Am I the only one

who doesn’t like American Idol? I just don’t get it. I actually kind of loathe it being on. Of course the hub wants to watch (I swear, sometimes he is more girly than me….), but I might take a long bath whie its on. I deserve one. These past two weeks have been ridiculously stressful.
First, [...]

I Hereby Resolve…

I’ve never really been one for New Year’s resolutions. I usually just make something up at the last minute, and then either give up because its impossible or give up because I just don’t care that much.
This year though, there are actually things that I want to change about myself. In general I’m happy with [...]

Project!

The boy and I have been wanting to get a chair for the living room, but we can’t agree on a style for the life of us (I favor something like a Queen Ann, he wants a huge, ugly  Lazy Boy type thing).  I saw this chair at a yard sale this summer though and [...]

Happy Christmas!

My Christmas Eve will be spent in the way that has become tradition over the past few years… gorging myself on lasagna (sausage and pepperoni! this is no time for diets!) and drinking copious amounts of Delirium Noel (look! pink elephants on the label- you know this stuff is good…) and Bailey’s while exchanging gifts [...]

Quiet Mornings

Is there anything better than a quiet morning spent with your husband and dog, a cup of coffee, and a fresh out of the oven croissant (made by moi)? Yeah, I didn’t think so.

Do you ever feel like

Do you ever feel like just packing everything up, going to a random new place, and starting your life over? I do. Kind of hard to do when you have a husband and a dog though.  *sigh*
(And yes, I realize I just got back from a 2 month trip, but its not exactly the same [...]

Spring will come again

And there will be pretty flowers and sunshine.

so much time, so little to do

Yeah, you read that right. I have some time off work to make up for the insanity that was the last 3 months. I don’t know what to do with myself. I apparently need some sort of schedule in order to function properly. Otherwise I just veg on the couch all day and watch trashy [...]

I’m still alive

If anyone’s been missing me, I’m still alive… just been working my ass off on a campaign. A few quick observations before I crash for the night…
-Sometimes I really hate being a woman in politics. I went to a fundraiser the other night, and the lobbyists were all being so freaking obnoxious to me. They [...]

PUMA

For such an ugly suit, it actually photographed nicely.
I’m honestly really mad that my delegates didn’t get to vote. Acclamation, my ass. WTF is that all about? Regardless of the outcome, i would really have liked for my vote to count.
I love her, and you know what? Maybe I did it more for her than [...]
