So I haven’t written in a while. And honestly, I was starting to feel it, like when you go give up sugar or meat for a while, there is just this void. And I wish I could say that I was sooo busy doing amazing things with my life that I just didn’t have the […]
Yesterday I was wasting time on the Internet with a pastime I love…looking at clothes and shoes that I don’t need. But I had a coupon, and free shipping, and damn it, I need a(nother) pair of black boots… So I found a pair and a jacket that I wasn’t looking for and went to […]
So I love reading all my blogs on Google Reader, and there is one called Making It Lovely that I absolutely love…and she had this list of 30 things to do before 30, and I decided, what the hell? Why not. So here is my list. I’ll start keeping tabs starting today, and hopefully have […]
Here are some pictures of the retirement party from The Company. It’s sad to see them go, because these are the people who lived through the hayday of the Golden Age of Broadcasting, and I’ve learned a lot from them.

I am like the most normal person I know. Sure, I have all the baggage that comes with a 28-year old single gal, but I’m pretty normal. So it comes to no surprise that I worry and over-analyze. I worry that I won’t have enough money to pay for my sick car, if indeed it […]
Lots of turkey = lots of fun. Memories included: Mike’s corn dip appetizer Being afraid the turkey was going to be a no-show Big ass turkey that was oh-so-good (thank goodness Grandpa Cruz’s culinary skills were passed down to one person!) Pacey barking for about 4 hours straight (not to self: feed him turkey as […]
When asked to write a biography about Grandma, I immediately went into research mode and did what most people nowadays would do: I googled her birthday. Then it hit me, Grandma was 92 years old…92! Imagine all that she lived through…and without the Internet! How did she survive?! The amount of historical events that she […]
