Top Five Friday Thursday #8: Desert Island DVDs

Posted on September 28, 2006 | Category: Top Five Friday | 17 Comments

I got my hair “highlighted” yesterday. I asked for chunky, blonde highlights, but my stylist was nervous about putting bleach on my dark color (thinking it might turn my hair orange, so she kept asking me “are you sure?”), and she went easy on me. Basically, I sat at the salon for an hour and [...]

I love my husband — reason # 8

Posted on September 27, 2006 | Category: I Love My Husband | 4 Comments

He makes me swoon. The other day, we were shopping for a new shirt and tie for this weekend’s wedding. While perusing various department stores, I got it in me that I also needed to buy some new underwear. Now, I’ve been a tried-and-true Victoria’s Secret girl for years, however, as of late, I’ve felt [...]

Going to California with an aching in my heart

Posted on September 26, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 11 Comments

I’ve been having these strange dreams lately, where I go to visit my hometown and nothing is the same as it ever was. I can’t remember how to get places, and I’m pacing the floors of an abandoned house. And I’m really frustrated to learn that my hometown is no longer my home. That the [...]

My cup runneth over with the sauciness

Posted on September 22, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 17 Comments

Just add “bootlegging” to my list of many talents. We saw Snow Patrol in concert last night, which was absolutely fabulous. Damn that “Chasing Cars” song. Why you gotta make me cry like that? Though, I narrowly avoided bitch-slapping an obnoxious woman behind me who talked trash about concert-goers who refuse to stand up during [...]

Lighten up, it’s just fashion

Posted on September 19, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 13 Comments

By now, you probably think that all I do at work is test kids’ science experiments, play with robots and toys and come up with funny pet names for the samples I ship out to foreign clients. Really, the fun projects are few and far between, so when I actually do get to step outside [...]

Moonlighting

Posted on September 18, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 5 Comments

I have a confession to make. I feel as if I haven’t been completely faithful to y’all. See, there’s this other site for which I write on occasion. And I’ve been holding out a bit, not wanting my two worlds to collide. But after tonight, it’s time for the truth. It all started a few [...]

Karma

So I’m taking a shower yesterday morning. As I’m lathering up, groggy and half asleep, I see something out of the corner of my near-sighted eye. It’s a dark object on the light fixture, and before I can zoom in and focus, I realize exactly what it is. Not wanting to compromise my naked, defenseless [...]

I wouldn’t kick Zach Braff out of bed for eating crackers, just saying

Posted on September 13, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 13 Comments

Why is Zach Braff so goddamned appealing? Is the question I ask after seeing his new movie The Last Kiss. It’s not like he’s got typical movie star good looks or that he’s such a fabulous actor. Perhaps it’s because he’s like every guy I ever had a crush on during high school and college [...]

Survey

Does anyone else wonder if when you grab a bug with a wadded up piece of toilet paper and flush him down the toilet, that maybe he’ll cling to the side of the bowl and wait for the next time you sit your lily-white ass down on the seat and exact his revenge by biting [...]

Holding out for a home life, my whole life

Posted on September 11, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 6 Comments

For reasons unknown, I’ve been seriously avoiding a long-overdue update post on the status of the house. I guess I put so much energy into the process before it actually happened that once it did finally become our home, the end result was so anticlimactic. There was no official handoff of keys or perfunctory picture [...]
