I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this over the past three months but I fucking love my weekends. Especially three day long ones. Seriously, I will never take weekends for granted again. Pro...
I cannot tell you how happy I am that it is Friday, for many reasons. So, HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! This week actually hasn’t been that bad. It’s gone quickly, I’ve been busy but not stresse...
“You look so relaxed.” I was sitting in the passenger seat of Morgan’s car as we went to dinner the other night at our favorite thai restaurant, the Buddha Cafe. Morgan and I used t...
I come from a long line of gardeners. My grandmother could revive the deadest of plants by just looking at it. My mom has a green thumb that produced hundreds of zucchinis, tomatoes and cucumbers tha...
Insomnia. What an ugly little bitch of a friend it can be. I have had insomnia since I was 21. That is NINE YEARS of not getting a good nights sleep. Nine years of being constantly tired. My insomnia...
Today I’m participating in Wine and Love, where we review our week and say what we loved and what caused us to reach for our wine glasses. If you’d like to join us, you can link up through Suki, of S...
Whenever I meet a blogger in person, the first thing that gets acknowledged is just how short I am. Apparently the Internet makes me appear taller. Warning: Objects on Internet appear larger than in ...
I’m sure you have heard of Couch to 5k. It’s a program to help you go from not running at all to running a 5k. I don’t know many details but it involves a combination of running and...
So remember how I mentioned on Monday that I was going to be running the Bolder Boulder? My very first race that is only three weeks away? And it’s a 10k? I registered for it yesterday. There...
This past Friday I turned thirty. As in, I’m no longer a twenty-something. I’m no longer a twenty-something blogger. Did you know that I was like member 43? True story. I really am old! E...
When I was growing up, playtime involved my brother and I being shoved out the door and told to go play outside. We’d spend hours in the woods, making forts and getting dirty. We didn’t w...
When I like someone my senses seem to go into overdrive; smells are stronger, there’s more beauty in everyday life and music seems to have more meaning than before. I’m sure this isn̵...
I had forgotten just how wonderful having weekends off were. I also forgot how quickly they fly by! It’s Sunday night and I just had a fabulous weekend, filled with good food, good music, lots ...
It’s Easter weekend, a fact I keep forgetting when I try to invite people over for dinner/brunch/other activity that is not Easter related. I easily can blame this on the fact that I do not cel...
You know all those freak outs I’ve been having? Oh, yes, you know the ones. It seems all I’ve been doing lately is freaking out. Well…I’m letting them go. Sometimes I have a h...
Over the past couple weeks my nomadic urges were coming on strong. There were a couple days where I was ready to pack everything up into my little Rav-4 and just go. Some of the time I had no destina...
So I’ve survived two weeks at my new job and I couldn’t be happier. I know my last post was all about how not happy I was but then 70+ degree weather happened and I started getting in a g...
I have seriously fallen off the blogging wagon. I’m not just talking about this week or this month. I’m talking about the past YEAR. I constantly struggle with trying to write something...
It is Sunday night after a nice, long, very lazy four day weekend. I have watched movies, curled up on a blanket under my sofa; I’ve fielded text messages from former coworkers telling me how j...
I have been meaning to blog nearly every day but life and my creativity being poured elsewhere have deterred me. I still have to blog about my detox but today, I thought I’d share a little DIY ...
Back in December, while sitting at home in my parents house, I made the vow that I would find a new job by February 1st. I was having a good month at work and had an even better month in January but ...

A little before 2012 started, I joined a group of bloggers in tackling 12 Changes, 12 Months: small, manageable goals that we tackle one month at a time. But because I’m apparently an over-achi...
“Happiness is a risk. If you’re not a little scared, then you’re not doing it right.”-Sarah Addison, The Peach Keeper Two years ago this past weekend I packed up my bags and d...
So I guess the Universe saw my post the other day and was all “Oh yeah? You want a curveball? Well I’ll give you one–no, make that a few–and you won’t ever see it coming...
Yesterday I was standing in a construction site inhaling paint dust and covered in construction gunk providing a free service through my job. It might have been the influence of the paint fumes, but ...
Every week my friend Adriana and I have this tradition of cooking dinner together over a bottle of wine and some good conversation, no matter the weather. It’s definitely a highlight of my week...
First, I drop the new blog on you. And then I remind everyone that Valentine’s Day is coming up (and yes, I’m still single. Just keeping with tradition y’all). Valentine’s Day...
