My ripped
As I was getting into my car today I heard an unpleasant *RIPPPPP* sound.
My pants had ripped from the very TOP downward...
I slid my hand down to see the extent of the damage.
It went down to my knee.
As I drove home I tried to twist my pants around to see the rip.
It only made things worse...
I got home, took of my pants, and this is what I saw.
Looks like I need to buy another pair of jeans...

big changes...
Today, I officially accepted a job offer from Microsoft.
Come next March, I'll be back in Seattle.
Thank you to everyone who has been in prayer for me.
I have to admit that I feel really inadequate, and therefore even more blessed.
And as much as I hate leaving my home of 23 years, I feel like God is pulling me out of Texas and out of my comfort zone.
So all you Seattle people, you have 6 months to plan my "Welcome Back" party.
And Texas, you have 3 1/2 months to stock up on tissues.
Plan accordingly. =]
sidenote: after two weeks back in Texas, I have to say I miss the sub-90 degree Seattle weather.
------------------------------------------------
Also, since I now have a full time job lined up after graduation, I figured it was time to take the plunge and get rid of that 1995 Accord.
Introducing my new 2008 Honda Accord.
Name pending.
Any suggestions?
I'm leaning towards "Lana"...
