My rantings, musings, and the overall verbal diarrhea of optimism that leaks out of me.
Now that my husband and I have officially moved into our new home, we’re slowly but surely unpacking, cleaning, and trying to put our house together. Right now, it basically looks like a bomb has exploded, spreading our clothing, dishware, and random paintings all over our three-story townhome. It’s chaos and it’s driving me nuts.…
With just five classes to go until graduation, I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching lately. I’ve learned a ton – my head is fit to bursting. What, exactly, do I plan to do with all of this knowledge? I’m not 100% certain. I plan to write. That’s about all I have ironed out…
Last night, I was able to attend a live Q&A session with one of the most prestigious and well-known names in Hollywood: Oliver Stone. I found out about it last minute and basically clambered over myself to free up my schedule so I could attend. I skipped a kickball game, missed half of a live…
Today is the day! My piece of flash fiction, “Sticky Fingers,” was published today on Linguistic Erosion! Woohoo! That puts me at seventeen total publications. I promised myself that when I hit twenty publications – no matter how big or small they may be – I will start sending out the query letters for my…
April 13th, 2007. That’s the day that I stood before my friends and my family and committed to love, trust, and support one man for the rest of my life. I cannot believe it’s been six years. Six years of ups, six years of downs. Six years of amazing adventures, six years of lazy nights…
In an effort NOT to jinx myself, I’ve been relatively quiet on this blog about my home search. Last time I talked about a house I was interested on here, I was outbid the next day. Not that I’m superstitious or anything – I just decided to play it safe and keep the house hunt…
With the end of Spring Break and the return to school, the inevitable chain-myself-to-my-desk routine of homework has commenced. It’s time to burn the candle at both ends, balancing school and work, and hope that the creative well can stand a bit more pumping. What a lot of people do not realize, though, is that…
For those that don’t know, I work at a college in the Admissions Department. My team handles enrollment and paperwork processing from students all over the world, so it can get a little tedious/repetitive every now and then. To break the monotony, I write silly poems, limericks, and other nonsense whenever I alert the team…
It is officially Spring Break for all of us Full Sail’ers [Sailors? But we’re not on water… hmmmm] and I couldn’t be more excited. A full week of no assignments, no required reading, and no lectures. Seven whole days without homework. My eyes well with tears of joy just thinking about it. During our last…
Now that we’re officially one week away from the close on our new house, my husband and I have decided it’s probably about time we start packing up our possessions and deciding what stays and what goes. Even though we went through the “shedding” process just last August, it’s amazing how much more CRAP we’ve…
