The Morning After

It’s rare that I take my 30 year-old bones out to a night club and party like it’s 1999. And I think this picture (courtesy of Caitlin) is explanation enough. Saturday night I went to a fancy-schmancy club called Buttah Butter with Jen, Caitlin, and company. Prior to going out, Maggie helped us all get […]

Catching Up With The Neighbors

This cat lives in my neighborhood. I’ve been coveting him for months. I really wish I could take him home with me. Alas, I have to settle for petting him every now and then. My love for cats began when I was a little girl and to this day, I can’t pass by a kitty […]

Creature Of Habit

I’m not the biggest fan of change. In fact, change and I are mortal enemies. This makes me a creature of habit. I wake up, go to work, exercise, come home, put on PJs, eat dinner, go to bed, wake up and repeat. There is nothing inherently wrong with being a routined person; in fact, […]

Remember a few weeks ago, when I blogged about my neck issues? Maybe this lovely X-ray will refresh your memory. The comments on that post left me feeling hopeful. It seems that losing spinal curvature is much more common than I realized. And I was comforted to hear that several readers had had successful treatment and were […]

I also surprised my sweetheart with a box of truffles from French Broad Chocolates. My mother sent me a box of vegan truffles for my birthday and my love affair with French Broad […]

Embarrassed smile

This week I learned a few things about myself and difficult choices. 1. I hate difficult choices. 2. Difficult choices completely overwhelm me. 3. When faced with stressful choices, my capabilities become very limited. I’ve been eating chocolate, drinking wine, wearing pajamas, sleeping, watching Desperate Housewives, and crying much more than I’d like to admit. […]

Between Two Evils

Winking smile

I’ve had a horrible, no good, very bad week. Like the kind of week where you wish you’d wake up and realize it was all just a terrible dream. Of course, I can’t say exactly what has happened because nothing it final quite yet. I can say that I’m faced with making a very difficult […]

Super Bowl, Super Fun

I don’t pretend to understand or enjoy football. So when it comes time for the Super Bowl, I’m not usually blocking off my Sunday unless a good friend is having a party. I do understand and enjoy parties! More importantly, bloggers understand and enjoy parties. And ain’t no party like a blogger party, at least […]
