I had no idea when I bought Cuddles that he would be a puppy that would want me to carry him around my bedroom like he’s a baby with his little head resting on my shoulder every night when I come home from work but that’s what we do, each and every single night.  Every [...]

I was 22 and sitting in an uncomfortable chair when my counselor said some life-changing words to me: “I think you have some transference issues when it comes to how you think God views you.” I had never heard the term before but got an explanation quickly: basically I was taking the way other influential [...]

Our local Dairy Queen offers free wifi, so it’s become a popular place for the 20-something crowd.  As soon as I got off work today I met up with Katie, Cate and our friend Tiffany so we could all get some work done.  Katie had a paper to write; Cate had an application to finish [...]

I never do these types of surveys on Facebook, mainly because they take so long and are kinda pointless. But I’ve been tagged for this one a lot and, frankly, need something completely mind-numbing and pointless to write about today that won’t require me to actually, you know, think.

I had the loveliest lunch with Cousin Cate today.  We went to our favorite little downtown place and she drank this orange stuff from France and I drank lemonade and we talked about normal, girls-in-their-20s types of [...]

I’ve been trying to think of a good place to begin when it comes to writing about Starlite ending. I’ve finally given up and decided to just answer some of the questions that people have been asking lately. At some point I’ll talk more about some of them, but at least this gives us a [...]

I got a call from Cousin Cate earlier this afternoon informing me that she was nearby and, perhaps more importantly, had a baby squirrel up her pant leg. The fact that this news somehow didn’t surprise me in the least should explain a lot about Cousin Cate. When I arrived, camera in hand, Cousin Cate [...]

I was looking through a box of junk left over from college when I came across the very first column I ever wrote for our town’s local newspaper. At the start of my sophomore year, I was picked to write a weekly column about life as a college student. To this day, I have no [...]
