I like to think of myself as someone who boldly goes forth in search of what she wants and smiles and makes friends easily. I have a feeling that the truth is closer to me being a homebody that allows herself to settle into something comfortable and safe. I think I remember being bolder, funnier, …

I had to think a bit about whether or not I wanted to tackle this topic today considering I am less than a month out of the end of a 15 month long relationship so I don’t know how objective I could be on this topic. I realized I am not objective about anything, nor …

Simple Life Philosophies
I have previously said before that I have two life philosophies. One is from George Carlin from “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure” and the other is something a Girl Scout leader taught me at camp. First: “be most excellent to each other.” Second: “leave a place better than you found it.” Be Most Excellent to …

How Does That Even Make Sense?
I promise April will not be purely about kid’s shows but I feel it is appropriate to write about kid’s shows today since the inspiration for this month’s blogs comes from a kid’s show and I am over at Tina’s house and I have maximum exposure to them right now. I need to state up …

My Trip to the Library Today.
Today was a crazy busy day and that is why I am not writing this until 8pm. I predict the next two weeks will be pretty crazy. This week I promise to get all the posts up on the normal days but I make no promises about what time I will post them. The week …

Those Certain Books
I have many, many favorite books. (I was about to go into an semi-apologetic spiel about how my use of the word favorite is incorrect there because favorite is a superlative therefore there cannot be multiples but then I went and got my learn on and found out that favorite is not superlative. I don’t …
