I don’t know what it is. I don’t understand the logic. Quite frankly, the underlying stubborn streak of it all, annoys me. But there is something in me that really rails against anything along the lines of What You Should Feel. Because what if I don’t want to feel that way? Hmm, WHAT THEN? Maybe [...]

Next Time? I’ll take VALLIUM!
Two nights ago, I had a migraine. It was a little, baby migraine. But a migraine, all the same. I have not had a migraine in a little over two years. But for about 8 months at the end of my Sr. year of school and into the fall afterward, I had at least one [...]
Great, Big, Sad Day
I feel like time is speeding by today, very slowly. That doesn’t make sense, does it? No, it does not. It’s just that, every time I’ve looked at the clock today, i’ve been impressed with how much time has lapsed since I last looked at the clock. But I am still overcome with sadness when [...]
I Think I Can!
Well, I opted to eat nothing on the morning of the run. I drank about half a bottle of water and took a couple swigs of some Diet Coke so I could wake up. Coffee was out for before the run because, let’s be honest, it makes me have to poop and I didn’t want [...]
Sometimes, You’ve Got to Fall…
Sometimes, God takes my breath away…
Sometimes, He gives me a gentle little tap on the shoulder that sends me to my knees…
Sometimes, I am so overcome by His timing that the only response I have to offer is tears…
And sometimes, on nights like last night, He whispers into my heart with such a quiet, calm, [...]
It’s Not Suppose to be Like This…
I was reading a blog entry, the other day, of a young woman whom I’d had a class with once at Cornerstone. She and her husband had been pregnant for about 10 weeks, and had a very unexpected mis-carriage. And though I cannot relate to this kind of pain, in any way, my heart just [...]
Show Me Your Smile!
I had a dentist appointment earlier today. I, of course, was dreading it but I have to admit that I was a teensy bit excited at what kind of blog post might be generated from the experience.
I hate the dentist, a lot. Who doesn’t, really? I mean, I like who my dentist is and [...]
We’ll Just Call it the Icing on the Cake
There are a couple people that I work with that are masterminds at manipulating conversations in such a way that regardless of the topic or outcome of the circumstances being discussed, they are absolutely blameless and all fault has conveniently (albeit, indirectly) been heaped on you. They are the Heapers and I, in most cases, [...]
Mr. and Mrs. Fussy Pants
Oh, I’m so happy it’s the weekend, I just can’t even tell you! I was ready for this week to be over on Tuesday!
And I feel like this week of the month is an absolute Catch 22, no matter what woman you are. My birth control package tells me it’s the week before the Yuck, [...]
Not a More Substantial Post
I’m sorry, but I just don’t have it in me.
It has been a Terrible, Awful, No Good, Very Bad day.
It began with waking up…
Progressed to walking outside to stupid cold, rainy weather…
And essentially started with the first, of what I can only imagine will become many, Torture Device Wielding Doctor Appointments. I discovered, in this [...]
