Have you ever wanted to shake someone? Not a baby. WE NEVER SHAKE A BABY. But full-grown adult. Ever wanted to just grab them by the shoulders and scream, “Snap out of it!!!!!!” I had such an experience recently. It went something like this: Me: Hey! Friend in Obvious Emotional Pain: Hey. Me: Are you okay? FiOEP: No. … Continue reading »

March — In like a lion, out like a snowman
Today is March 25. It’s the second day of holy week, it’s 6 days before Easter, it’s the second week of spring – And it’s snowing. Because sure, why not? I really don’t mind the snow. In general I like it and since my car has four-wheel drive (thanks Subaru!) it’s not so bad, but … Continue reading »
Benadryl…a Haiku
Little pink round pill She says, “Take to feel better” Knocked me on my butt
New Year, New You, or, Walk of Shame
I almost don’t want to show my face. It’s so embarrassing how long I’ve left my sweet blog in neglect. Okay, not almost embarrassing, really really really really embarrassing And I’m sorry. I’ve got excuses (grad school/work/not being able to say “no”) but mostly I didn’t make time for a really important relationship, my relationship with you, my readers. … Continue reading »

Motivation Check…eh…
I lack motivation today. Seriously, I can foresee this becoming a problem. It all started when my alarm went off and I said, “hmmm….no.” We’ve kind of gone downhill from there. To show you what I mean, I’ve provided this handy chart: Nice! So that’s that. Have a lovely Thursday. You know, don’t. It’s cool.
Will you, like, shoot a field goal for me at your baseball match?
My office has a football pool. Two whole dollars to buy in. I should start with this: I don’t know that much about professional football. Now, I do understand the game, I can watch the whole thing without getting bored, and I know what’s going on and what at all the calls mean. I understand … Continue reading »
Rampant Consumerism, Or Why I Love Fall
It’s that time again. No, not fall, although it is that time too. I’m talking about Pumpkin Spice Latte Time! It’s absolutely criminal to pay $4 for a cup of coffee, but I fall in line and do it because I just can’t help myself. It’s delicious!!! As we gear up for the holidays (I … Continue reading »
I just couldn’t resist…
This marks my sweet friend Janelle’s 20th week of pregnancy. I’m excited for the little boo, and have been trying to plan the perfect shower for her. Unfortunately, she doesn’t like my idea of a Dr. Suess themed shower (but seriously, HOW CUTE WOULD THAT BE!?!?!?!!). So I’m still working on that. In the meantime, … Continue reading »
