So far in this blog, I haven’t been particularly candid as far as my life and emotions are concerned.  This is different. Going off my last blog, I’ve been in denial for a while about buying a car, saying I can move somewhere and take public transportation.  The thing is, I know I need a car.  [...]

So I took out my nose ring the other day… and I can’t get it back in.   Its been a few days, but I feel weird without it.  I hope the hole doesn’t close.  Other than that, its been a pretty normal, low-key few days.  Lately I’ve been seriously contemplating sucking up and purchasing my first car.  I’m [...]

In the past few days since I last blogged I have: – been going to bed at a semi-decent hour, so I haven’t been nearly as tired as I usually am.  Good for me, bad for keeping up with blogs.    – finished that pack of gum.  – bought all these art supplies for a mere $44. I was [...]

I’m an occassional gum chewer.  I know some people think its a horrible habit, but compared to nail biting and nervous babbling, its actually one of my better bad ones.  Usually, I’m a simple Doublemint or Winterfresh kinda girl, whatever’s closest and cheapest.  Tonight, at the grocery store gum aisle, I went back to middle school. When I [...]

I just saw a commerical for a verison of Monopoly that uses debit cards.  An eight-year demonstrated how the handheld machine worked.  When I was eight, everything I knew about plastic cards came from Home Alone 2.  You hand them to an adult, they swipe it, and everything is fine and dandy.  At least it was for Kevin McAllister.  [...]

There’s been so much going on in current events the past couple days (Spitzer resigns!  Drugs in the water!  Facebook fiasco at SXSW!), that I’m sort of convinced the world has lost its collective mind.  More evidence that the eventual apocalypse:  I’ve started drinking hot tea.  This sounds like a minor detail, but coffee has been running through my [...]

Me:  I’m cold, will you turn the heat on? Mom:  You’re cold??!  It’s forty-eight degrees in here! Me, rolling my eyes:  Ughhh… Mom:  It’s practically summer!  I thinking of turning the air conditioner on.  You’re cold?

Please let me start by saying it was very tempting to add a choice -ing word, one that occasionally follows ‘mother’, but I’m refraining.  I’m showing restraint. However, Ma Nature, you have not showed restraint.  Why does it look like this outside? I’m honestly confused, because by March 8th, typically the mid-Atlantic region of the United States is in a warmer state than [...]

Pretty self-explanatory.  Here are a couple things from around the house that pre-date me and still rock: 1. Moon boots. These bad boys are so awesome that my sister and I used to fight over them.  My mom let me use them in seventh grade (yes, seventh grade) and I still wear them.  I should probably [...]

Call me weird, but I feel kinda bad for voters in Vermont and Rhode Island.  I know they’re potato chip crumbs compared to the Pringles that are Ohio and Texas, but there has just been so much focus on those states, its like they weren’t voting too.  I know its all about the numbers, and little [...]
