I've developed a serious obsession with the Middle Ages. This goes beyond Shakespeare, which we all know holds an atrium in my heart. Maybe it's because I'm having serious Game of Thrones withdrawals or maybe it's because I'm doing whatever I can do to avoid the fact that chokers and platform shoes are trying to...

StarCrossed
As you get older, things get more complicated...and by things I mean everything. There's a huge difference between the stress of who you're going to pick to be on your red rover team and who you're going to choose to be in your wedding party. There's the crumpled five dollar bill you chase an ice... Continue Reading →
Seat Taken
There are people out there who don't like me. Crazy right? (Kidding) We all have our haters. I consider myself a fairly mature adult and there is still drama in my life and surrounding me that is comparable to kindergarten playground showdowns. Call me a fool, but I had some magical notion that people would... Continue Reading →

WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY. This does not only apply to Spider-Man. This is not only for superheroes, CEOs, politicians and the suits of Wall Street. This is for each and every one of us because power is simply the ability to do something. Power isn't exclusive or classified. Power isn't always a gavel,... Continue Reading →
Somebody I used to Know
It's always extremely humbling when something you were so sure about doesn't go according to plan. Whether it's a game, an audition or a relationship, it's never a good feeling to be wrong. It's like wearing the losing team's jersey long after the game is over. Everyone knows things didn't exactly go your way which,... Continue Reading →

For those of you who don't know me, I'm a midwestern handful, sports enthusiast, sarcasm specialist, lover of all things magical and vodka infused, book nerd and wedding connoisseur. Weddings are my jam. What started out as a business transaction has now become a very expensive party in which two people celebrate their love by... Continue Reading →
i gotta feeva!
I have now been in bed for almost 4 days straight. My immune system has officially failed me. It's either that or my body has been possessed by Zuul which I'm beginning to think is a very viable option. Somebody call the Ghosbusters. The men or the women, I don't care. Being a sick adult is... Continue Reading →
Forge On
The Oscars have come and gone and it's March. How can this be? I walked into the grocery the other day and St. Paddy's day everything is ready for purchase! I am sure that's exactly how Saint Patrick wanted to be remembered every year. He wanted the masses to drink until they couldn't speak and... Continue Reading →
Fear Factor
It was recently suggested that I'm afraid of the unknown. I scoffed and rolled my eyes which is my response to most things 'cause I'm mature like that. However, after some thinking, it turns out Miss Spontaneity has her limits. Sure, I'll buy a one way ticket and move across the country without so much... Continue Reading →
You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling
So apparently there was a march last weekend? Did you hear about it? No big deal, just 2.9 million Americans joined in the streets of over 650 cities across the country. Not to mention all of the people across the world who joined in unison from Tel Aviv to South Africa. Whether you supported it... Continue Reading →
