Canceled out, Mind Refreshed, Hair Redyed...back on schedule

Sometimes work just throws a monkey wrench in what you want to accomplish in your "real life".  Consider the monkey wrench thrown today.  However, I had this feeling that the day was going to go South after I made the statement "not much footage today, we'll be sittin' pretty".
oh Rachel, how many times do we have to learn this lesson???

The drive home seemed to take forever today. Lots of left hand turns during rush hour, lots of lines, lots of everything that makes Los Angeles traffic EPIC.  As a matter of fact the only thing that was truly going in my favor was that I was heading TOWARDS my abode and AWAY from the office.

Things just had to change.

and they did.

Due to random crazy breakouts, I resigned up with Proactive because if Katy Perry can do it, so can I, plus I was desperate--this breakout was not budging.  The beautiful package was at my door, hope filled my heart.  Immediately I ripped open the container, jumped in shower to wash off my day, and washed my face with all 3 steps.  I swear I saw the zits disappear moments later, success was on its way.  Except my attention was then drawn to my hair line...my completely gray-I should have dyed it 2 weeks ago-hair line. Life had gotten in the way and vain Rachel took the back seat, while some rag-a-muffin took the wheel.  Thank goodness the box dye was already purchased.  I'm now a perfectly good redhead with Proactive masque globbed on problem areas,(per the insider tips!)  I know it sounds vain & shallow, but these 2 little things gave me hope to live another day.  Next, a big bowl of popcorn & a movie.
I tried to watch the Social Network, but the first scene made me rethink my mood and the patience I would have to have to watch a bunch of yuppie shitheads make millions and sue eachother.
Hmm, perhaps Saturday after work (yep work) I'll be more up to the insanity, plus it's a drinking day. Nah, I settled for Friday Night Lights, I'm on Season 4 and just love Tami Taylor.  She's the Mom that I would like to believe I would be if my world had swayed in another direction.

Muay Thai was put on the back burner tonight, but I'll be back with a positive attitude tomorrow.  Sometimes all you have to do is show up and it works itself out.
Sometimes, you just know yourself and you need to take a moment out for you.
The top option generally trumps the the bottom, which makes the bottom one much more meaningful when you choose it.

Well, here's to life--and Hulu--for saving Cougartown & Modern Family so I can laugh before I go to sleep.  And whaddya know, not a thought about work for 3 hours now.
how sweet it is...........
