Every year on my birthday I get a special delivery… a birthday card from a dead guy. Seriously. So far, the cards have always been funny. This year’s said, “You’re officially closer to 30 than 20.” It was one of our inside jokes. Part of me is glad he had the insight to do this. […]
Today was filled with unexpected excitement. Part of me is trying really hard to not count my chickens before they “officially” hatch. The other part is realizing that the creation of a “When I was 26” list will be needed. If this chicken hatches, I will have completed the three “realistic” items on my “When I was 25” list. To […]
I’m currently cranky from having a terrible, stupid cough for almost two weeks. Of course, it also came right when I decided to go on vacation, so I didn’t get to do everything I was looking forward to. Anyway, in “honor” of it, below are ten pet peeves and/or things I hate. People who don’t […]
Memories are a funny thing. Sometimes, you fight to hold onto them. And sometimes, you fight to let them go. I’m not sure which scenario is harder to accomplish. For a long time, I was so scared of losing certain memories that I clung on with everything I had. I was so scared of what […]
I wish it was this easy to turn the frogs into princes, but alas… at least the chase is fun. Whatever “prince” you’re chasing, never give up. Ever. Whether it’s a boy (or girl), a job, a promotion, faster times, a World Championship, etc., it’s out there waiting for you… just keep chasing and kissing. […]

On a whim, I flew to the opposite side of the United States to remember childhood dreams. I could have gone to California or Mexico, but noooo; I always like taking things to the extreme. Besides the water color and diving, by favorite part about the Bahamas and more specifically, Scotland Key, is my brightly […]
Burn out sucks. And wow, am I burned out. The worst part? The trickle down effect is in full force… from work, to sex, to designing artwork for the new place to blog post ideas… BLAH. BLAH. BLAH.
As of late, thoughts of passion and happiness have been at the forefront of my mind. Two years ago, I made myself a promise: My happiness is the only thing that matters. And, no matter what it costs or what lengths I have to go to, I will always be happy. Thus far, I’ve stayed 100% […]
Lately, I haven’t been 100% satisfied with my post quality. I think it’s because my left brain is working on over drive looking for that silver bullet. I’m not talking about “the big idea” and I know I’ll never find the silver bullet, but I feel like there’s something right in front of my face […]
