1.  My camera needs to go with me everywhere so that I don't have to keep littering my blog with horrible quality iPhone pictures.  I know you are all nodding along with me right now.

6.  The puffy face WILL go away.

7.  Just because my dad is annoyed with me that I didn't want to pick up my nephew from his karate and baseball practices (even though I can hardly muster the energy to feed myself) doesn't mean I should feel bad.

8.  No matter how much I may want to, it is not appropriate to wear sweat pants and/or fleece pants and/or yoga pants to work.  Slippers are fair game though.
