guts

Have you seen Beezus and Ramona? There's one part where Ramona is upset and she announces that she's going to say a bad word. She squishes up here face and finally shouts "GUTS!" And that, my friends, is how I feel today.

And now that that's out of the way, here is a list of things that could have gone worse today. (Because my Arby's cup gave me a pep talk and told me to look at the glass as half full.)

- I could have been eaten by a Panda bear.

- I could have sat on a cactus.

- I could have not had a great lunch with Nichelle.

- Buzz Lightyear could have dumped me. 

- I could have not found out that I get to meet my bloggy bff Shaylee Ann.

- I could have had terrible cramps instead of just mediocre montly yuckiness

- I could have not gotten a pretty blue Kitchenaid from my parents as a late birthday present.

- I could have had a bowling ball fall off the top of a flag pole on my head.

- My car could have exploded instead of the transmission just going out.

- I could have had to walk to work instead of carpooling with my friend, Jessie.

- I could have been eaten alive by the garden snake that lives by our dumpster.

- I could have lost all my teeth.

Also, GUTS.

I feel better.
