In 2006 through till September 2007, I felt loneliness that I hadn’t felt since my freshman year in college. A loneliness, that despite my loving relationship with now fiance, encompassed me to the core. Lacking people to share the ups and downs and tribulations of a post-graduate life. Then I started blogging. Then I startedRead More
Blogher Day 1
Alternatively titled…why I hate flying longer than an hour and a half. You know it’s going to be an interesting travel day when you get to the airport two and a half hours early (unintentionally) and find out your flight is 40 minutes delayed. Furthermore, you know that traveling is not going to be funRead More
Do they have a class for that?
The vision of what I thought I was going to be by the time I turned 26 came crumbling down this morning in the parking lot of my part time job at 8:30am. I had spent two hours running around the gym trying to find ribbon to tie balloons for our open house today. ItRead More
Facts of Life
Or the one where bad things happen to good people. This, my friends, has been…dare I say it, the worst week ever. I won’t go so far to say that it could get worse, because we already said that and it did. Saturday, I was blessed and showered with love at my bridal shower inRead More
Not a Morning Person
I’ve never been a morning person. Ever. My mother used to fight with me to get me out of bed, and I was consistently *nearly* late for school. Fast forward to college – if I didn’t have my hour to get ready (check email, shower, check facebook, get dressed, dry hair, etc….) I would skip.Read More
A Date to Remember…
Fiancé and I are infamous for being the type of couple who says: “What do you wanna do?” “I dunno. What do you want to do?” “I dunno…” etc…etc… So it was pretty awesome when our Valentines Day plans fell into place quite flawlessly. Tonight we’re going to see Ben Folds and Jason Mraz atRead More
Book Review: “The Man of My Dreams” by Curtis Sittenfeld
“Being raised in an unstable household makes you understand that the world doesn’t exist to accommodate you, which, in Hannah’s observation, is something a lot of people struggle to understand well into adulthood. It makes you realize how quickly a situation can shift, how danger really is everywhere. But crises, when they occur, do notRead More
Race Report – Turkey Trot 5k
So y’all know I ran the turkey trot on Thursday – my chip time was 32:10 – about a 10:20 mile. I was 870th out of 1760 runners, and 238/420ish in my age bracket. Not too shabby considering I’ve ran once since the Hartford Marathon and haven’t been going to the gym as regularly asRead More

BOOK REVIEW: Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner
Stayed up till 12:30 finishing this book. Loved every minute of it. But the ending? Shocked the crap out of me.
