazing new product called Anew Reversalist. I have several customers who have tried it already and love it. I also have samples available. Right now the night cream is only $27, or you can get the higher concentration serum for $39. Visit my Avon website or contact me for details!
Who wants to be a millionaire?
So I won a cruise with Avon and things are doing a lot better on that front. Although I am sure we have a lot of medical bills coming our way from this past week. And apparently I am only 64% likely to become a millionaire...

Near my house
There is a major road that is usually the most direct, but slowest, way to everywhere. There are a ton of stoplights and nothing but shopping every direction. One of those roads you steer clear of during rush hour and on Saturdays. Anyway the other day while sitting in traffic I noticed a doctor's building now offering a discount on a colon cleanse on their digital marquis. It made me laugh a little bit.
