Early start yields exceptional breakfast

Posted in Eats, Photographs, Travel, Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 8, 2011 | 1 Comment »

I spent last week in Biloxi with my mom and had every intention of blogging about my adventures. I quickly figured out that I’d rather be having said adventures than blogging about them, however, thus the weeklong absence of posts. Let’s start with the journey. Having discovered the amazing lunches at Birmingham’s Culinard Cafe a [...]

The hilarity of site stats

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , on July 24, 2011 | 4 Comments »

My favorite part of blogging? Not the groupies (please tell me there are groupies) or the riotous after-parties (again, please let there be after-parties). It’s the site stats. Definitely the site stats. The myriad ways that people find this blog are simply fascinating and, sometimes, completely random. The most popular search terms aren’t the ones [...]

U2 in concert: just as epic as you would think

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , on July 5, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

So if I had anything as organized as a bucket list, seeing U2 live would definitely be at the top of it. Check. More about this later. I’m still processing. And recovering.

Mailbox fun

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on June 13, 2011 | 3 Comments »

Girly moment — I received my first Birchbox sample box today. If this collection is a good example of what they’ll be sending every month, then it’s totally worth the $10. It held a sample of Kate Spade Twirl (which, yes, I could have probably gotten at a department store, but then I’d have to [...]

Birthday surprise

It seems I’m the kind of woman who gets pinball machine parts for her birthday. Awesome?

A proposal to remember

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on May 30, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

I have to share two must-read accounts of a marriage proposal: his and hers. It’s my favorite kind of proposal — the kind that ends in laughter and taco sauce.

These dreams

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on May 10, 2011 | 1 Comment »

So now my recurring weird anxiety dream features a hurricane embedded with huge tornadoes. If I can work the dream about dozens of snakes coiled under the clothesline in the yard of my childhood home in Collins, Mississippi, back into the nightly lineup, I’m pretty sure I can get a discount on therapy.

Post-tornado blues

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on May 6, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

I am at a loss as to what to say about the recent tornadoes that carved a path of destruction throughout north Alabama. Our home is fine, but I have the same feeling that I had after multiple hurricanes took aim at Mobile, Alabama, when we lived there: It’s as if Mother Nature has drawn [...]

It’s not just me

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , on April 25, 2011 | 2 Comments »

This New York Times story on the non-standard sizing of women’s clothes pretty much outlines why I hate shopping for clothes. I have literally four different sizes of clothing in my closet. I can try on two pairs of pants, in the same brand, make and size but in two different colors, and one pair [...]

Triple sci-fi and calzones

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on April 24, 2011 | 1 Comment »

Successful weekend: Overloaded on Doctor Who reruns, saw Source Code (because I am apparently a total Duncan Jones fangirl), researched apocalyptic science fiction and had Easter calzones. I seem to be living the idealized life of a nerdy 12-year-old boy. And it’s rather awesome.
