This post is about change (duh), but it's also so very much about me. Lately, people have voiced their concerns on how I've "changed". This is by no means a jab at any particular person, but that statement has caused quite a bit of pondering on my part in the past few weeks. Especially when... Continue Reading →
What Is Going On???
Ok, so, you woke up this morning, and what’s the first thing you did? Reached over and looked at your cell phone…probably checked Twitter and Facebook to see what everyone else is doing with their lives, right? Maybe got a little envious, because it seems like everyone else is doing great things without you. And... Continue Reading →
Warm It Up, Chris
Man. Hearing the news that Chris Kelly of Kris Kross had passed away this past Wednesday of a suspected drug overdose...well, damn (I'm not going to get into a diatribe about the evils of drug use in the entertainment industry, 'cause that's a completely different post). There just aren't many words to convey what that... Continue Reading →
All In the Name of Health
So, as some of you have gathered, I'm a little bit of an internet search engine junkie. Before the internet was mainstream, I was confined to outdated encyclopedias (remember the Encarta CD-ROMs?) to fulfill my need to know everything. The good ol' world-wide web has contributed to filling my mind with a bunch of useless (sometimes... Continue Reading →
I Tried It: L’Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier B.B. Cream
Ok, so I, like most women, have heard all the buzz about these BB, CC, HH (you get it) creams out there in the beauty world. I’ve been disappointed by new beauty products before, so I was extremely hesitant to waste my money on anything new. Because I'm only lucky in things that don't involve... Continue Reading →
The Need to Be Kneaded
A couple of weeks ago, I treated myself to a wonderful 90 minute aromatherapy massage at Massage Envy, and let me tell you, it was worth every dollar (it's also a LOT better than bothering your significant other and getting a five minute half-hearted attempt at one). I'm a member, and I pay a flat... Continue Reading →
Why Buy When You Can DIY?
I am such a little researcher. Pinterest has become my new BFF, and because I loveeee trying new things, I wanted to give you guys a dose of what has piqued my interest these last few weeks, and what I actually took the time to (attempt) to recreate. First up: homemade hummus. I am a... Continue Reading →
The Obligatory New Year’s Post
Well, this is it folks. 2012 has come to a close, and thankfully, we're all still here. For those of you who claimed 2012 as your year and have no clear progress to back that up, well, sucks for you. Please don't claim 2013 until you get to the end of it, 'k? Right now,... Continue Reading →
Thanksgiving
For the first time in years, I'm actually excited about the Thanksgiving holiday. It's been at least a decade since my family has gotten together; aunts, uncles, cousins, grandma. For many people, that can seem like a hassle, but for me, it's a blessing. The idea makes me nostalgic, reminding me of a much simpler... Continue Reading →
“When I Spit Them Lyrics…”
Today's post was going to be serious. I swear. I read something earlier in the week that got me all pissed off, and I couldn't wait to vent. I started the post, and planned on finishing it this weekend. But my weekend was so relaxing, and I couldn't bear to get myself all worked up.... Continue Reading →
