This sounds conceited, but I'm really not trying to be.

A couple days ago I had a conversation with someone about makeup. He asked why I (and the female population, in general) bother with it. He said he didn't see how it was necessary and that it just seemed like a waste of time and money to him.

I didn't even have to think about my answer: "I feel naked without it."

It's true. I don't know why, but if I don't wear makeup I feel like I'm not really ready for the day. If I go somewhere without it I feel like I'm telling the people around me that they weren't worth the effort for me to look presentable that day. Granted, I don't feel that way about a girl if I see her without makeup. It doesn't bother me whether or not a person is as concerned with their appearance as I am with my own.

And it's not even really a vanity thing for me, either. I equate putting on makeup with putting on shoes. It's not really all that necessary, but it's just another part of getting dressed and getting out the door.

So anyways, I was thinking about all of that and then it led me to another thought: why don't I treat my quiet times with GOD the same way? Why isn't it as difficult for me to walk out the door in the morning without having been in the Word as it is for me to leave my room without eyeliner? Why don't I feel naked when I'm not covering myself with Christ?

Anyways, these are my thoughts today...

That's not my underwear.

Sometimes I feel a lot like Rain Man. You have to watch this clip to understand. Warning: there's a lot of offensive language in this clip. Tom Cruise has a bad mouth on him...

Anyways, I have this thing where I tend to say the same thing over and over regardless of what the people around me are saying to me. For some reason my mind gets stuck on a thought and I say what I'm thinking over and over and over and over and over again. This leads me to not really hear what other people are saying to me. Thankfully it only happens when I'm either really super excited about something or really super upset about something.

What the Water Gave Me

This song came out a week ago and I'm kind of in love with it. Flo's done it again.
