A Beautiful Day

I love listening to KSBJ... especially in the afternoon when Liz Jordan is dj'ing. If you've never listed to her... she sounds like she is always smiling when she talks. You don't meet many people who radiate joy, even when you can't see their face! That's something special. Also, from looking at her blog, I have been able to gather that she lives in my neighborhood (I think!). I just think that's pretty cool.

Anyways- this morning I had the chance to sleep in and it was FABULOUS! After I got up and took my time getting dressed I headed out for a while. I went for a 1:30 appointment to get my eyebrows waxed with my favorite new lady - Lily from Montrose Nails. This sweet little Vietnamese woman is so chatty and literally pays the most attention to detail of anyone I've ever been to. This is my second time to go to her, and I've been really happy both times. And for $8 dollars, you can't beat it! (That's just a little free advertising for Ms. Lily if anyone lives near here and is looking for a good place to go!)

Afterwards I went by Walgreens and dropped off my perscription for ACCUTANE! (Finally!!) It's been a long process getting here, but the doctor finally agreed to put me on accutane and I've waited patiently for two months making all the "preparations" I needed to to be able to take the medicine. (For those not aware, if women get pregnant on accutane the babies are born with SERIOUS defects... so they require any girl taking the medicine to be on birth control for at least a month ahead of time.) I am really looking forward to seeing how the medicine works - I'll keep you posted!

Finally - I went to Bookstop and bought two books I've been hearing about: "My Utmost for His Highest" and "Having a Mary heart in a Martha World"... then took my new books out to the park by Buffalo Bayou and read a while (I also listened to Amos Lee on my ipod :). I will admit I fell asleep for a LITTLE while. It was wonderful.

Now I'm back in the apartment relaxing and trying NOT to think about all the cleaning that needs to get done. Haha... I needed a relaxing day!

Just thought I'd share... hope your day was just as relaxing :)
