As of this past Wednesday, Brico and I have been together for four months. I try to avoid sappy posts on this blog, but today will be an exception. I miss my sweetie. Keep your fingers crossed that the custody situation will resolve itself soon. Once it does, hopefully our relationship will be back on [...]
Can You Hear Me Now?
Brico and I have a wonderful relationship with only one real problem – cell phone communication. In fact, Brico even blogged about it. For weeks, I had been complaining to Brico that he sounded like a robot when he called me. I’d answer the phone and hear R2D2 on the other end. I’d sigh, hang [...]
Go Vols!
I went to see the Vols play Marshall today. The weather was absolutely terrible. It stormed all day, and just getting downtown was a nightmare in itself. There were flooded roads all over town! On top of that, I parked on the opposite side of the river. Getting to the stadium was fine, but the [...]
Swimming 101
I think that being sick has been good for me. It has given me plenty of time to think about the things going on in my life. I’m excited to be learning to swim, but there’s something that has really disturbed me. And all this thinking has made it even more disturbing. As you know, [...]

With Someone #3
It’s Self Portrait Challenge time again! I’m late this week, but better late than never! This photo was taken on April 15, 2006. This is me with my brother Jake on his wedding day. Out of my three siblings, Jake is the only one I’m close to. It’s funny – we were never close while [...]
Random Thoughts
I know that I haven’t posted very much lately, but I’ve been extremely sick for the past week. I picked up some nasty virus much like the flu. I’m feeling much better now, except for the nagging cough and sore throat that just won’t go away. I haven’t taken a swimming lesson since last Sunday [...]
Secrets
I found this over at Addict’s place. You’re supposed to list eight secrets about yourself. Here goes… I didn’t get my period until I was 15 years old. I lost my virginity at age 21. I was in a physically abusive marriage for five years. I’ve been divorced for seven years now. I am ashamed [...]
Story Relayed By Jake
I just couldn’t help passing this little story along. My brother Jake is a manager for Walgreen’s. He sometimes calls with customer stories that just blow my mind. When he called yesterday to tell me this one, I thought I was going to die laughing. Hopefully you’ll find it just as humorous. And the best [...]
