"Cookie Lump"

There is something magical about a man you're not dating allowing you to give him a ridiculous nickname...but there's something even more magical about the new kindred friend you found at work that helps make it stick. :)

Girly-Girl

For those who haven't had the pleasure of making my acquaintance, I must confess - I don't exactly exude femininity. I think I must have ground my lacy, pink invitation to "Girl World" into the ground with my soccer cleat when I was 10. With a laugh a little too loud and a tendency to prefer hanging out with the guys, I'm often singing the 'one of these girls is not like the other' song in my head.
It's not that I don't try, it's just that...I don't try very hard. :) Most of the time I find the make-up/hair-curling/clothes-less-than-five-years-old thing to be more effort than I can muster. And yet...sometimes the effort can be worth it... So I'm here today to inform you all that I have made a decision:

If nothing else, my push ups will be girly!

At least until I can do the real kind without dying... :)
