I don't Get IT!

You're probably going to think I'm crazy by blogging about this pesky non-issue, but I don't get why I have not been summoned for jury duty in almost 5 years.

I was summoned (who says that) while I was in nursing school (exempt), and haven't heard a peep from the City of Houston since. Voter's registration... current. Driver's License... current.

It's SO weird. My roommate has had to report twice in the last couple years... even my brother went last week. Have I been excluded from civil/criminal justice indefinitely??

My chances of ever reenacting this scene are becoming less and less likely...

Savior I come, Quiet my Soul...

Crazy week.

Lord, calm this anxious heart!

Psalm 62:5-8
5My soul, wait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.
6He only is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
7On God my salvation and my glory rest;
The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.
8Trust in Him at all times, O people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.

Don't let the Bedbugs bite...

By the looks of this article, it seems that bedbugs are making a comeback. This is a subject very near and dear to my heart thanks to the first mattress I encountered at Texas A&M's Mosher Hall.

Since the beginning of my freshman fall semester, I had seen little bugs around my dorm bed/room (not a lot, just a few) which I thought were coming in through the window... I lived on the ground level. Finally, after finding numerous chewed holes in my sheets near the foot of my bed, I found (insert dry heave here) the little guys' source. Thankfully, they were not bedbugs, and I never, to my knowledge, had been bitten by anything. It took me, however, til Thanksgiving break week to figure out where they were coming from.

sick me out...

And how convenient is it that I stumbled across this article two days before I travel to Nashville??... where I will be sleeping in a hotel bed. Expect pictures of me inspecting my bed before slumber.

Sleep with one eye open. (I initially typed "I" instead of "eye" BTW) genius.

Best of...

It was my twin

We have an abundance of new nurses at work, all in orientation phase. I keep hearing about this new nurse whom everyone is mistaking for me. My coworkers have been telling me stories about how they will walk up to her and attempt to continue conversations originally started with me, only to have an awkwardly abrupt end to the conversation... 


After hearing so much about this mystery twin, I finally met her on Tuesday, and they were so right. We part our hair on the same side, are about the same height, same color hair... it's crazy... 
Ladies and gentlemen, I have found my twin. I'm trying to figure out how to take a picture without freaking her out... stay tuned...
