Notes from the airport…

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

So, here I am at the airport, early as per usual! I’m a TOTAL SPAZ while traveling, and I really love to arrive early for flights just in case something happens. This morning was freaking insane, despite my bags being packed and me being basically ready to go, because that’s just how it [...]

Goodbye my lovers…

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

I’m off to Illinois for 10 days of fun on the lake, eating delicious food, and spending time with Andrew’s amazing family! YAY! Oh, and not cooking or cleaning for 10 days. Pretty much the highlight.
I’ll definitely be posting some while I’m there—they do have the internet and I’m planning on having [...]

What I’ll be bringing on the plane tomorrow, besides my laptop:
NOT PICTURED: My anti-anxiety medication and extra underwear. Too much information.
What am I forgetting, folks? Any suggestions?

Whose Wal-Mart Is It? It's My Wal-Mart!

Good morning, gentle readers! I hope you had a lovely weekend! I certainly did; however, last night, my face was assaulted by a crazy case of summer acne. You see, in my hometown, summer is normally scorching hot. We’ll avoided the heat until this weekend, when it finally hit over 100 [...]

Pretty perfect…

After a lovely day with my family, Andrew and I hung out with some friends and drank wine, played Balderdash, ate delicious snacks and laughed a lot.
Such a lovely weekend…
Hope yours has been awesome, too.

Beret not included…

On Thursday, I hung out with my friend Leslie and we did some art stuff. Art and I have a very complicated relationship. You see, I love it. I like painting and being creative and the supplies and the whole thing; however, there’s one tiny issue: I’m kinda not so good at [...]

Pub Quiz!

Friday, June 26th, 2009

One activity that Andrew has gotten me really into is Pub Quiz. Pub Quiz or Trivia Night or whatever you want to call it is a huge quiz with questions ranging from science, literature and sports, to pop culture and music. It’s usually held at a bar of some sort, and people of [...]

Bet you didn't know I was a klepto

Earlier this week, LiLu Twittered that she’d forgotten her towel at the gym, and had used paper towels to dry off, reminding me of one of the most horrifying things I’ve ever done.
I used to go to the gym before work a lot. If you’ve never had the pleasure, it’s awesome because you get [...]

How to make the perfect fro-yo…

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

So, we have a bit of a frozen yogurt problem in our house. The problem being that we love it too much. Every few weeks, we say, “We’re going to swear off frozen yogurt!” But then, one of us mentions the sweet deliciousness and before we know it, Andrew is off to [...]
