If I were to make a list right now of reasons my life is AWESOME I think it would be insanely long. Making the short list right now: Tonight I got to crawl into my neatly made bed, with crisp clean sheets. As soon as I did, L snuggled up to me and fell asleep. […]
Week Of Wardrobe Wednesday – Other Mirrors Edition
Yes! It’s that time of the week again! The time where I show off all the clothes I’ve been wearing this week and hope you’ll give me feedback on what I should/shouldn’t be wearing. This week I didn’t actually touch the self-timer on my camera. Instead I opted to try taking pictures of myself in […]
The Fancy Camera *UPDATED*
This weekend I took a trip down to NC to visit my college roommate, SSA Olivia Benson, and her new husband, Derek Morgan* (they’ve been married 6 months – so awesome). I had a blast. I love traveling, most especially when I can drive my car to wherever we’re going. It was especially fun because […]
Writing, Ebay
This morning I was gripped by the incredible need to write another novel. It’s been 3 months since I finished the second one and I haven’t honestly given much time to my writing since then. Which I don’t like, at all. Still, I was laying in bed, drifting in that stage before you’re awake but […]
Week of Wardrobe Wednesdays
I am just pleased as punch to introduce one of my new weekly features! This isn’t even something I can take credit for – all of that goes to Jecca – whom I have fondly nicknamed Sistahair because she’s Ms. Fiercehair’s … sister (see what I did there? I’m SO clever sometimes) and her own […]
One Year: I Stand all Amazed
Author’s Note: This is a very personal part of my journey. It is part of an important time in my life but I ask that you request permission before using it in classes. Please respect that this part of my story is deeply personal. You may be interested to read some other related posts: Six […]
On Fandom and Yogurt
So how’s about I introduce a new blog layout and then drop off the face of the blogosphere? My fellow royals are nothing if not amazingly supportive and awesome. For example, my friend John, who not only granted me permission to cite his real name on my blog – how’s that for confidence? – but […]
On Self-Imposed Allergies
I am one of the lucky people. To my knowledge, I have approximately one, maybe two, allergies: bumble and bumble color enhancing shampoo and/or conditioner. Which, allegedly, is not a cleansing shampoo and I have to use it in addition to my normal shampoo. What? No. Just no. But this morning I saw this post by […]
How I Spent my Snow Days
So unless you’ve been under a rock the past few days, you know that my part of the country was hit with a substantial amount of snow this weekend. I was one of the lucky ones who only got 24 inches in her yard. Others got more. Needless to say I haven’t left the house […]
Same day, different week
Once upon a time I dreamed of being a famous blogger. I really wanted to rise to blogging stardom, to have 100s of comments a day, and have random strangers running up to me in the mall to tell me they read my blog. There are parts of me that still desperately want this. And […]
