Read MoreOn My New, Very Excitng Purchase…
A very special package came yesterday… Never have I wanted something for so long before actually purchasing it. I’ve been wanting a DSLR for over a year and finally (finally!) it’s in my hot little hands. Mike took a look at our MacBook and my new camera and declared, “We’re yuppies. All we need isRead the whole post >>
Read MoreThe Anatomy of A Good Date.
As an old married couple*, Mike and I tend to count a Trader Joe’s trip and an Ugly Betty (What? Don’t judge.) DVD marathon as a good Friday night date. Throw in a frozen pizza, and we’re pretty much in heaven. It’s not that we don’t love trying new restaurants or getting all prettied up,Read the whole post >>
Read MoreSix Happy Things.
1. A $50 gift card to Whole Foods and a mid-day trip to Ben and Jerry’s with the office as my going away present. (Plus, the fact that I am, indeed, going away. From a cubicle. For three glorious weeks.) 2. Several design gigs – I’m learning SO much; I’m challenged and growing and tryingRead the whole post >>
Read MoreEveryone Deserves A Trader Joe's Binge.
So, my parents never acknowledged the sparkling nubbin on my nose when I saw them ALL DAY Saturday. They always told me in high school and college that if I got a belly button piercing or tattoo, college would be paid for by me alone. So I did what any reasonable person would do. IRead the whole post >>
Read MoreNow That's My Kind of Goal.
I’ve completed my first goal on my list! It all happened so quickly – I got there, signed a form, and excused myself to the bathroom. (Where I dropped my credit card in the toilet. Yeah. Good times.) I came out from the bathroom and there the piercer was, just waiting for me. “Can IRead the whole post >>
Read MoreJuly is the Funnest Month EVER!
I like to set goals. It’s part of the list thing, I think. Somehow, it is already July and I’m sort of freaking out about it. Summer needs to last as LONG as possible. To make the most out of this month – a month in which I’ll be job-free for three! entire! weeks!, moving,Read the whole post >>
Read MoreA Bit of a Bipolar Post.
I have a problem. A list problem. I have grocery lists, lists for my Etsy shop, lists of design projects, lists for work, lists for my new job, and lists for packing and moving. My constant multi-tasking has enabled me to never really focus on one thing. I work on a sewing project while MikeRead the whole post >>
Read MoreA Very Special Weekend…
This weekend, one of my best friends in the ENTIRE world – who I’ve traveled the entire world with (okay, maybe just England and Malaysia…)- is getting hitched. To an equally awesome and lovely guy. Katie, I love you…. Why didn’t anyone tell me how…double-chin-y I was?! Or…just plain crazy. It’s for the kids! IRead the whole post >>
Read MoreMy Former Lover…Er, Blog.
I used to have an old blog. It’s embarrassing, actually, how hard I tried to be funny and how often I used exclamation points. I started it in January 2004 to keep in touch with my friends while I was in Hawaii for a semester. (If nothing else, look at the blog to see howRead the whole post >>
