I had to go to a two-hour grad school meeting earlier tonight to learn about some new procedures and policies and such.  There were a couple hundred of us there, so they broke us into a few smaller groups and sent us to classrooms with pizza and paper plates.
We were given two paper plates; one [...]

OH, DO I HAVE A STORY FOR YOU.
Although fall technically arrived in Tennessee last week, it made its first weather appearance yesterday when I woke up to 50 degree temperatures. Seeing as fall is the best season of the year, I was almost required to celebrate its arrival by cooking tacos for my nearest [...]

So, I know it’s been well over a week since last weekend happened (like, last, last weekend) but I didn’t get to tell you about my weekend then because I was having my I Can’t Seem To Write Anything week so let’s pretend it’s a week ago and I’m just sitting down to tell you [...]

when we were jumping on someone’s trampoline…

which will be a good memory since last night…

Gosling decided to play tackle football on a wet field…

For the record, one of the [...]

For those of you who are sick of hearing about hair, I promise this is the last you’ll have to hear for awhile. But I was reading through your comments on the last few hair posts last night (more accurately, Nick was reading them to me which was hilarious because he gave each of [...]

Well, I have the finished hair product to show you, but before you see it, I would like to inform you of a few forces I had working against me:
