My faux pas

I've stumbled (embarrassingly) onto a couple of questions you're apparently not supposed to ask other people (women):

1. How much does your hair sylist charge for a cut and color?

2. What's the monthly charge for the gym you go to?

Oops.

Change

by: Tracy Chapman


If you knew that you would die today
If you saw the face of God and Love
Would you change?
Would you change?
If you knew that love can break your heart
When you're down so low you cannot fall
Would you change?
Would you change?

How bad, how good does it need to get?
How many losses, how much regret?
What chain reaction would cause an effect?
Makes you turn around
Makes you try to explain
Makes you forgive and forget
Makes you change?
Makes you change?

If you knew that you would be alone
Knowing right, being wrong
Would you change?
Would you change?
If you knew that you would find a truth
That brings a pain that can't be soothed
Would you change?
Would you change?

How bad, how good does it need to get?
How many losses, how much regret?
What chain reaction would cause an effect?
Makes you turn around
Makes you try to explain
Makes you forgive and forget
Makes you change?
Makes you change?

Are you so upright you can't be bent?
If it comes to blows
Are you so sure you won't be crawling?
If not for the good, why risk falling?
Why risk falling?

If everything you think you know
Makes your life unbearable
Would you change?
Would you change?
If you'd broken every rule and vow
And hard times come to bring you down
Would you change?
Would you change?

If you knew that you would die today
If you saw the face of God and Love
Would you change?
Would you change?

Love to shop

I've been thinking about posting for a while but felt like I haven't had much to say. . .I still don't, but I decided to post anyway. :o)

Here are a few photos of purchases from a recent shopping trip - from H&M:

Michael and I are going into the city again on Saturday - I'm getting really excited. I think this time we're going to see the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Empire State Building, Central Park, etc. I love living so close!

I'm sure I'll have things to share about our weekend. Stay tuned. . .

NYC

A few weeks ago Rachel took Michael and me into the city. We drove into New Jersey and took a ferry over. We had a great time. In fact, we're going to go again in a few weeks!
