My head hurts a lot. The amazing pounding above my right eye. Yeah, the same pounding I have lived with for the last 12 years. Oh the fun!

I finished my CIA book this evening. It had some great information. But I gotta say, I found the writing and story structure to be... annoying? I think that is the right word. At times, it was confusing. And I really have no idea who half the people were that the writer talked about. But like I said, there was also some great information. And I told J he should join 'the company' after he retires from the Army!

About two seconds after I finished that book, I started reading another one. She's Gonna Blow. It's all about dealing with anger, for mommies. My bible study is actually doing a book club thing for this book. We read it, than get together one night and talk about it. And since we meet in, oh, about a week and a half! I figured I needed to start it asap. Not that I need a week and a half to read a normal book... I just find that I tend to drag along when reading self help books. They are so not my thing. But I am trying, because I really think this book has great things in store for me.

And, when someone asks you why you are wearing a shirt/sticker/pin/whatever that proudly proclaims you are Irish and therefore deserve a kiss...

"Kiss me, I'm Irish!" is believed to be a reference to the Blarney stone. Kissing the Stone will give you luck, and more important, the gift of Blarney! Since most people cannot kiss the stone, kissing an Irish lad or lass is believed to be the next best thing... Or, it could be a drunk guy wanted a kiss from a pretty girl and that was the first line he could think of!!
