In honor of…

My favorite band from the nineties decided to re-unite after 6 years apart and announced it last night in Houston. I’m super excited, (found out this morning on twitter- I follow Derek Webb,) I’ve been to a bizillion concerts of theirs so you better believe I’ll be getting tickets to see them next year! [...]

It’s official. I might as well admit this here too. I have lost my wedding ring. Yep. Weeks shy of our 7th anniversary. I have to come clean, of all the grrrs. My beautiful white gold ring with it’s blingy-bling diamond is gone. It’s heartbreaking and frustrating. I’ve gone through all the emotions and feelings [...]

Friday Funnies!

Embarrassment is…
-getting all dressed up for a very rare girls night out and realizing, once there, that the sexy brown heels that perfectly matched my dress are sitting at home and I am wearing my dirty house flip-flops.
-being super excited that I have 250 listeners on blip.fm. I feel so nerdily, amazingly thrilled. [...]

of which I emotionally rant about something I’m *actually* thankful for

Summit starts his second year at Kid’s Day Out tomorrow. I find myself excited and sad at the same time. Actions and emotions that I once mocked I both do and feel. I get his blankie with his name embroidered on it nicely folded by his name embroidered stephen joseph backpack. Emotionally, I write his [...]

I used to do this segment… look at me, “segment”, or whatever, I used to do a regular posting on random things/events in my life. Enjoy:
-My super cool cordless keyboard and mouse must need batteries because it keeps skipping certain letters interchangeably so if there are tons of misspellings here, oh what the heck, it’s [...]

Conflicts of (dis)interest

I am so conflicted. Well, maybe not so much conflicted as annoyed. But not really annoyed…. oh what is the word… unsettled. I don’t freaking know what I feel, that is the point here.
My ten year reunion is this fall.
Oh yes. For those of you who really don’t know me, I hated high [...]

Friday VLOG FINALLY

Yes. I meant to talk for like, 5 or so minutes, but ended up taking for almost 15. Geez. Perhaps I was nervous, I can be a nervous talker. Whatever, you don’t have to listen to all of it. But, your only hurting yourself, I mean, I’m freaking funny! (and if nothing else, you can [...]
