Buckle up for some humblebragging. I could read before kindergarten. In fact, when I went into kindergarten, I once got in trouble for reading the teacher’s lesson plans. THAT WERE IN CURSIVE. In first grade, during reading time, the teacher sent me to the class with fourth- and fifth-graders to read with them. All throughContinue reading “Forever a bookworm”

New year, who dis
I’ve never been one to make a big deal out of New Year’s Eve. Sure, my friends and I have had some awesome parties for it and there was that one time on Bardstown Road, but really, it’s just another day/night for me. I do try to think of a resolution of some sort –Continue reading “New year, who dis”
49 thoughts I have had while at the gym
Can I just say, it’s amazing how much more motivation you have when you quit a job you hate and actually want to get out of bed in the morning again. Two days after I left that job, I was a member at a gym up the road from my house: Planet Fitness, which IContinue reading “49 thoughts I have had while at the gym”
One Hundred and Eighty
A week from today marks three months since I quit my job and everything changed. Before June 1, 2015..I couldn’t tell you the last time I was legitimately, not-faking-it, seriously happy. I mean, y’all know. You’ve read this blog. How many times have I talked about my depression and anxiety and the toll it wasContinue reading “One Hundred and Eighty”
The Tinder Chronicles Pt. 2
You guys, it’s hard to date these days. Anyone who says otherwise, well, send them my way then, because I obviously need a coach. Where’s Hitch when you need him? I don’t remember exactly when I got it but I have been on Tinder, I believe, for about 10 months now. And it’s been anContinue reading “The Tinder Chronicles Pt. 2”
31 thoughts one has whilst their AC is on the fritz
1. It’s kind of hot in here. 2. Yeah, I’m sweating. 3. It’s kind of like a sauna. 4. THE THERMOSTAT SAYS 84. 5. I did not set it on 84. 6. Lemme just turn it way, way down, that should work, right? 7. (Hour later) Nope. Not working. 8. The good thing about homeContinue reading “31 thoughts one has whilst their AC is on the fritz”
(Getting out of) my own way
There’s an underrated movie – the sequel to “Get Shorty.” It’s called “Be Cool” and if you haven’t watched it, you should. Even though he’s extra creepy now, John Travolta does alright in it – but the better parts in it are any featuring Vince Vaughn, The Rock or Andre 3000. Best parts (in myContinue reading “(Getting out of) my own way”
Tinderella
Once upon a time, like in any fairy tale, your heroine had had just about enough of trying to date the regular way. Fresh off the latest situation that had started out great and ended horribly (as they all do in these stories), she decided to try something new, because what the hell. And byContinue reading “Tinderella”
Wild Man Charlie
So the last time I actually sat down and wrote something for this blog was in September. And it was about my family’s dog, Lucy. The reason I haven’t really written since September also has to do with a dog. Only this time it’s my dog. That I am solely in charge of. Yes youContinue reading “Wild Man Charlie”
Big life changes – its about time
Ohhhhhh 2014… (Hey there, btw. I realize I have been slacking on this whole writing in this blog that I love and miss and think about all the time but have been a little busy for. Never fear. I’m back, bitchezzz..) OK so in 2014, a few major things happened. Numero uno:Continue reading “Big life changes – its about time”
