Common Cents (yes, cents, not sense)!

This morning on the way to work I heard a radio spot that said something like, “...I swear, some people have more money than they have common sense.”

I’d like to think that at this point in my life I have as much money as I have common sense. So, does that mean if I get a raise at work or finally find that sugar daddy I’ve been looking for all my life that I will have more money than I have common sense?

And, if so, is that really a bad thing?

I mean, it seems to me that there is a limit to how much common sense a person can have. And I’ll be the first to admit that I think a lot of people could still gain a lot more common sense…especially when it comes to driving…but eventually we’ll all get to that point where our common sense cup (or mug or 54oz monster mug or shot glass) is full. But based on what I see coming out of Hollywood you can never have too much money. (And hollywood never lies, right?) So, my conclusion is that at some point a good deal of people will have more money than they have common sense.

And I’m volunteering to be one of those people if applications are being accepted.

Do you agree? Or is there a flaw in my logic?

Pin It, Baby!

So, I did it. I waited, though, until after everyone and their dog had already done it but I finally caved and did it. I joined Pinterest. And now I would like to quit my job and surf the web all day looking for fun things I want to make.

But, of course, that would be counterproductive as I would then have no money to make all those fun things. So, I'll continue to:

1 - get up earlier than I feel is necessary
2 - put more makeup on than should be necessary for someone my age
3 - acheive that "natural curl" look by spending tens of dollars on goopy hair products
4 - daydream about all the wonderful things I would make if I had unlimited resources

...aaah, a girl can dream!

I mean, let's be honest.... This hair wouldn't be curly nor would I be wearing so many layers of make-up if I were a *stay-at-home crafter.

(Sidenote: Any men interested in applying for the Mr. Right position who have "unlimited resources" listed as a form of income will be immediately bumped to the front of the line!)

But moving on...
I do realize I haven't blogged in a LONG time. And seeing as how my sister threatened to stop making dinner for me I was forced to I decided to jump back on the bandwagon.

So, to touch on the most recent of many things that have happened over the last few months...

I Romped and Stomped with some coworkers 2 weekends ago in Park City. It is a benefit for Susan G. Komen for the Cure. It was an absolute blast and I definitely plan to do it again next year if you're interested in joining me!

Here are the amazing folks I romped with: And if you want to find out how you can get involved next year you can check out their website here!


So, welcome me back to the blogging world! (Thank you, it's good to be back!) I'll try not to disappear again!


*What are the job requirements to be a stay-at-home crafter? I've got my resume ready to print!
