Christy's 20 Axioms

1. Boys are fun; men are “funner.”
2. MySpace is the blackhole where productivity goes to die.
3. The best wine goes smoothly with a good man.
4. Never drink alone (goldfish count as company).
5. Rain is best served wet—go outside.
6. The Universe listens (especially on full moon/ Friday 13th combos)—put it

out there. (THANKS JEANNE)
7. A good story usually starts with the paradox, “It was 4 o’clock in the morning

one night”. (good old sophomore year)
8. Water can cure almost anything, except a drowning man.
9. Live like there is a tomorrow. Take care of your body, soul, and the planet.
10. God sent brownies to test woman’s fortitude. It’s OK to be Eve.
11. A smile goes with anything--it's the perfect accessory.
12. Too many notches on a bed post might just mean it’s time to buy the cats a

new scratching post.
13. If someone tells you “it won’t hurt,” it probably will.
14. If you have to ask yourself “what if I had [insert cool/different experience]”

then you are not living properly.
15. Sometimes the best thing you can do in an argument is Shut Up.
16. Count the number of people who know you inside-and-out on your fingers. If

you get to your second hand, count yourself truly blessed.
17. A HUG is letting someone know you care—reach out and touch someone.
18. Enjoy hanging out with yourself. You are the best friend you will ever have

or your worst enemy. Take care to nourish the relationship.
19. Mirrors are not evil; it’s your vision.
20. Breathe every day and you’ll live forever.

It's Almost May

And I've just got one exam before summer! YEAH! Then 4 beautiful weeks without classes until summer session starts. For those of you who may not already be aware, I am currently in my master's program at Arizona State University. What fabulous degree would Christy be pursuing you ask? Well, I'll tell you............Public Administration. (try to contain your enthusiasm). I get to study about bureaucracies and management paradigms....thrilling stuff. But, it makes for good in-class discussion and those of you who know me best realize that to be happy, I have to "administer" (aka "boss" or "direct") people and a department.
