Sweet Catastrophe

I just adore this.

The babies’ Birthdays are coming up in July and I’m just so excited =) I can’t believe they’re 3 and 4 years old! Jesalyn will be starting Pre-K this year and that just seems so grown up! School is just like this whole new little world that’s all your own when you’re a kid ’cause [...]

I mention over a month ago that I was applying for a better position at work. A huge chunk of people applied so they just selected a handful to interview and I wasn’t one of them, so I finally gave up. I’ve been pissed about that since I specifically asked the manager in charge if [...]

If it all works out Ken, Maurice and I have decided to look for a place together. I decided long ago that I much prefer living with guys. They can be annoying, but it just gets too personal living with girls and I have a much easier time living with guys. And I know I [...]

I spent Friday night at Pye’s drinking wine and playing wii games with a bunch of friends. I can’t remember the last time I laughed so much. I spent Saturday night at John’s playing Catchphrase and three different versions of Scene It (my team dominated ;) ) Sunday and Monday night were casual hangouts. Tuesday [...]

Playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 with Keri got me hooooked. I’ve played with Catie, too, and I dunno why but I love to be Player 2 in co-star mode. You’re not actually playing a character, but collecting star bits and items, you can actually attack some enemies or stun others to make Mario’s job easier, [...]

A glorious thing happened on my lunch break yesterday. I was at Firehouse not-so-carefully eating my sandwich (I was frustrated) when I felt something shift. My eyes got wide and I said, “I can chew!!” I think Keegan laughed at me for 5 minutes, but he understood. It’s been over 2 weeks now. The infection [...]

Anyone else completely underwhelmed by the Glee finale? It’s not that it wasn’t great, but there was just so much energy in the finale for Volume 1– it was a lot to live up to. The music was good, and gave me chills as always, but it wasn’t anything phenomenal. And there was nothing in [...]

I’m still riding that roller coaster. It’s weird because that metaphor is actually even more accurate than I initially realized. I have a love/hate relationship with roller coasters. I can ride one at one point in the day and later that very same day, I can be too terrified to ride that very same coaster. [...]

Today I read Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure. Deceptively simple and surprisingly addictive, Not Quite What I Was Planning is a thousand glimpses of humanity—six words at a time. One Life. Six Words. What’s Yours? When Hemingway famously wrote, “For Sale: baby shoes, never worn,” he proved [...]
