Online dating...(an abnormally long awkward pause filled with occasional eye rolling and the sound of wine being poured). Where do I even begin? Before anyone gets all - I met my boyfriend/husband/ex-wife/baby mama/4th love of my life online, hear me out. I get it, there are success stories and there's always a chance. There's also...

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!
The older I get, I find myself becoming more and more opposed to change. Is this an age thing? A mentality thing? A combo? Our lives are bubbles and we live happily inside of them fearing anything that might pop our closed-off shelter of a cocoon. I actually have a shred of empathy for old... Continue Reading →
The Club
There are moments in time that you will never forget. The older you get, your life becomes a flipbook of highlights. Certain memories stand out while others have faded away into an area our brains can no longer access...which is where most of my college memories have gone. It actually makes me crazy that I've...

Tic-Toc
It's almost 2017. Another ball will drop, champagne sales will skyrocket, and then gyms will be at maximum capacity. Have fun waiting for your typically available treadmill. This will be the last post of the year and as I look back, I'm a bit thrown by it all. A lot has happened. I think it... Continue Reading →

Bring me that Horizon
I thought long and hard about what to focus on this week. And then I thought about it some more. And then I wrote a bunch of stuff I hated. And then I reread all of the things I didn't like thinking 'it couldn't have been THAT bad'. It was. Like garbage carcass crumbles bad. And... Continue Reading →
The Unofficial Superhero
Anytime any of my girlfriends have told me they are pregnant, there's always a split second of hesitance before my reaction because two thoughts cross my mind. The first one is OH MY GOODNESS, YOU'VE DECIDED TO MAKE A TINY HUMAN AND THIS IS SO EXCITING!!!!! The second one is HOLY S#%* YOU'RE SOMEBODY'S MOM... Continue Reading →
I’m Old(er)
I find myself wishing I had the body I had 5 years ago. Then I remember at that age, I was wishing for the body 5 years before that. Sometimes I walk into rooms and forget why. I'm so stubborn I'll stay there until I figure out why and now valuable chunks of my life... Continue Reading →
