My Wedding Ring has magical powers. I had no idea until today. The prong on my engagement ring somehow got bent, so I dropped it off at the jeweler’s to get repaired yesterday. Since I had to take it in, we decided that Chris and I both needed newly re-coated and shiny wedding bands as […]
Parking, Dating, and Baking the Deceased.
I’m still recovering from my Blogher Adventures, I must admit. I’m This week has been made up of day of dizzying tiredness, followed by a day of relative normalness where I thought I was recovered, only to be followed by a day of dizzying tiredness. If you can have jetlag from flying within your time […]
What Goes Down, Must Come Up.
I’m sitting here at the airport, waiting to board. Which means, that by getting out my laptop and starting this post, a boarding call should be like. . .. NOW. I’m absolutely DYING for a fountain coke, but talked myself out of getting one for fear of deja vu from the flight here in which […]
What do Bloggers, Models, Cowboys and Indians Have in Common? This Post.
Yesterday, Ali and I attended/hosted our second Alabama Blogger meet-up: We had an awesome time visiting with everyone, and Ali had a BLAST playing with and talking to everyone (especially Gina, Lianne, Amy, and Valerie). In fact, she was perfectly happy, until we left: No, it wasn’t because the meet-up was over. . . it […]
Just Call Me Sherlock of Perfume.
So, Ali and I went to the mall today. We had to pick up a few things and do a bit of “Girly” shopping. (As opposed to simply hanging out at the Mall with Daddy on Friday. I prefer to shop alone. Or at least with only a two year old companion.) On a whim, […]
Side Effects May Include Blog-Related Death.
Is it just me that is completely perplexed – nay, SHOCKED even, at the stupidity of prescription drug marketing? Maybe they’re meant to be comedy routines, because they ARE entertaining. They are all starting to seem like Saturday Night Live Spoofs of themselves. First of all, let’s start with my least favorite commercial ever ever […]
The Secret Lies with Charlotte Pink Dial Foamy Soap.
So if you’ve been around for a while, you might remember that my husband has a crush. If not, go click on that link and catch up. The basic idea is that there is a perfume, somewhere out there in the world, that my husband smells periodically, and finds it the most romantic aroma in […]
The Woeful Tale of Laguna Seca Girl.
This is a guest post by my Dad. He told me this story a few weeks ago, and I have been cracking up about it ever since. In a sympathetic way, of course. So I asked him to write it up for me, which he graciously agreed to do. I find it fitting and an […]
…And Now I Must Expound.
I briefly mentioned Bob Shallow in my last post, but I feel that he deserves more analysis than I offered. Because he really is an inexplicable character. First of all: his name. It cracks me up – “Bob” = Generic, + “Shallow” = super-cheesy-fitting-for-a-salesman. THEN when you add his name to his unbelievably larger-than-life billboard […]
Three Churches and a Realtor
More crazy signs I’ve seen on our treks through Alabama as of late: For those who want to keep their self-centeredness and God in the SAME box, I recommend this Church:If you find that you just have TOO much bible in your life, go here to be set free:(I HATE that I couldn’t get a […]
