Best Friends Forever
“Friends are the family you make for yourself.” – Unknown If Megan had been born a man, my boyfriend would be in big trouble. In fact, if we were lesbians, I’d have it made. She has helped me be my best, been a victim of my worst and still calls me her best friend. Everyone [...]

Diary of a Prom Queen Reject
Next weekend is my ten year high school reunion. I will not be in attendance. I have spent more time in Western North Carolina this year than I have in ten years collectively, and have no desire to make the dreaded trip down I-40 for the third time in a month. Besides, most of the [...]

Limited Sight Distance
Today has been a rough day. Actually, if I were really honest, I’d admit that the past few days have just been sucky, both professionally and personally.

Instant Gratification Girl
Yep. That’s me. I don’t wait around on much, but today I find myself waiting… waiting… waiting… 3 hours and 46 minutes to go. Recently, I had to replace my digital camera. (I’m sure you’re surprised.) My friends and I were headed to Florida and that is the sort of adventure that requires photographic evidence. [...]

Don’t Date The Mommy!!!
Not too long ago I almost spat in the face of an anorexic, blonde wench that lived next door to me. I don’t remember what exactly she said that nearly sent my hand flying at her face, but it was something to the effect of, “I hope you find someone that will marry you, since [...]

Catching Flies With Honey
There’s an old saying “You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.” I’m not sure if that’s true or not in the literal sense, seeing as how I used vinegar once to trap a whole mess of fruit flies, but that is neither here nor there. The little quip is often stated in reference [...]
