New year's resolution

Yesterday I posted this really negative post about how my wedding is off and then abruptly deleted it. So there you have it, the wedding is postponed indefinitely. Happy new year. My resolution is to not get married.

Too much fun

David is home! We went to a fabulous party at Leah's house. Everyone had a little too much fun, if you know what I mean. I am finished with school, and it's wonderful. Rocky created a Christmas miracle today and opened some presents while I was asleep, all by himself. This prompted me to buy him a "super-tough" toy that ended up being a piece.

Everything I need to know about saving the world I learned from Buffy

So, lately I've been doing A LOT of school work. We are learning about leadership and social change paired with ethics and law. My parents also gave me an elliptical machine for Christmas. I've been working out in our garage and watching an episode of Buffy every day. I just realized something, Buffy might be where I get this whole powerful woman, fight evil, save the world complex. I know it's risky to put this on the Internet for everyone to see, but it's true. Just look at all this:

Higher calling and self-sacrifice: She is chosen, she doesn't really want to be, but she has to.
Morality: She fights evil, and evil exists
Sense of humor: you have to laugh while saving the world from the apocalypse.
Feminist power: She's a cute blond girl that kicks big bad butt
Resilience: She keeps getting beat up, but she keeps doing it anyway.
Delegation and human resources: Where would Buffy be without her gang?
Her emotions giver her power.
She saved the world a lot, she puts other people's needs ahead of her own
Courage is not the absence of fear, it is doing the right thing in the face of fear (remember when she had to kill Angel, or when she had to jump off that tower to save Dawn? sob, tear)
Victory is complicated- just when you think you've figured it all out and solved every problem your best friend becomes a scary, deadly witch, someone turns into a giant snake, or your friends brings you back from the dead against your will.

Basically, Buffy is awesome. I think we should incorporate her into our leadership class. They said they couldn't find any good examples of girls in leadership anyway :)
