I got Cruella’s test results back today. The tumor causing her Cushing’s Disease is located in the pituitary gland, so surgery is not an option. The disease has to be managed with a chemotherapy drug called Lysodren. The induction phase will last from 1-3 weeks and will require daily meds. After induction, Cruella will go [...]
Love is in the Air – But Not for Me!
This is the time of year that everyone is getting married. Love is in the air. Well, for everyone except me it seems. And though I thoroughly enjoy my single life, I can’t help but long for the guy who will help me to realize that a partnership is better than flying through life solo. [...]

I Love My HDTV!
I was a little late to jump on the HD bandwagon, purchasing my TV just over a year ago. My old TV died a tragic death during American Idol season, and I just couldn’t bear to watch the show on the little 19″ box in my bedroom. So I made a trip to Best Buy [...]
Give Me a Break!
My friend Elliot called me “unique” today. Maybe not for the reasons I would have liked, but he definitely had a point. We were talking about my relationship issues. Yes, I will admit I have issues – the biggest being my tremendous need for alone time. Nearly every relationship begins and ends the same way [...]
Tears of Joy
I cried my eyes out tonight when Ryan Seacrest announced that David Cook and David Archuleta will be battling it out in the American Idol finale next week. I can’t think of two more deserving people. Both are incredible singers and such down to earth guys. I think this is going to be the most [...]
My Date with Denis
I absolutely love Denis Leary. I think he’s one of the funniest, sexiest guys on the planet. Well, last night he actually appeared in my dream! I was out and about in Knoxville late one night, when I just happened to see him. I introduced myself and told him what a huge fan I am. [...]
Teens Have it Made!
With all the stresses of adulthood, it sure would be nice to be a kid again. Mom and Dad paying all the bills, cooking dinner, driving us to and fro – man, we had it made, didn’t we? Spring break, summer vacation, winter holidays. Those things seem so great now, yet most of us hated [...]
Day From Hell
I think today was one of the worst days of my life. It all started when I took Cruella to the vet for the repeat of her test that got botched last week. I always have trouble getting her out of the car when we get to the vet hospital, and I can understand why. [...]
Perfume and Lingerie
I’m a huge fan of perfume. I have bottles upon bottles in my collection, and choosing one each morning always puts me in a great mood. My favorites are Happy and Happy Heart by Clinique, and Wink by Avon. I also have several amazing perfumes by Victoria’s Secret. When I pass by that store in [...]
