After a few hours of sleep, I woke up this morning with one single thought:
IT'S JEAN DAY!!
In the world of corporate america, jean days come few and far between. Apparently there is a common misconception that people who wear jeans cannot properly handle money. This year, (in place of our bonus) our bank allowed us to wear jeans on this wonderful eve of Christmas!
In an attempt to remain zealous for life at a job that has a tendency to suck the life out of my existance, I decided that not only would it be a jean day, but it would be a converse/chuck taylor kind of day!
(and that seemed to be just the motivation I needed to get myself out of bed)
Disclaimer: I honestly do have a deep respect and appreciation for those who serve and protect.
On the way to work, I decided I don't like when police officers sit on the side of the highway in anticipation of catching the speeders. Not only because I am typically one of the said speeders, but mostly because it makes me feel like they are setting me (and the rest of the morning drivers) up for failure.
I was having some Jesus time in the car on the way to work this morning and was grateful when I double checked my speed at the sight of the "sitting duck" and realized I was actually not breaking the law.
I've become addicted to this one song on this one CD that a friend from work let me borrow. I realized that I am craving God's presence and God's word to be alive inside of me.
Then suddenly, my moment of change was interrupted by a moment of panic.
I got to work and decided that it was a starbucks kind of morning. I ventured across the street and indulged in an iced grande carmel coffee. yum.
In just a few short hours, we will be at Ganda's house. I'm so excited to wake up tomorrow at Ganda's. I leave work in less than two hours (another mini-christmas present from my company). What a joyous occasion.
Here's to you, corporate america. Signing off with my jeans (and chuck taylor's) - I wish you a merry Christmas!
Forever yours,
sunshine vinson
