Make-up, Sailors and Running

I'm going to politely decline to post my pet peeves.  I am 100% sure that I would offend someone.  The truth is, I have a lot of pet peeves, but I tolerate them just to make life easier.

So, next on the list is a picture that is over 10 years old of me.  That would make me 21.  I don't think I have any digital pictures from when I was 21, so here are two scanned ones.  In the first one I was probably four years old, with my first powder compact.  Clearly I couldn't help myself from frequent touch-ups:


Here's another one, just because I know you'll get a laugh.  Robin and I used to love to dress up in Dad's old sailor uniforms.  I was probably about six because Robin looks about three:

Finally...and this one's the best...Here I am winning a race at a Hondo track meet.  My favorite memory of running at Hondo meets is this one: After a meet, I was watching the video of me running the 400m dash that Mom and Dad had taken.  Throughout the whole race, my Mom is saying, "Buster, I don't think she's gonna win.  RUN AMY!  She's not gonna catch her.  AMY!  RUN!!  I don't know if she's gonna win..." to which my Dad replied, "Janice she knows what she's doing.  She tells us all the time she knows everything."  I won.

#8: What I'm Craving

I'm craving a lot, to be honest.  Some Mexican food, some new shoes, some of those Pillsbury Sweet Moments Brownie Bites...but I think what I'm craving the most right now is a visit with my sister.  She's finally pregnant and I really wish I could be closer to her during this amazing time.  It's just not the same over Skype.  So ahead of food and shoes, I'm craving some sister time.
