I vote that once every 3-5 years (or so), we should be allowed to have a gigantic, wedding-style party that is all about you. Where you get to wear a gorgeous dress (if you so choose) and have wonderful food and fun dancing and be surrounded by all of your favorite people….and get presents. Because you’re [...]

Being Obsessed is an Expensive Habit!
Because, I mean….holy cow. With the expenses…of being obsessed…with something. Anything!
I love to run. Really, actually love it. But I need new running shoes. A good pair is right up there around $100. Easy. I like a specific kind of outfit when I run. The shorts need to have liners, the shirts need to [...]
Looks Like A Co-Co Nut
If you know me at all, you know that I love All Things Coconut. All Things. I love how it smells, I love how it tastes, I love how it feels. Seriously, how it feels. When I come within a half mile radius of anything Coconut, I can feel warm, tropical breezes whispering through the [...]
About Yesterday’s Post?
Hahaaaaaaa!
I am entirely, WAY TOO OPTIMISTIC AND TRUSTING.
Eff that idea. Eff it.
We’re just gonna chalk that up to a great old, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER.
It will never cease to amaze me how quickly someone can break my heart.
You know you are an adult when…
You get excited about the accomplishment of using every last drop, bite, ounce, piece, slice, niblet, portion, etc. of whatever it is you’ve purchased. Be it soap, shampoo, bread, post-it notes, ink pens, cookies, whatever.
I realized this today when I excitedly emailed Dorian asking him if we could change what we’d planned for dinner to [...]
Mmmm NyQuillllll…..
I do believe this week is swimming by in not much more than a NyQuil induced haze. I am tired, all the time. I can’t sleep through the night unless I take NyQuil Cough medicine. But NyQuil…holy cow…is much more potent than any other over-the-counter sleep aid I’ve used and I find myself stumbling bleary eyed through my [...]
Daydreaming
I work very near the airport in our city. Essentially, just down the road. And I hear flights coming in and taking off all day long. I’ve worked here long enough now that I’ve grown accustomed to the thundering of the engines and it’s not much more than faded background noise dropping off into the afternoon.
On [...]
You are My Candy Girl
This may come as a bit of a shock…but I think there is something wrong with me.
I know, I know. I’ll give you a minute to let that sink in.
I’m sure you must all be thinking, “*Gasp* What?! Something is wrong with Kristen? Oh my goodness, that can’t be! She is the most perfect creature [...]
Defensive Driving
Last night, as I was driving downtown to work out (I am still 100% sold on working out in the morning. Yes, even at 5am. But 5am comes a whole lot earlier when you’ve been up all night with a gut wrenching cough. The kind of cough where your ribs close in on themselves and you [...]
AHEM!
Hello?
Is this thing on? It is? Ok, good…
(hoists self onto MASSIVE Soap Box)
Immediate Disclaimer: None of this rant has to do with Dorian.
I’ve got a bone to pick with you Men in the crowd. Maybe not all of you. In fact, I’m confident, not all of you. But unfortunately, I think it’s a grand majority [...]
