I have learned that Claire’s, the popular mall accessory store, has converted almost all their store-brand earrings to be known as “Sensitive Solutions”. I have personally tested several pair over the past few weeks and I am happy to say this means NICKEL FREE!!!

Yes, I have a little bit of an international theme going on, although the hearts with the arrows through them have proven an early favorite.
This also means I had to purchase several pairs to test. But they are so cute, that I don’t mind. I didn’t realize how much I really missed wearing earrings. I gave up years ago trying to find nickel-free earrings, especially affordable ones. I need to see if Claire’s sister store Icing has sensitive earrings as well.
I also learned that Noah was 600 years old when he built The Ark! What the f***?!
The church I sometimes hang out at because my friend goes there and I like the people and the activities but I don’t call it my church because I don’t really believe in the same beliefs has started reading a book called “The Story”. It is like a Cliff Notes version of the Bible. They are basing all their services and lessons off of it for the next several months.
I am reading it because all my knowledge of The Bible comes from watching the movie The Ten Commandments on Easter. I am an entertainment/pop culture/trivia buff. Since The Bible fits into all those categories (in my mind, anyway), I need to expand my general knowledge of it.
And so far, I am not impressed. I just started, but so far it is the most unrealistic book I have ever read in my life. I have trouble understanding how millions of people across the planet base their entire belief system off of this book. I respect that, but I don’t get it. (I enjoyed Twilight a lot more!)
Maybe I just haven’t gotten to the good part yet?
