I was reading a talk thread titled “Roman Polanski- Leave him alone or bring him back to serve his time?” on yelp.com this evening. While I assume most of you are familiar with Roman Polanski and the controversy surrounding him, I’ll give a few sentence summary. Polanski, who was in his mid 40s, drugged and [...]

I rue the day when the most exciting event on my calendar is a Pampered Chef party or when my idea of a wild night out is painting pottery with the girls and a wild night in is trying out a new recipe. With that said, I’ve been waxing poetic lately about my new vacuum. [...]

I am happy to say that the days of juggling dates have come to an end. Remember how I said in an earlier blog that I had hit it off with the friends of R, a guy I had been dating? Well, I apparently hit it off really well, since I am now dating one of R’s [...]

A letter to the asshat who broke into my car last night… Dear Car Prowler, While it is not likely, I hope that the money from my cheap, Kenwood CD player is used to feed your family. Studies show that kids who eat a proper breakfast and eat nutritious meals are more likely to stay in [...]

In my opinion, one of the worst aspects of a break up is losing a friend. Relationships are a lot of work. It takes time to cultivate a trusting, loving relationship. So when it’s time for a relationship to end, for whatever the reason, it feels like that labor was in vain. Not only have [...]

My friend, Esther, my dog, Hercules, and I decided to go camping for the Labor Day weekend. We lasted 17 hours. Esther and I hadn’t gone camping together since we were in eighth grade and each of us had gone a handful of times since, but only in large groups. Apparently, not much has changed [...]
Coffee and Brussel Sprouts

I got home from my Labor Day weekend mini-camping trip last night. I have discovered that sleeping on the ground will take it out of you even if you do nothing but sit by a campfire, talk about boys and eat cheetos. So, I arrived at my house exhausted. I had snacked throughout the day [...]
