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

She’s here
My best friend had her very precious little girl this week.
Aubrie Kendall is her sweet little name. She was 7 lbs, 7 ounces and 20 inches long.
I went to meet her the day after she was born and oh my was she ever a little peanut. I mean, I know babies are little but I [...]

Let’s talk about my nasty face
Seriously you guys. Or shall I say gals?
I have acne. Full blown. Zits all over my face.
Even when I was a teenager, I never really went through a horribly broken out face stage. Obviously this is payback. And it is a mother effing bitch. (Excuse me).
I can seriously understand why acne gives people a complex. [...]

The new schtick
Just about everywhere we go someone asks how it’s going.
“How is the new job? Do you love it?”
And I find, this time around, it’s so much harder to just say yes, even though I do. I’m more cautious this time. I’m more guarded. I’m more reluctant to tell the whole world that I think this [...]

Baby Shower
Isn’t she stunning? Yep, she is. Which is exactly the kind of mama she’s going to be.
Today – her baby shower – made the anticipation worse. I absolutely cannot wait for her little girl to be here.

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 [...]

Silver lining
Two of my friends (and former newspaper co-workers) lost there jobs this week. And gosh, I wish I could make them know that they are going to be OK.
One friend in particular is having a really hard time. In fact, she’s nearly identically going through the same motions I did in the days that followed [...]

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 [...]

Birthday week
I celebrated my 22nd birthday just a little more than one month after Jeff and I met.
When I got home from my night shift at the paper he handed me a huge moving size box. It was light, but filled. With Chex Mix. Every kind I could think of.
I thought it was absolutely cute that [...]
