Slow the Hell Down!!!
I drive too fast. Last weekend I was on a kid-free journey to North Carolina to visit that man of mine. Have I told you guys how amazing he is? Oh yeah, I did. Moving along… remember a few weeks ago I had some trouble with the SUV? Well, it started feeling like it was [...]

Own It and Live Honestly
“Live honestly,” is my sister’s buzz phrase. I’m stealing it for this blog. This year has challenged many things about my existence: my faith, self-worth, capability to forgive, capacity to love and ability to survive. I’m sure that my writings often appear a little schizophrenic. Well, to tell you the truth, maybe they are. I [...]

Jesus and the Tow Truck
I never call my mother on Sundays unless, by some miracle, I have managed to drag my lazy butt to church. Even though, I am by all accounts an adult and am a mother myself, I still can’t bear to hear the disappointment in her voice when she asks, “How was church this morning?” knowing [...]

Wedding Bells Are in the Air
This is your moment to breathe a sigh of relief or murmur in disappointment. I’m not getting married. However, wedding bells are sounding loud and clear all around me. Almost every conversation I’ve had today included nuptials of some sort. The morning started off with me being accused of being engaged. OK, “accused” is too [...]

From the day that puberty set in, I’ve been a bit boy crazy. Check out this actual photo of the locker I shared with my best friend Megan in high school. If you think this is bad, you should’ve seen my bedroom. I’m confessing my obsession to you after slamming one of my childhood crushes [...]

Last night I caught the last hour of the Oscars. “I would like to thank the Academy for Hugh Jackman being chosen to host this year. Next year, I would appreciate seeing him again. Maybe he could go for a little less bow-tie and a little more Wolverine. That would definitely help me to remember [...]

The Bachelor
Be warned. I am feeling a bit judgmental tonight. I’m also no expert on ANY of the subjects that I’m going to discuss in this blog so feel free to “put me in my place”. Maybe I’m angsty and looking for a fight. Maybe I have a point. You can decide for yourself. The television [...]

I Love You… BUT You’re Damaged
**thanks to the one who suggested I write this one** Do you know what I hate? I hate it when I’m dating a guy and the chick before me has completely screwed him up. I will accept the fact that I have been “said chick” at least once before, but we’re not talking about me [...]

A girlfriend of mine and I have been having a conversation for the past couple of days about dating and PDA. Her current beau that she has been seeing for about a month is completely hands-off in public claiming that he doesn’t do “public displays of affection”. When I say, “he’s hands-off”, I mean quite [...]

This is a quote from one of my favorite books of all time, Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. It got a lot of attention on a bulletin I recently posted and I couldn’t help but blog about it. “I have a history of making decisions very quickly about men. I have always fallen in [...]
