Today marks three years. – Three years since my world changed – Three years since I decided to move to Vegas – Three years since I found my Back Alley Friend – Three years since I found the friends who understood what I needed vs. what they needed – Three years since I rebuilt my […]
Against my better judgement, I’ ve been thinking about “what if” scenarios and Bucket Lists. Isn’t it funny where life takes us? One decision, one word, one step, one car ride changes your whole course; for better or worse. The events (because they’re not always your choices) change everything. They can take you from being […]
Wow, I am on quite the roll these past months breaking my own rules left and right. Monday night led to another broken rule: Never leave your drink unattended. Freshmen year of college I had my very own roofie experience complete with a nice mixture of Opium and some other scary drugs. After that, I […]
Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me I don’t mind not being the smartest person in the room. Actually, I enjoy it. I get to learn new things, be challenged and have something/someone to look up to. However, I do hate one thing. I hate being made the fool. I should […]
While I have a lot of “rules”, they’re mostly old ones. My rules are timeless and have, for the most part, stayed status quo. I don’t make or add rules lightly. In fact, the last time I added a rule to my repertoire was almost three years ago; when I moved to Vegas. This weekend, […]

I wrote about pet peeves here and here, but both times I forgot my #1 Pet Peeve. Yes, I am flabbergasted as well. So what is my biggest pet peeve you ask? Well, drum roll please… NOT WALKING THE WALK aka breaking promises. Don’t: – say you’re going to send an email in 30 minutes if you […]
This is how I feel about the last 30 days. I hope the craptastic bullshit that I’ve been dealing with ends soon. Personally, I thought I had fairly decent karma, but apparently I pissed the hell out of someone somewhere.
Growing up, swimming shaped my whole life. When you spend 40+ hours per week at the pool, how can it not? I don’t regret the long hours nor the wrinkled fingers nor swimming til I puked blood. And, I certainly don’t regret the lessons I learned and have carried with me into everything I do. My […]
