Though my dating days are behind me, some days, I still find myself thinking, He’s just not that into you. But I’m not thinking that about Eric; I’m thinking about my dog Indiana. I...
A year ago, if you’d asked me to list the things I am afraid of, this would have been my list: 1. Sharks. 2. Having someone break into my apartment to rape and kill me. That was it. I don’...
What I’ve been reading, what I’ve been writing, what I’ve been eating…and one more list for you today! Here’s what I’ve been wearing lately. Neon nails. After seei...
I guess I’m in a list-making kind of mood this week; now that I’ve shared what I’ve been reading and what I’ve been writing, I figured I’d share what I’ve been eat...
“Writing is hard for every last one of us — straight white men included. Coal mining is harder. Do you think miners stand around all day talking about how hard it is to mine for coal? The...
One of the things I was actually looking forward to about my surgery was the amount of time I’d get to spend reading while I recovered. I’d planned to finish my two new books but in reali...
This morning, there was a large, loud noise as the massive pile of magazines, empty JELLO containers, pill bottles, 7UP cans, and saltine cracker crumbs on my bed appeared to come to life. The pile s...
Last night, Eric and I shared a lovely candlelit…workout. While I love my yoga routine, I’ve been missing other workouts — namely spin classes and classes at DEFINE – a lot. I...
Even though my verb for this year was push, I’ve realized that I have a little bit of a problem with that when it comes to weekends. I have so many goals for this year — writing more, wri...
A couple weekends ago, Eric and I went shopping for new bedroom furniture and I was amazed at how easy it was. It doesn’t feel like that long ago that I was in tears after every trip to IKEA. I...
I went to the doctor this week for a pelvic ultrasound (have you had one? they aren’t fun!) so we could see how my fallopian tube is doing. I found out I have a hydrosalpinx and had my IUD remo...
Wednesday night, Eric and I kicked off our marriage planning by planning for the end of our marriage: we made our wills. I know estate planning isn’t as sexy as wedding planning, but I’ll...
My yoga class last night was fantastic. As I was packing up my things, as I was driving home, as I was chatting with Eric, I just kept thinking one thing: Wow. What a great workout. And that made me ...
I really love make-up and I love trying new brands and products. Every time I hear that a product is a “must-have” or a “cult favorite” or especially the ubiquitous “looks great on everyone,” I’m the...
Not a whole lot has changed in my life since I got engaged and became a “bride to be.” (Yes, I’m using finger quotes on a lot of wedding-related terms until I feel more comfortable ...
I was preparing dinner on my lunch break today when I realized, Holy shit. This is the most convenient meal ever. Because it was. I was making Real Simple’s Smoky Beef and Bean Chili (made with...
My weekend was amazingly relaxing. I had Thursday and Friday off of work for the holiday and it couldn’t have come at a better time. I was so lazy and slept so much; it was glorious. I did re-j...
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the terms “girls” and “women” — specifically, I’ve been trying to figure out how people use these words and why. For mo...
I knew it had been a while since I had gone to a yoga class but I didn’t realize it had been a full month until I was limping out of class — wondering WTF? — and I checked my calend...
I’m pretty happy to see the start of a new month! Starting in mid-February, I feel like my life has been moving way too fast for my taste and I’ve been looking forward to getting a chance...
Eric and I have known for a long time that we were going to get married some day. In fact, it was never really a question for us. So we didn’t have much need for a traditional proposal. I mean&...
It’s been about a month since my friend break-up, and I am happy to say I’m doing really well. Talking about it helped a lot; just acknowledging that it happened and allowing myself to fe...
After I wrote about splitting the cost of birth control with your male partner last week, a few people asked me to write about splitting the cost of everything else. It’s a post that I’ve...
Last night, I was watching the season premier of “Mad Men,” which is one of my favorite shows. One of the things that I’ve always liked about this show is that they don’t shy ...
Eric and I made plans to see “The Hunger Games” on Thursday night/Friday morning. I’ve never done a midnight showing before, but if there was ever a movie to do it for, this was it ...
I realized a few weeks ago that my birth control prescription was about to run out. This is actually the first time I’ve needed a refill in 2012 (I went back on Seasonale after having my IUD re...
While the SXSW sessions I attended were great, there was more to SXSW than just that. I want to wrap up my posts about SX by telling you how delicious and fun it was. The Parties Because I was trying...
Since moving into the role of community manager at my job last year, I’ve been acting as an advocate for our users and a representative of the brand and serving as the first point of contact wh...
When I got the opportunity a few weeks ago to host a brunch courtesy of Dannon and Activia (Activiaaaaa!) Harvest Picks, I jumped at it. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to invite my new friend...
