it’s all greek to me
My boss and his wife are Greek…like full-on, 100%. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before in talking about how amazing is that Greek salad his mother-in-law makes. If you don’t recall I crave that salad in a serious way. Like … Continue reading →
changing
Resolutions? Well, I don’t really think so. Change in store for 2011? Why yes, I think that’s a good idea. Numero uno on my listo is certainly to work on marketing for the business. I’ve been very, very negligent of … Continue reading →
surprising seconds
When I first met Dave it was a day after Mike had fucked up and the date had been…well, underwhelming. His sense of humor seemed dry. I didn’t quite get him. And so I just wrote it off as another … Continue reading →
purifying
I’ve spent a lot of time thinking, talking and writing about de-cluttering, purging and organizing – from my apartment to my Google Reader things are being changed, simplified, directed a little more. This morning it was brought to my attention … Continue reading →
afternoon release
My c-level boss’ out of office response says the following: I am currently out of the office until January 3thd. REALLLLLLYYY!?!?! I’ll stop. He’s generally a pretty smart guy. Lunch didn’t happen as planned…meaning I didn’t have my French onion soup … Continue reading →
listing it
So far this morning I’ve… Organized, decluttered and purged items from my Google Reader Obsessed on how to handle a sticky situation at work Eaten a delicious pickle with a side of ham sandwich from Panera Thanked jesiis for the … Continue reading →
the holidays
My Christmas in a nutshell: 16 hours of straight Fa La La La Lifetime movies. No. Freaking. Joke. Next year I go somewhere tropical if I don’t go home. I’m not fully opposed to either option at this point. I … Continue reading →
christmas memories
My parents were/are the typical “raised poor so we’ll make sure our kids never want for a single damn thing ever in life” type of people. Growing up – this was fantastic! It meant piles and piles of gifts under … Continue reading →
the eve
This isn’t my first Christmas alone. This is, however, my first Christmas without presents to unwrap. I got my gifts from Pastor Mom and BP Dad when I went home and we didn’t bother wrapping the clothes PM and I … Continue reading →
in the air
I’m at work today. For some reason I actually thought I had to work tomorrow, too, and I didn’t mind so much. Not that I’ll be sad come morning time when my alarm doesn’t go off and I instead get … Continue reading →
woof
My dogs are pretty lucky I like them. If I didn’t I wouldn’t be sitting in the dining room playing on my iMac so that they could run around and chase each other like bats outta hell. Instead I’d be … Continue reading →
bah humbug
Xmas is this weekend, right? Yeah. I could care less. Sorry for all you jesiis people out there, but I just don’t really care. To me xmas is about family and food and pretty decorations and all that jazz, but … Continue reading →
ummmm…
I went on a date tonight. And it wasn’t with Mike. But before I go there…. Yesterday was my bday. Yeah, the big 3-4. I’m not really huge on birthdays, so I don’t make a big deal of … Continue reading →
drinking the dragon’s vino
“Come upstairs and pick a bottle from the wine cellar,” he said to me. “We just have to remember to replace it or she’ll notice.” I felt like we were doing something wrong as we looked through the bottles … Continue reading →
i think i got it
I think I finally figured out who my Secret Santa was! I’m going with Jurista (for some reason the mac won’t let me link to her blog, so here – https://theweightofwhatisreal.wordpress.com/ ) and that’s my final answer. I’m actually quite surprised I … Continue reading →
dear (secret) santa:
I’m not sure why my mailman doesn’t leave my packages in the package boxes in the mail area. Instead I had to wait until the leasing office opened to get my surprise and Barista is not patient! Especially when I … Continue reading →
overheard
After Google maps failed us at 6 different exits, leading us on a 45 minute detour/wild goose chase, we finally found a Mexican restaurant in North Carolina. Let me tell you – when the chips and salsa arrived we devoured … Continue reading →
part i
Saturday was such a long, rough day. The battle between containing my excitement about seeing Mike and the busy-ness of trying to bake 120 cupcakes and deliver them in time to get to marta and then to the airport had … Continue reading →
times they are a-changin
It’s funny to me how quickly I can forget someone I was madly in love with when a new one comes a-knockin and tries to steal my heart. I guess the Mr. D closure really didn’t happen quickly, though. It … Continue reading →
who did it??
How could it possibly be that less than 15 minutes after posting my last blog about Seal the mofo shows up at my gd desk!? One of you alerted him. I just know it! Probably AR Gal…you seem like the … Continue reading →
