My Mother

I wish to dedicate this post to my wonderful mother, the Vickster. Tuesday, I was initiated into the Law Frat of Oklahoma, and my mom presented me with this lovely cake. To top it off, it happened to be HER birthday, and I ended up with the cake. My mom is truly a selfless person. I will not go into great detail, but here are some of the thoughtful things she has done for me throughout the years:

1. While living in STW, I really wanted this pair of tan heels that I left in Owasso. My mom met me halfway between STW and Owasso to give them to me.

2. Took me for Donuts after I totaled my first vehicle.

3. Drove to TU, picked up my transcript, drove it all the way to Edmond, so I could still take the Bar Exam.

4. Drove from Owasso to Tulsa in an ice storm, to take me to the doctor because I fell coming out of a bar(not my fault), and hurt my head.

Overall, my mom is nothing but positive, never acts in a selfish manner, and has always put me first. I know that all mothers do this. Even if all mothers do act this way, I think there is a point in our lives when we really start appreciating it, it comes at different times for different people.

My mom is a great person. We differ in immaterial ways. However, I am certain any charming qualities I possess came straight from her. If I ever have children, I hope I can just give them to her. I did that with my dog. =)

Neiman's- I will CUT you

OK, so I know so far my blogging skills have been pretty shoddy. I will do better, I promise. As if anyone really reads this.

So the other day I decided to get myself a new LV wallet. Well I decided it a long time ago, I was just waiting for the perfect time to spring it on my husband, Brett. Anyways, after my success on the mother truckin Bar Exam, I decided it was the perfect time. Well after about a week of NEVER being off work before 6, (the Neiman's by my apartment closes at 6), I finally had the perfect oppurtunity. I strolled into Neimans, trying to act calm and collected. Before I could make it to the LV area, I got stuck at the makeup counter. And thank Jesus that I got distracted. I genuinely needed this loot at the Lancome counter, no lie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't even wear Lancome, never have, never will- but it was calling my name. At any rate, I decide on 4 eyeshadows, mascara, and a "state of the art, can't live without it" blending brush. I won't go into detail but my the total cost was fairly modest. I pull out my trustee debit, and the snot at the counter says "Uhhhh, we do not take VISA at Neiman Marcus, only AMEX, Neimans Charge or Mastercard". WTF- no debit card! Who doesn't take VISA! So I was stuck there.At any rate- I ended up paying with a check. Which is retarded. Why would any establishment take a check over a debit card! This really pissed me off. But in the end, I am sooo thankful this happened, because if I would have stepped into the LV department first, my check would have bounced on out of the department...

Currently Reading

I enjoy reading when I have the time. I also like to purchase things. I am currently reading "Mafia Encyclopedia" (Third Edition). This jem of a book was a gift from my boss, who once asked me what my hobbies were. I blurted out "The Mafia". Not like "The Mafia" is really any kind of a hobby, like golfing or scuba-diving or church but I got nervous. I read too much into the question. I suppose I said the Mafia becuase to me "what are your hobbies?", actually means, "blurt out something totally random". At any rate, I guess he admired my interest in organized crime, because I was presented with this wonderful guide of the inner workings of the boss's, the capo's, and the consigliere's.

I like to read a few excerpts each night. The book is organized (haha organized, like organized crime) alphabetically. If you become confused during the day and can't remember whether Angelo Genna or Joe Aiella was the Chicago boss, just look up each by the first letter of their last name, and BAM. Question answered. I'm not sure why exactly I am obsessed with the idea of organized crime or the Mafia. It started many moons ago, I remember once sitting around my parents house in Owasso just really hoping someone we knew was a mobster. I casually asked my dad "Do you know anyone in the Mafia?" To which he replied "Uhh, I'm in a Union at work, I think alot of times, Mafia has to do with the Union." Hahahahaha. Clearly my dad has a regular hobby of golf, not MAFIA.

Furthermore, I have decided to learn Italian. I have the Rosetta Stone Italian. I opened it up and it confused the hell out of me. If anyone has done "the stone" let me know how it works. I will close with a great quote from Al Capone . . . "I don't even know what street Canada is on."
