I am alive. Galentine's, once we got there, was a smash. Between cancelled flights, changing airports, delays and whatever else, we ended up getting to Vegas almost 6 hours after intended. All with smiles on our faces. Nothing like the first day of vacation. The trip home, however, was not as smiley. More delays and... Continue Reading →
Blood Wolf
Happy Thursday everyone! Here's a fun tip for you - don't go hiking with whitestrips in. Bad combo - unless you enjoy being miserable, which I'm learning as I get older, some people are super into. These people cannot be saved - not even by a truck bed full of puppies. On a brighter note,... Continue Reading →
Suitcases, Men & Umbrellas
In less than 24 hours, I will be in Costa Rica and I still don't have a suitcase. That just caused so much anxiety for some of you. I seem to have that effect on people. I would also like to inform you that I just had to google whether to use affect or effect... Continue Reading →
Love You, Mean It
I am currently on a plane headed to the Midwest for Ann Arbor to celebrate my aunt and uncle’s 50th wedding anniversary. Yes, that's them - how cute are they? These two humans have chosen to stay together for 5 decades. Kinda blows your mind a little bit doesn’t it? I don’t think I like... Continue Reading →
the last kiss
I had the absolute honor of standing by one of my best friends this past weekend as she said I DO to the man she met in a lazy river in Vegas. Talk about finding love in a hopeless place. The ceremony was almost as beautiful as the bride. She was a total smokeshow. It... Continue Reading →
Dog Days are Over
Yesterday was fun. I got 61 pricks on my back at the allergist. If you don't know my history with needles, here's a brief synopsis. When I was four years old, my brother tripped me and I fell and cracked my head open on a hearth just below my right brow-bone by my eye. This... Continue Reading →
Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
Another trip around the sun in the books. I'm 35 now. That happened. That number seems so old to me but I also feel so disconnected from it. I don't really associate myself with the number my birthday represents. I think I stopped counting a decade ago. It doesn't say much about who I am... Continue Reading →
Prison of Love
I recently read a book for my book club called Behind Closed Doors, which I chose and profusely apologized for afterwards, in which this (idiot) woman is basically being held prisoner by her psychopath husband. Spoiler alert, this (idiot) woman marries this man before she realizes he's a lunatic who murdered his mother and is... Continue Reading →
Since you’ve been gone
I spent most of last year dealing with a breakup. Saying that out loud is equal parts embarrassing and relieving. Embarrassing because it's like making plans with a friend a few months in advance and all of a sudden that person is like "I don't want to do THAT! I mean I do, but not... Continue Reading →
