Okay, so I have only really watched the Bachelor a few times, but this is what I have taken from it...
1. There is a lot, lot, lot of sleeping around
2. There is a lot of kissing
3. There is gorgeous man constantly saying, "you're amazing"
4. Contestants are slowly eliminated and it's done very gently
5. When you are booted off the show, you have the chance to get your own show, "the Bachelorette"
Getting your bachelor's degree online at the age of 47 involves:
1. Absolutely not an ounce of sleep, because you're up all night trying to figure out the difference between a WIKI page and a WIMBA room
2. Your family telling you to kiss off because they're tired of eating frozen fish sticks with moldy tartar sauce
3. There is a very flirtatious yet inappropriate man with no teeth telling you that he's amazed you found your way to the campus bookstore at your age
4. Your professor sends you a 40 page syllabus and tells you to memorize it in 24 hours or you're out of the program
5. If you flunk out of the course, you still get the bill and the chance to become a divorcee when your husband finds out
The reason I started this blog...
Two years ago, I was flying on a plane to take my son out to visit college prospects. I'm a nervous flyer, so I started reading an article in a magazine about Cameron Diaz. Now, I had never really thought about her other than being in movies, some good, some not so good. But, after reading the article, I was inspired! She does a lot of fun things! It basically said that she never says no to any kind of fun. I wondered what would happen if I started being more like that. I started incorporating the phrase "What would Cameron do?" into my daily life and I have to say, it has made a huge difference. So this blog is basically about me trying to be a more positive person and do things that initially inspire fear, but make my life more exciting! Kind of like the movie "Yes, Man"...but more realistic since I am somebody's mother and I have to plow through those piles of laundry and unload the dishwasher occasionally...Hope you enjoy my journey!
