My dog literally could not wag his tail for about 20 of the last 24 hours.
And I don’t know if you know, but I’m kind of obsessed with my dog. I’d do anything for his cute face. So when something is not right in his world it pretty much turns into a nervous break down [...]

Nothing like a broken spirit

Official
So, I’ve finally started telling people, which I guess means I should just say it outloud – I start my new job on Monday!
Weeeeee! On Monday morning, I report to work. Meaning, I will get dressed, and put on make up, and pack a lunch and leave the house to do an actual job that [...]

Before I met you…
I never…
…owned a baby dog.
…rocked out at a Widespread Panic, Bob Dylan or a Waterfest show.
…danced. Like for real, not slow-style.
…ate a radish.
…played poker or cribbage.
…drank entire pots of coffee, grocery shopped for one meal at a time, drank (that much) beer that actually tasted good.
…slept with my back to the door, which is a [...]

Driving stick
I vividly remember the day I learned to drive a stick shift car.
With my best friend in tow (who did not know a thing about driving stick) as my co-pilot, we headed out to “practice” in our suburban town. We must have rolled down that hill on Green Road backwards about 10 times before finally [...]

Don’t tell Grandma
Jeff’s mom spoils me rotten. And she did it again for my birthday.
With a new Coach purse. (She promises she got a rock star deal so that makes me feel a little less guilty about her getting me another beautiful bag.)
She knew when she walked in on Saturday that she was going to be “in [...]

Note to self
Dear young woman (I assume) who searched “everything is not equal in my job” and got to this blog (or, advice I’d give my 10-year-old self as an almost-26-year-old):
Stand up for yourself. Call your human resources person, make a stink. Because you know what I’ve learned, sometimes you actually get more with vinegar than you [...]

The last 48 hours
I’ve wished all the appropriate dads in my life a happy day.
I sang “Short Dick Man” out loud. Including the stuttery part. You know, “don’t, don’t, don’t…”
A close friend of ours became a father.
I went to sleep before the sunset after spending the day at the beach.
I got the first sunburn of the year. And [...]

Five pounds
So I think it’s official, I’ve gained five pounds.
Because I’m the most active I’ve been in ages (walking, hiking, biking), I’m going to go ahead and blame this on going back on an antidepressant a few months ago. I sort of knew it was inevitable that I was going to gain a few pounds, I [...]

We’ve had good luck with LG phones so I hope this precious lady treats us right
We rounded out our Memorial Day weekend with a very special (and unplanned and unexpected) purchase.
Thursday this pretty peach will be mine ours. Minus the bottom drawer, we don’t have room for that part. (Or the extra $200.)
Our current dryer, which is part of a stackable set (that sucks), has been on its last [...]

Some things don’t change
I’ve been craving work for almost two months now. And now I’ve got it. I’m up to my ears in stories (yay!) and up to my scalp in website content to create and what did I do yesterday, I procrastinated ALL DAY LONG.
I went to the mall, shopped for Mother’s Day (with no luck), met [...]
